Mar. 16, 2011: Syrians stage sit-in outside Assad interior ministry
The 16th of March marks the ‎sixth anniversary of the sit-in ‎staged in Damascus outside the Assad interior ministry by relatives of the ‎political prisoners detained by ‎Assad terrorists.‎

The sit-in was the first of its ‎kind in Syria after 40 years of ‎Assad iron grip and brutal role. It came ‎a day after the demonstration ‎that took place in al-Hamidiyya ‎market in the heart of Damascus, ‎when tens of ‎peaceful ‎protesters ‎marched and chanted: “Where ‎are you Syrian?” to encourage ‎more peaceful ‎protesters ‎to ‎join ‎them to demonstrate against ‎Assad regime. ‎

Assad paramilitary terrorists, the ‎so-called Shebiha, dispersed the ‎peaceful sit-in detaining 32 of the participants.    ‎

Those who staged the ‎sit-in were accused of ‎humiliating the dignity of the ‎Assad state, stirring up ‎sectarianism and disrupting the ‎relations between the ‎components of the Syrian ‎people.  ‎

Suhir al-Atasi, four family ‎members of the detained-time ‎Dr. Kamal al-Laboani; (Omar, ‎Ruba, Leila and Ammar), Nabil ‎Sherbaji, Kamal Sheikho, Ali al-‎Meqedad, Shaher al-Wara’, ‎Hesham al-Drobi, Modar al-‎Asemi, Mohammad Khalil, Nasr ‎al-Din Fakhr al-Din Ahmi, ‎Nisreen Hussein, Fahed al-‎Yamani, Adel al-Buni, ‎Mohammad Diya’ al-Din ‎Dogmosh, Serin Khouri, Nahed ‎Badawiya, Nart Adbul Kareem, ‎Zukan Nofal, Rayan Suleiman, ‎Herfeen Osi, Abdul Razak ‎Temmo, Mohammad Nassar, ‎Besher Saeed, Sa’ed Sa’eed, ‎Ghaffar Mohammad, Dana al-‎Jewabra, Wafa’ al-Lahham, Seba ‎Hassan and Badr al-Din Shelash ‎were all detained on that day and ‎then released in batches.      ‎

The anti-Assad sit-in in front of ‎the Assad ministry of interior, the anti-Assad al-Hamidiyya ‎protest and the anti-Assad al-‎Hariqa protest were at the time ‎of  the Arab Spring.‎

Syrians were motivated by their ‎Arab brothers in Tunisia and Egypt ‎who ousted their Tunisian president Zein al-Abidin ‎Bin Ali and the Egyptian president Hosi Mubarak.‎

Syrians on Facebook and on ‎other social media pages called ‎for peaceful demonstrations and ‎for civil disobedience in all cities.  ‎Their aim was to topple Assad ‎regime and the ruling family. ‎

Assad terrorists and their allies ‎have turned the peaceful protests into a ‎bloody ‎military crackdow ‎in a brutal war which claimed ‎the lives of hundreds of ‎thousands of Syrians, and also ‎displaced millions of ‎Syrians inside and outside their ‎country, Syrian activists say. ‎
