The blood of the Syrians has often cast in mass killings during the thirty-year rule of Hafez al-Assad (1970-2000). It is not surprising to see Bashar al-Assad to resume the bloody legacy of his father, with the same barbarity, in the province and the city of Deraa. The few differences, all relative, take the personality of an heir unwise, inexperienced, arrogant, short-sighted and has a fantastic attitude, which keeps the illusion of popularity.
But eleven years in power of the son should be well within the continuity of the father. Bashar al-Assad said during a meeting of the Baath party leadership: "Hafez Assad of Syria govern from the grave." For these threats, the son said clearly that perpetuated the tyranny of the father.
According to those who know him well, Assad's son, in his great narcissism tends increasingly to kill the father, not by hatred or to erase his memory, but to exceed it. The most brutal forms of tyranny in 2003, in response to a question from the New York Times on the succession of Mubarak, the reporter asked Bashar Assad: "The Egyptians say: we are not in Syria.
Does it upset you? "He replied:" No, because it's not my father brought me to power. When he died, I had no official position. So the Syrian people need to ask. If you watch CNN or other stations which interrogate the Syrians, you will see that the people who chose me, not Assad! "So the son did not just remind people of the decades power coup of his father.
He chose the most brutal forms of tyranny and still more derogatory to the stature Arab, regional and international Syria. An example is used to compare policies of father and son: the recent decision of the Council of Ministers to lay off dozens of employees because they signed petitions in opposition or calls for reform.
In the 1970s, at the beginning of the "corrective movement" (as Hafez Assad meant it in a coup), Ministries of Education and Higher Education, directly inspired by the Baath party took avaint a series of measures to prevent a large number of teachers Communists or Islamists in the mutant to other departments.
Thus, an English professor found himself inspector of supply, while a mathematics teacher was transferred to religious affairs and a professor of history at the Ministry of Electricity! The power and sought to prevent the political risks that these teachers were running, not to punish for their political affiliation or their ideas.
However, Assad's son's decision to dismiss a teacher for having signed a statement, even if the professor does not belong to any opposition party, now shows that the act of expressing an opinion not only exposes the citizens to be gagged , house arrest, imprisoned or brought to justice, but also and primarily to be deprived of livelihood.
The message is clear: we stand for the country and state, and that does not comply with our policy and chanted: "God! Syria! Bashar! and that's it! "be deprived of everything. The protesters, they have replaced "Bashar" with "Freedom." In ordering the security services to shoot live ammunition at demonstrators in Deraa [March 24] and special units to attack the old mosque in the city, causing death within its walls, the son Assad crossed the Rubicon and drew a line of blood between him and his people.
He pitched three nails in the coffin of his regime, destined to fall sooner or later. The first nail is the assertion that the insurgency is being provoked by "infiltrators" or "agents", since the people as a whole likes the president, as indicated by his portraits on the walls, flanked " We love you! "This" certainty "has convinced the dictator and his advisers that the band lost should be treated by a policy of immediate eradication.
Even friends of the regional plan, as Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan, have found offensive the use of live ammunition from the first large peaceful demonstration, which left four dead within hours. Defiance of collective memory The second nail is to ignore the symbolic significance of the attack on a mosque where refugees were wounded and not even citizens armed with stones and could not do any harm to military units that encircled the building.
Adding humiliation to injury, the cameras filmed the power in the mosque money and weapons that "infiltrators" would have received from abroad. Assad has not learned the lessons simple examples of Tunisian, Egyptian, Yemeni and Libyan. It also seems to have forgotten the wisdom of his father, who avoided investing mosques.
It is true that a gang of spoiled sheikhs, courtiers and sycophants of the regime observed the silence, like other men of religion Arab influential and respected, like Sheikh Qaradawi [Egyptian preacher on al-Jazeera] or Hassan Nasrallah [Hezbollah leader]. The third nail finally is the contempt of any collective memory of the Syrian people, as evidenced by the choice of General Rustom Ghazali [head of intelligence] as a mediator with the people of Deraa.
While this "mediator" - one of the worst agents of tyranny - was exercising his talent for negotiation, special units have been ordered to encircle the city, cutting off electricity, telephone and Internet to commit a massacre in the Al-Omari few hours later.
