Lina Sergie Attar:
'History is long. No people in the world knows this fact better than the Syrians. Our memories, however, are short. We forget and we forgive. Even after being forsaken by the world, we still try to relate to you. To tell you the the truth about Syria: in a book of names of the dead; in the hundreds of YouTube videos that are uploaded every single day by moderate Syrians you claim don’t exist; in Kafranbel’s unrelenting banners and cartoons raised every Friday without fear of Assad’s bombs, ISIL’s beheadings, or the U.S.-led coalition’s drones.
Syrians are no longer a people of the past or the present. They are a people in limbo, waiting to emerge from of their country’s blood and ashes, from of the world’s hypocrisy, from barbaric extremism and ruthless tyranny.'
