There is no power to be ascribed to Esad, Putin has the power. The minute Putin withdraws his support from Syria, the regime will be overthrown. Syrian dissidents should back Putin.

The increase in the number of people that stand against, that talks sharp and harsh words, that displays offensive manners would increase the good deeds a Muslim attains.

According to what has been foretold in the hadiths, his opponents would never be able to give any harm to Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh).

Adverse explanations bring about wealth and power. It brings about vigilance. It brings about confidence in our people. It is beneficial, not harmful.

The speeches of the opposition keep our people sharp and alive.

It is beneficial to have opposition. It would strengthen the government indirectly. But it would not be right to carry out studies that might weaken the government. The wise thing to do is to strengthen the hand of the government against both domestic and foreign forces.

We should support our government very strongly as a nation. The government can be criticized but a profound opposition is unnecessary. Some people are attempting to wear out the government with artificial and bogus issues. We need to be alert in the face of such plots.

It is always good to have a sound opposition to the government but this opposition should not be distructive.

It is not acceptable to make opposition to everything, one should support what is right.

The existence of opposition is a blessing for those in power. The opposition makes it possible to see what cannot be seen. And that strengthens those in power.

The opposition's giving voice to some risks is beneficial and good for the government.

Opposition is what the governments need the most. The stronger the opposition is in a country the more beautiful and prosperous that country would become. A government without an opposition would be dreadful. For instance North Korea is terrifying, may God forbid. They have no opposition. Anyone making a sound against the government loses his life. In Turkey everyone is allowed to say whatever he/she likes.

If it is possible to carry out strong opposition without insulting anyone, as that means there is democracy in that country. The existence of an opposition is a blessing.

Instead of being against someone collectively, it is far more right to benefit from his reasonable ideas.

A Turkey with multiple voices is good. Every political party must preserve its own understanding of politics; this is Turkey's own wealth. This multi-voice structure and the existence of a strong opposition is what made the coup mentality ineffective.

Opposition is righteous as long as it is based on righteous grounds. This is also what befits Turkey.

A righteous and honest criticism is supported but opposing merely to stir up sedition and disorder is a disgrace.

The fact that the opposition exists in Turkey is one of the strongest evidences that democracy exists. It should be promoted.

Opposition from inside or outside would always bring prosperity to a political party as long as it is national and local.

Having a strong opposition shows that Turkey has democracy. Therefore our brothers should not be bothered with opposition.

The most effective solution to a military coup is a political attitude embracing people from all segments of thought without excluding anyone.

Turkey should act in unity. This period we are going through necessitates the government and opposition parties to act as one.

We don't want any dissident voices to be silenced. An abundance of dissident voices is the beauty of democracy.

Opposition is necessary for progress and development. But it is important to be constructive and positive at all times.

It is a righteous demand to ask for perfection in judicial system as long as it in line with laws. Opposition brings democratic opulence.
