Pro-justice congratulates all the Syrians in Syria and in the diaspora on the Evacuation Day, Syrian National Day. Once again the Syrian observe this occasion while their suffering increases on daily bases. The war in Syria is still on; death surrounds the Syrians everywhere; and an increasing number of Syrians are still losing home and moving from a place to another seeking safety and security, with little luck.
The prisons are still full and every day the Syrian families are losing their loved member to detention and torture and are still receiving the sad news of their beloved family members’ death in the prison.
Demographic change is still occurring and Syrian refugees cannot return to their homes because they do not have a home anymore. If they do, they will not be safe if they return. But if they stay in the diaspora, their life is not any better. In the camps, they face sickness, humiliation, fear, and the cruel weather.
More and more, Syria is becoming a failing investment for the big players. When it was a promising enterprise, stakeholders tried their luck in the investment there. However, when the losses loomed, they raced out of the project.
But most importantly, the country now has lost its independence again. The Assad regime has given away the country’s sovereignty and independence to a new kind of colonialism: the Russian and the Iranian. Both powers are now competing to have a bigger bite of control over the country.
On this day in 1964, the Syrian people savored the taste of freedom after 25 years of the French mandate. However, while the French mandate was a cruel occupation, it brought us modernism, the press, the political parties, and the parliament. Russia and Iran, on the other hand, are destroying our infrastructure and economy, killing our people, spreading the ugly sectarianism, and staining the history of the country.
The Syrian people, who revolted against the French and got their independence and who revolted against one of the most savage and barbaric regime in history, will not surrender now to a inferior and eviler kind of occupation. And again the Syrians shall overcome.
