I dedicate this post to Ali Farzat, a Syrian political cartoonist, who speaks outright against the regime, or more appropriately I should say, draws his views against the regime (below are images of some of his work, taken from his website). Yesterday, Ali Farzat was beaten up savagely by the Syrian security forces and subsequently left on a Damascus road, where people then took him to hospital to be treated.
As always, we should admire the courage and bravery of our fellow Syrians, for risking their lives to demand freedom and dignity from a brutal repressive regime.
