Greetings from Australia/Philippines and welcome to the free world. Note that you are currently free ALREADY, despite the fact that you haven't YET even held elections. That is because you are "not subjugated" and you can feel that. Here is some Arabic for you: harib al ist3bad In English, that is "fight subjugation". Thankyou for your bravery of standing up for freedom against impossible odds. I'm so sorry you had to fight virtually alone. Note that I tried my best to get the Australian military to come to your aid. I am sending you a photo of me holding a one-man protest in Auburn, Sydney, NSW, Australia in 2012. Unfortunately I was unable to inspire my countrymen or even my own family to support me. Believe me I did my best. I literally couldn't think of anything else to do. My headband is supposed to say "I love Syria" - but I don't speak Arabic so don't know for sure. My Egyptian neighbor wrote it for me (I was living in Lidcombe at the time). Note that I am not Syrian or Arab - I just don't like cruel dictators, which I consider to be modern-day slavery. Please let me know if I can help preserve your existing freedom. Thanks. Paul.

So if you look closely, I crossed out LIBYA and wrote SYRIA. Also note that I alternated between AIR and GROUND support because at the time, the Libyans looked like they couldn't win with only air support. BFN. Paul.
