“Those who cannot remember the past, are condemned to repeat it.”
-George Santayana
The Syrian conflict began around March of 2011. According to the United Nations, between 20,000-40,000 people have been killed and about 1.5 million people have been displaced.
As we read the news headlines about the Syrian conflict and we talk to our family living in Aleppo and throughout Syria, we find ourselves confused. What is the truth? The media leads us to believe that the conflict began as a civil war where protestors were demanding the resignation of President Bashar al-Assad. There have been sporadic news reports in America of the Syrian government’s army using force against unarmed protestors. From a distance, of course, this sounds wrong and must be stopped.

El tirano de Qatar recibido con alfombra roja en Gaza mientras Israel bombardea
22nd October, 2012
Los enemigos del pueblo árabe se han repartido armoniosamente los papeles. Mientras la aviación israelí asesina selectivamente a los dirigentes y patriotas recalcitrantes que no quieren reconocer la ocupación de la Palestina árabe por la entidad sionista con el aval del imperialismo occidental, el tirano emir qatarí Al Tani es recibido en la franja de Gaza por los dirigentes de la filial palestina de los Hermanos Musulmanes, el partido Hamas. Además los escuadrones de la muerte dirigidos por Turquía y la CIA asesinan a revolucionarios palestinos hermanados en el combate glorioso de Siria contra el imperialismo y el sionismo. El FPLP ha salvado su honor al declinar participar en la comedia de recibir con “honores” al tirano sangriento Al Tani al que le chorrean las manos de sangre del pueblo libio, sirio, bahreiní y yemenita. El imperialismo puede dominar y dividir a las masas árabes gracias a la intervención de petrotiranos como Al Tani que dirigen entidades tan artificiales y neocoloniales como Israel. Al Tani se presenta en Gaza con las maletas llenas de petrodólares con los que sobornar a los dirigentes de Hamas.
