Press Release:
SAC Urges the Arab League to Take a Strong Stance, Stop Watching
the Syrian
Regime's Crime
(Chicago, IL, 1/9/12) - The Syrian American Council (SAC) urges
the Arab League
to stop providing the Syrian regime more time to continue its
crimes against the
Syrian people. The Syrian regime continues killing peaceful
demonstrators andcivilians instead of complying with the Arab
League demands.
The Arab League monitors appear incapable of stopping the Syrian
regime's brutal
crackdown or reporting accurate events from Syria. The lack of
action by the Arab
League has created the feeling that it is a partner of the
Syrian regime in its crimes
against the Syrian people.

monitors have failed to stop the killing in Syria. The regime
hasn't released the
thousands of protesters incarcerated as it had agreed; it hasn't
withdrawn its army
from the cities and continues to prevent foreign journalists to
enter the country."We do not believe that the Arab League observers
are capable of putting an end to
the regime's violent crackdown against peaceful demonstrators.
The events during
the past two weeks and history have shown that criminals and
brutal dictators will
not stop their crimes unless a credible power intervenes. The
Arab League should
have the courage to admit its failure in this mission instead of
continuing to watch
Assad's slaughtering of the Syrian people," said SAC President
Talal Sunbulli.SAC urges the Arab League to refer the Syria file to
the UN Security Council to
implement measures, including the establishment of safety zones
and humanitarian
corridors, to stop the Syrian regime's crimes and to protect
civilians demanding
freedom, democracy and dignity.
SAC was founded in 2005 to mobilize Syrian Americans to
strengthen civil society
in Syria, to promote friendly relations between the Syrian and
American peoples, toengage civic and governmental organizations to
advance civil liberties, human
dignity and democracy in Syria. The organization has represented
Syrian
Americans to the U.S. State Department, Congress, and in
international meetings
and councils.
