Description

News reports from Damascus in Beirut Saturday said that the wave of protests against the regime is growing bigger and bigger by the day despite government promises of concessions and reforms. From the epicenter in the southern town of Deraa, the protests have spread to other Syrian cities including Hama in central Syria, Aleppo and the capital Damascus, facing President Bashar al-Assad with the deepest crisis of his 11 years in power. The story dominated most of the Lebanese broadcast media Saturday (the print media did not publish because of a holiday). The pan-Arab daily AL HAYAT reported dozens of people were killed over the past week in and around the city of Deraa (at least 50), and there were reports of more than 20 new deaths on Friday, during demonstrations that would have been unthinkable a couple of months ago. There were also protests in the capital Damascus and in Hama, a northern city where in 1982 the forces of Assad's father killed thousands of people and razed much of the old quarter to put down an armed uprising by the Islamist Muslim Brotherhood. Government officials accused armed opponents of taking part in demonstrations and they justified the use of force. TV clips showed tens of thousands of people who marched on Friday during funerals for demonstrators killed earlier in the week. Inspired by successful uprisings against authoritarian rule in Egypt and Tunisia, the mourners chanted "Freedom, freedom."
