On Insight SBS Sydney, an open discussion about the Syrian conflict took place on October 30, 2012. The audience consisted mostly of Australians of Syrian descent. In a live interview with Mohamad from Aleppo, Syria, he states that the so-called "Free Syrian Army" (FSA) is the one terrorizing the civilian population, they occupy their homes by force, and they shell on Christian-majority neighborhoods driven by their sectarian Saudi-Wahhabi fundamentalist ideology.

He states that he stands firmly with the Syrian government against the FSA, and he - a Sunni Muslim himself - would much prefer a secular government that ensures ethnic and religious diversity such as the current one over a monolithic and extremist Taliban-like or Saudi-like government being advanced by the Salafis that are paid for by Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Turkey and supported by NATO and the West.
