A Human Being’s Revolution for Life
The 2nd Anniversary of the Syrian Revolution
Day 1: 15 March 2013
Blue will be used as the defining colour of this day in reference to the colour used in the UN’s logo as a reminder of its role to protect human rights and defend liberty.
The Syrian people felt betrayed. International conventions and treaties which were put in place to defend human rights were all but ignored in the face of the economic and political interests of the world’s powers. The Syrian people felt that these treaties are nothing but pieces of paper which are taken out of the drawer or hidden according to the wishes of those powers. Meanwhile, international humanitarian organisations have abandoned their true mission under political and logistic pressures to become unjustifiably silent and almost obsolete towards what is happening in Syria. The martyrs, detainees, and displaced refugees of the Syrian people have become nothing but numbers that are collected by these organisation at the end of each day, without working on any real solution or playing a significant role to stop the bloodbath and cycle of destruction.
On this day we want to send our message as human beings directly to our fellow human beings bypassing governments, politics, statements, and empty promises and condemnations. We scream out to all of humanity to move and respond to our tragedy and stand besides us as one against injustice, indignity, and cheap death, to support us in our revolution – the revolution of a human being for life.
