They neither gained the nation\u2019s support nor were they spared from his treachery.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">But until the morning of his flight, he caused no alarm for anyone!<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Then the revolution triumphed.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">The rightful owners returned to their homes, families, and memories.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">They were incredibly civilized, conducting one of the most merciful liberations in modern history!<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">They did not attack the minority that tormented them for fifty years.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">They did not destroy shrines or prevent anyone from practicing their rituals.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">And yet, the planet panicked!<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Damascus became a hub for diplomats from all corners of the earth. Everyone wanted to know how they would govern their country!<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">They were the talk of television channels, dominating headlines.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">The BBC conducted an interview with Ahmed Al-Sharaa, bombarding him with questions that reeked of condescension.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">The man was composed in his responses, diplomatic when cornered to provide answers that could be weaponized against him. He seemed well-prepared, likely using the Idlib period to organize his thoughts and polish his answers.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">But the two most revolting questions were:<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">&#8220;Will you allow women to learn?&#8221;<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">&#8220;Will you allow people to drink alcohol?&#8221;<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Suddenly, this world became deeply concerned about Syrian women\u2019s right to education!<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">But where was this concern for their right to live?<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">For thirteen years, they were bombed with barrel bombs and chemical weapons!<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">For thirteen years, they were widowed and saw their children murdered!<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">For thirteen years, they were imprisoned and raped!<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Not a single soul in this world took action.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">No feminist movements convened a single conference for them.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Europe did not rally to their cause as it did for Ukraine.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Even mourning was too much to grant them\u2014no one shed a tear for them!<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Now, however, this world is gravely concerned, asking: Will Syrian women have the right to education?<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">This deceitful West did not weep for Afghan women as they were killed by American forces. But as soon as America withdrew from Afghanistan, the world suddenly discovered that Afghan women needed their rights protected!<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">And who would they protect them from?<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">From their fathers, brothers, husbands, and sons!<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Did anyone in this depraved West cry for the women of Gaza as they\u2019ve been annihilated for over 440 days?<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">But as soon as the war ends, the women of Gaza will suddenly have rights that must be demanded!<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Will you allow people to drink alcohol?<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Where were you when the butcher drank their blood before your very eyes?<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Where were you when men tasted humiliation in prisons?<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Where were you when women drank bitterness and sorrow?<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Where were you when children choked on their tears?<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">You left them to their oppressors for fifty years, allowing them to do as they pleased.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">When they revolted, you sent your fleets to kill them and your forces to guard the oil refineries!<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">And now you come asking them about women\u2019s education and drinking alcohol?<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">This West has no shame!<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By: Adham Sharkawy Fifty years of Baathist rule!
