On 26 February the People of the Syrian Arab Republic will hold a referendum about a carefully crafted draft constitution. (1) A draft constitution that renders more liberties and rights to all people of Syria, than the constitutional rights enshrined in the constitutions of Saudi Arabia and Qatar. Arab neighbors that are at the forefront of a relentless covert war of terror and attempted subversion against Syria. Waiting for the referendum, and for the word “go”, are also 40.000 NATO mercenaries, the vast majority of them Arabs, who are massed in a military staging area along the Jordanian-Syrian Border, and ready for the attempt to unleash a campaign of murder and terror that is supposed to become the “event” which those who are waging the war on Syria need to stage a media campaign that will propagandize citizens of NATO member states into “demanding” that NATO will wage yet one more “humanitarian war”.
What is most shocking for me today is remembering the cries and shouts of Palestinian men, women and youth, shouting “where are the Arabs, where are the Arabs, why did they desert us “. Yes, the Israeli Army had invaded Lebanon and Beirut. Yes, the Israeli Army had surrounded and sealed of Sabra and Shatila, and yes there were Israeli troops inside Sabra and Shatila. Yes, Israeli officers, first and foremost Ariel Sharon had command responsibility.
When that is said, Arabs must face the fact, that the bulk of the rapes, murders and massacres were committed by Arabs. By Arabs who were dancing a dance macabre with their Zionist friends. The fact that there are by far too many Arabs who are willing agents of Zionism and US-Imperialism must and can only be faced and addressed by Arabs. This much denied and uncomfortable truth may feel like a slap in the face for many Arabs, and one can hope it wakes them up from their slumber and comfort of blaming all evils on foreign elements. Foreign elements, as was the case in Sabra and Shatila, use Arabs to murder Arabs; willing Arabs. It is a truth that leaves Arabs with two choices. Face it and stand united as Arabs, or continue being laughed at by Zionists and Imperialists who strip sale your nations and laugh while Arabs rape and murder Arabs wives, while Arabs destroy Arab nations, while Arabs torture Arabs, while Arabs sale out on anything Arab, including Palestine.
“Arab civilization, which is part of human heritage, has faced through its long history great challenges aimed at breaking its will and subjecting it to colonial domination, but has always risen through its own creative abilities to exercise its role in building human civilization.”
“The Syrian Arab Republic is proud of its Arab identity and the fact that its people are an integral part of the Arab nation. The Syrian Arab Republic embodies this belonging in its national and pan-Arab project and the work to support Arab cooperation in order to promote integration and achieve the unity of the Arab nation.”
“The Syrian Arab Republic considers international peace and security a key objective and a strategic choice, and it works on achieving both of them under the International Law and the values of right and justice.”
“The Syrian Arab role has increased on the regional and international levels over the past decades, which has led to achieving human and national aspirations and achievements in all fields and domains. Syria has occupied an important political position as it is the beating heart of Arabism, the forefront of confrontation with the Zionist enemy and the bedrock of resistance against colonial hegemony on the Arab world and its capabilities and wealth. The long struggle and sacrifices of our people for the sake of its independence, progress and national unity has paved the way for building the strong state and promoting cohesion between the people and their Syrian Arab army which is the main guarantor and protector of the homeland’s sovereignty, security, stability and territorial integrity; thus, forming the solid foundation of the people’s struggle for liberating all occupied territories.”
To those young, idealistic men who are waiting in the military staging areas outside Syria, and those already taking actively part in the attempted subversion one is tempted to say: “It is up to you to decide if you wish to be remembered as Soldiers of Zionism and proponents of an endless Sabra and Shatila in the entire Arab Region. A Super Sabra and Shatila, where Arab massacres Arab and Arabs rape Arabs wives while Zionists and Imperialists laugh behind your back”.
To those Muslim Brothers, Al Qaeda Cadres, to the Saudi, Qatari, and Jordanian Aristocrats of Her Majesty Queen Elisabeth’s and the City of London´s Mercy, to those dressing in Arab Dress at Arab League´s meetings while selling everything that is truly Arab to Zionism ? “High Treason and a Disgrace for the entire Arab People“. “A smelly old Zionist Shoe for you.”
