President Assad الرئيس الأسد

الرئيس الأسد, فهو لم يذهب الى سوريا. كما تحاول خنق الديموقراطية بالقوة من دون ان ينجح. الرجاء اعتبار مجلس
المصالحة, او ما شئتم تسميتها. ولا بد أن نزاهة بأن الديمقراطية في سورية. السلام تتوقف على ذلك. ومن ضمن ذلك انشاء قوة لكم. من اجل الانسانية, ونطلب منكم ذلك.

It is not going well for Syria. The attempt to stifle democracy by force is not succeeding. Please consider a Council of Reconciliation, or whatever you wish to call it. There must be an honest, recognized democracy in Syria. Peace depends upon it. It is within your power to create this. For the sake of humanity, we ask that you do so.
