FSA terrorists attack ancient convent in Saidnaya, home of Syria’s recently erected tallest Jesus statue.
The Cherubim convent situated on the highest summit of the Qalamoun mountains has recently erected a towering Jesus statue in Syria, even larger than that in Rio de Janeiro. However, militants from the Obama-armed and funded Free Syrian Army (FSA) have been eyeing the convent for a while. They have attempted multiple times to get to the convent, especially by targeting Syrian Army tanks stationed outside the convent whose aim is to protect the ancient religious site from extremist Wahhabi militants fighting in the ranks of the FSA and their al-Qaeda allies.
