Iranians teaching Syrians how to knock on a door & make an arrest!

Now this is 'news'. Until very recently, Syrian security forces made arrests by sending invites to the designated suspect and attached an RSVP number & card. Recycled news on Syria, with distorted names and places are not getting primetime slots anymore.
"...A senior western diplomat in Damascus expanded upon assertions,(that) mass arrests carried out by door-to-door raids, similar to those that helped to crush Iran's "green revolution" in 2009, have been ramped up in the past week.... adding that the personnel were not involved in any physical operations on the ground and numbered in the few hundreds (they sent illustrated manuals?) ... Last month White House officials made similar allegations about Iranian assistance for the regime, particularly in terms of intercepting or blocking internet, mobile phone and social media communications between the protesters and with the outside world. But the officials did not provide hard evidence to support their claims..."
