Al-Manna`

After Haytham Al-Manna` (the courageous Syrian dissident) signed the agreement with Burhan Ghalyun, he has been vilified by Syrian March 14 intellectuals.  I could not believe the venom of such attacks.  I have not seen such Stalinist dogmatic intolerance in political rhetoric since I last read the mouthpiece of Hariri family in Lebanon.  March 14 of Syria (dominated by religious reactionaries and their liberal lackeys) clearly offer us another version of the Ba`th rule.  The Syrian people deserve better: neither the Asad dynasty, nor the Syrian National Council and their intellectual goons.
