Declaration on the Syrian revolution, leftist forces participating in the World Social Forum meeting in Tunis from 26 to 30 March 2013. Posted on April 10, 2013<http://syriafreedomforever.wordpress.com/2013/04/10/declaration-sur-la-revolution-syrienne-des-forces-de-gauche-participant-au-forum-social-mondial-reunies-a-tunis-du-26-au-30-mars-2013/> [image: 20130408-003118.jpg]<http://syriafreedomforever.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/20130408-003118.jpg> The world was interested in revolutions triggered the Arab region from Tunisia. But the situation became more confused after the revolution has reached Syria. This revealed a strong misunderstanding, based on an ancient doctrine after the Cold War and the division of the world into two "camps". For this reason, the signatories below, affirm First, what is happening in Syria is a revolution in every sense of the term. It is the result of the economic collapse in Syria over the past decade, due to the structural crisis that has impoverished and precarious broad layers of the population, which has concentrated wealth in the hands of a minority mafia family, based the dictatorship. The objective of the revolution is the promotion of freedom and democracy, and it is also changing the economic system in the interests of the popular classes, and build a democratic, secular state makes all equal children of the Syrian people included Kurds and all other components. Secondly, we therefore declare our support for the revolution. We believe that it must be supported for his victory opens prospects major social and political transformations, the way of the pursuit of revolution to other countries of the Maghreb, Saudi Arabia, in a global context crisis of capitalism which foreshadows large movements in many countries around the world. Third, we must reject any logical calling for foreign military intervention, European-American, and also refuse to Russian intervention in Iran and China. We must also reject any religious sense, or wanting to impose a religious revolution, in fact, this is the revolution of the people, and it is, or becomes, an uprising or religious faith. We must denounce the opposition political revolution which reduces its own liberal claims, which do not solve the problems of the people, but only those people in search of power. Fourth, we affirm that the Syrian regime is developed based on neo-liberal mafia, not against imperialism. It is still subject to the Zionist state, conducting wars against the revolution and the Palestinian people, and has long made its secure borders, not seeking to recover the Golan. Fifth, we must condemn the brutal repression against the people of power, which reached crimes against humanity. It must also denounce the corruption of the revolution, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and other Gulf countries, aiming to Saudi Arabia, to derail, and Qatar, the hegemony of the Muslim Brotherhood. Must also report the export of "Jihadists" in Syria, as part of a process against revolutionary. Sixth, political support, media-and by all means, the participant left the Syrian revolution.This support should be a policy to coordinate the activity of all the left forces, acting for participation in revolutions to promote their development and into popular revolutions victorious. Seventh, we must coordinate on the media to break the hegemony of the imperialist media Gulf, which distort the revolution and convey a false image. We will achieve this by exchanging information, and publishing analyzes of the left Syrian revolution. Eighth, we must clarify the nature of the Syrian revolution to every left-wing activist in the world. We must try to change the positions of the left, under the pretext of anti-imperialism, supports power mafia and criminal. Requires that the left takes a truly revolutionary support the Syrian revolution. It must be considered as part of the Arab revolutions, and as the spark that can encourage the class struggle in the world and trigger revolutions in Europe, Asia and probably in the world, due to the crisis of imperialism and accentuating it. Therefore, we must work for a campaign to support the Syrian revolution, we must act to clarify its conditions, difficulties, and its essentially revolutionary against capitalism, for his passing, and against the mafia regimes. We can start by a day of solidarity to support the revolution, organized by the leftist forces in each of our countries, during the first week of May 2013. A preparatory committee will organize a congress in Tunisia to support the Syrian revolution by the international left, probably in June 2013. A permanent monitoring committee, from Congress, will work to continue to support the revolution and the Syrian left, and to deepen the understanding of the global revolution from the left.
