Babaamr is facing a genocide right now. I will never forgive you for your silence. You all have just give us your words but we need actions. However our hearts will always be with those who risk their life for our freedom. I know what we need! We need campaigns everywhere inside Syria and outside Syria, and now we need all people in front of all embassies all over the world. In a few hours there will be NO place called BabaAmr and I expect this will be my last message and no one will forgive you who talked but didn’t act.
One of Syrian citizen journalist Rami Al-Sayed’s last messages. The 27-year-old Al-Sayed, who bravely documented what was going on in the wartorn city of Homs, was actively targeted by the regime’s shelling according to activists. He ran a live feed of the bombardment of his city, out of the neighborhood of Bab Amro, and according to activists: “Five days ago, the regime’s army became aware of his live broadcast and his location, and targeted him with artillery shells.” They finally succeeded in silencing him today. He leaves behind a one-and-a-half year old daughter named Maryam. (via thepoliticalnotebook)

Insane. Why were we so willing to help in Libya but can’t be bothered to stop the Syrian atrocity? And why do I think reblogging posts is actually going to help?
