Syrians are on the Move (255)
Dara’a. The city remains under siege. Snipers occupy Minarets and rooftops of official building, tanks are seen everywhere, and the army remains stationed on every street corner. Thousands of security men are roaming the city outskirts for any sign of trouble. Syrian TV is filming empty streets to show that it has pulled from Dara’a. Further, many people from Dara’a have complaining of robbing their homes of valuables such as gold by security men doing house-to-house searches.
The Savagery of Assad. Al-Jazeera is reporting the regime is trying to deliver the dead to next of kin in Dara’a but many are refusing because torture signs can be seen on their bodies and some even had their eyes removed probably while still alive. How is that Louboutin shoe fit you Asma against the background of those primitive brutes employed by your husband?
Demonstrations. Calls for demonstrations across the country have been issued for tomorrow.
Demanding Accountability. The High Council of the Alawites has yet to issue a statement in regard to the killing of Syrians by the Assad regime. Syrians on Facebook are demanding the Council takes a public position in regard to the terror of Assad instead of its deafening silence.
Currency Exchanges. Several companies have closed in the last week for lack of business. Foreign currency has become as scarce as a decent security man. At official banks, the maximum amount of US Dollars one can purchase is $1,000. In the black markets, the exchange rate of Dollar to Lira has hit a high of close to 52, which has not been seen since 2006.
Facebook. The regime is collecting IP addresses of Facebook users in Syria by replacing Facebook Security Certificate with their own.
Suleymanyeh-Iraq. The majority Kurdish town demonstrated yesterday in support of the Syrian Revolution. Included in the demonstration were several NGO and civil society organizations.
History Note. During French mandate (mid-thirties), Syrians who revolted would hide in Mosques for protection and French soldiers would respect the sanctity of a house of worship by waiting outside. Compare that to the Assad occupation where there are no limits and no sanctity.
