Connections with other opposition groups

The Movement for Justice and Development in Syria was co-founded by Anas Al-Abdah and his brother Malik Al-Abdah, the former currently chairing it.[5] While Anas Al-Abdah is also a signatory[vague] of the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights[6] and secretary of the Damascus Declaration Support Committee in the UK,[7][better source needed] his brother Malik set up the London-based Syrian opposition satellite channel Barada TV.[citation needed]

Controversies

Classified U.S. diplomatic cables, provided by the anti-secrecy Web site WikiLeaks, show that the U.S. State Department has funneled $6 million to Barada TV between 2006 and 2011 to operate the satellite channel and finance other activities inside Syria, The Washington Post reported. The State Department refused to comment on this allegation[8] and the Movement denied that it was true. [9]
