Commenting on the video, Ribal Al-Assad, Director of the ODFS, said:
"I condemn the terrorism being perpetrated by the Syrian regime and the Syrian opposition. I also condemn the Jihadist infiltration of Syria, which is taking the country towards an all out civil war. Whether it is al-Qaida, or non al-Qaida affiliated Salafi Wahabi groups - the fact is that they are all Islamist Jihadist groups.
"The contents of these videos should serve as warning to the international community that some of the Syrian 'opposition' are not democrats and are working for a theocracy. Advocating the hatred and killing of minorities on sectarian or religious grounds is not the basis of democracy. The majority of the Syrian people do not want a theocracy.
"There is no military solution to this conflict. A diplomatic solution based on the conditions set out in the Kofi Annan Plan is the only way forward. If an all out civil war in Syria and the region is to be averted then all parties- the regime, the opposition and their outside backers must de-escalate the violence and work towards a ceasefire.This is the only way to start a political process leading to a peaceful inclusive democratic transition, to a national unity government, and to democracy and freedom. The alternative is a dangerous and lasting destabilisation of Syria and the Middle East
"I call on all the Syrian opposition to unite onto one platform and work together for a peaceful solution".
