Voice of Protest Murdered in Syria
By Micah Halpern

Thursday July 28, 2011

I've Been Thinking:

The body of Ibrahim Qashoush body was found in the Assi river in Hama. His throat had been cut out.

Qashoush was the voice of the movement in Syria to oust dictator Bashar Assad. It was Qashoush who wrote the famous song "Get Out Bashar" that was sung and played on loud speakers at all the rallies and demonstrations.

Your legitimacy here has ended
Get out Bashar
Bashar you're a liar
To hell with you and your speech
Freedom is at the door
Time to leave Bashar
Mahar you're a coward
You're an agent of the US
Syrians won't be humiliated
Get out Bashar

Qashoush was probably taken by the secret police, murdered then dumped in the river that flows through his home town. It was a signal from regime. It is a threat. The regime is cracking down even more. Assad and his regime understand the rules of the game of survival - the longer he stays in power the harder it will be to oust him.
