Rethinking the Syrian Revolution: How the Left Misread Syria spectrejournal.com/rethinking-t...

Amer Matar from the Syrian Prisons Museum was arrested by the Syrian authorities. Freedom for Amer!

"A people that stops asking questions stops participating in its future. It becomes a spectator to its own story. We cannot allow that to happen. Not after everything we've sacrificed... A new Syria is still possible, but only if we refuse to stay silent." www.hurriya.net/post/syria-s...

Prior to the Suwayda events, the majority of Druze-Syrians disliked Al-Hijri, were optimistic of the state, and fierce advocates for a united Syria. Following the massacres, and the disgusting attempt to whitewash them, that majority feels betrayed. And the truth is, they were.

Horrific video emerged of Syrian security forces killing a medic in Sweida hospital last month - confirming what we already knew from many testimonies. Those responsible must be held to account

Heartbreaking news that the brave Anas Al Sharif was killed. Israel has consistently targeted journalists so that the world will not see the genocidal violence it is inflicting on the people of Gaza.
