Syria must avoid violence
Syria should not take Libya as a leading example because the bloodshed in the latter resulted in the killing of over 25,000 people and had led to the intervention of foreign powers which are now competing for rebuilding contracts in Libya.
Syria is bigger in size and plays a role in the peace process in the Middle East and hence, the Tunisian and Egyptian examples are far better for the country and the people. In both Tunisia and Egypt, the regimes were overthrown by the local people’s power without the intervention of any other country.
Also, the Syrian regime must avoid using violence against its people, because it is violence that forces people to seek external support to help them and free them.
There is no doubt that the killing of more Syrians and more internal destruction will give enough justification and legitimacy for international intervention, which we hope will happen with the full support and supervision of the United Nations.
