Describing an extensive conspiracy that supposedly reaches the highest corridors of power, a paranoid Syrian man told reporters Tuesday he believes the government is out to get him. Im telling you, theyre monitoring everything we do, and their goal is to eliminate anyone and everyone who stands in their way, said wide-eyed conspiracy theorist Naji Hamed Yussif, 32, who peeked out his window blinds while explaining his belief that the government now controls the media and is actively working to shut down the activities of the opposition. Were talking about powerful individuals who wouldnt hesitate to send in their thugs, round us all up, and exterminate us like rats. And dont try to tell me the presidents not in on itthis thing goes all the way to the top. At press time, Yussif could not be reached for further comment.
