The Syrian situation

It is no secret that the situation in Syria over the past 22 months has degenerated in the wrong direction. Several elements have intruded into Syria, which are completely alien to the Syrian society and do not match with its fabric and culture. As such, it is the duty of each and every Syrian to identify, reject and fight back those harmful elements.

On the other hand, hiding or distorting established facts - the existence of the abovementioned elements - serves no purpose and changes nothing on the ground. Denying is unhelpful.

Syria is at stake, and the situation therein needs honesty and wisdom. It is time to save the very existence of Syria and the Syrian society.
