An Uprising Epistle to this Forlorn Arab World!

It is the duty of (the) intellectuals and their obligation to express the word of truth whatever this word may be, and to disclose all sorts of fabrication and falsehood wherever they exist. There exists a multitude of quasi- and pseudo-intellectuals who do not cease to intimately condemn the culture of servility towards the impertinence of tyrants, while at heart they are the most lowly and most servile servitors towards the emptiness of (high-sounding) slogans.

In the wake of the so-called “national (or nationalist) liberation movements” in our gravely wounded countries on all sides, the European colonizers had aspired, with the assistance of these ‘Arab’ authoritarian regimes acting as their watchdogs (and in addition to those quasi- and pseudo-intellectuals acting as their subservient adherents in turn), had aspired to produce generations that were entirely depleted of all meanings of freedom and dignity, generations which did not possess any cultural aspect that would transform them from mere existence into full awareness of such existence. This is precisely what this ‘Syrian’ regime of criminal sectarian Mafiosi has done so thoroughly and so faithfully for more than forty years.

Yet these entirely depleted generations are no more than generations produced to be slaves and serfs to power, generations that do pledge allegiance to this barbarously monstrous Fascist regime, generations that are certainly doomed to degeneration and disintegration and disappearance, especially in the face of those who launched, and will still launch, this popular revolution with determination and resolution after they had launched it with souls and blood.

رَسِيلٌ يَفَاعٌ إِلى هَذَا الوَطَنِ العَرَبِيِّ الجُزَاعِ (2)

غياث المرزوق

مَنْ بِوُسْعِهِمْ أَنْ يَجُرُّوكِ إِلى تَصْدِيقِ السَّفَاسِفِ وَالتُّرَّهَاتِ،
بِوُسْعِهِمْ كذاك أَنْ يَجْتَرُّوكِ إِلى ارْتِكَابِ الفَظَائِعِ وَالشَّنَاعَاتِ!
ڤ-;-ولتير (فرانسوا-ماري أورويه)


رَسِيلٌ يَفَاعٌ إِلى هذا الوَطَنِ العَرَبِيِّ الجُزَاعِ!

إِنَّهَا تِبَاعَةُ المُثَقَّفَاتِ وَالمُثَقَّفِينَ وَإِنَّهُ لِزَامٌ عَلَيْهِنَّ وَعَلَيْهِمْ أَنْ يُفْصِحْنَ وَأَنْ يُفْصِحُوا عَنْ كَلِمَةِ الحَقِّ أَيَّةً كَانَتْ، وَأَنْ يَفْضَحْنَ وَأَنْ يَفْضَحُوا كُلَّ أَنْوَاعِ الاِفْتراءِ وَالتَّخَرُّصِ أَنَّى تَوَاجَدَتَ. وَثَمَّةَ حَشْدٌ مِنَ المُتَثَاقِفِينَ الأَدْعِيَاءِ الذينَ مَا بَرِحُوا، في الحَمِيمِ، يُنَدِّدُونَ بِثَقَافَةِ الخُنُوعِ لِعُتُوِّ الطُّغَاةِ وَهُمْ، في الصَّمِيمِ، أَحْقَرُ الخَانِعِينَ لِخُلُوِّ الشِّعَارَاتِ.

في أَعْقَابِ مَا يُسَمَّى بِـ«حَرَكَاتِ التَّحَرُّرِ الوَطَنِيِّ»، أَوِ بِـ«حَرَكَاتِ التَّحَرُّرِ القَوْمِيِّ»، في بِلادِنَا الرَّثِيمَةِ مِنْ كُلِّ الجِهَاتِ، حَرِصَ القَائِمُونَ بِحَمْلاتِ الاِسْتِعْمَارِ الأَجْنَبِيِّ الأوربيِّ، عَنْ طَرِيقِ كِلابِ حِرَاسَتِهِم مِنْ أَزْلامِ أَنْظِمَةِ الاِسْتِبْدَادِ (فَضْلاً عَنْ أَذْنَابِهَا مِنَ المُتَثَاقِفِينَ الأَدْعِيَاءِ أولئك)، حَرِصُوا على إِنْتَاجِ أَجْيَالٍ خَاوِيَةٍ كُلَّ الخَوَاءِ مِنْ مَعَانِي الحُرِّيَّةِ وَالكَرَامَةِ، أَجْيَالٍ لا تَمْلِكُ مِنَ الثَّقَافَةِ أَيَّ شَيْءٍ يُحَوِّلُهَا مِنْ مُجَرَّدِ الوُجُودِ إلى الوَعْيِ الفِعْلِيِّ بِهَذَا الوُجُودِ. وَهَذَا تَحْدِيدًا مَا قَامَ بِهِ أَزْلامُ النِّظَامِ «السُّورِيِّ» المَافْيَوِيِّ الطَّائِفِيِّ المُجْرِمِ عَلى أَكْمَلِ وَجْهٍ، مُنْذُ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ أَرْبَعِينَ عَامًا.

بَيْدَ أَنَّ هذِهِ الأَجْيَالَ الخَاوِيَةَ عَيْنَهَا لا تَعْدُو أَنْ تَكُونَ أَجْيَالاَ مُنْتَجَةً إِنْتَاجَ العَبِيدِ وَالإِمَاءِ، أَجْيَالاً تَكُنُّ لِهذَا النِّظَامِ الفَاشِيِّ المُتَوَحِّشِ كُلَّ الوَلاءِ، أَجْيَالاً آيِلَةً إلى التَّهَافُتِ وَالاِنْحِلالِ وَالتَّفَسُّخِ وَالاِخْتِفَاءِ، أَمَامَ مَنْ شَنُّوا، وَسَوْفَ يَشُنُّونَ وَيَشُنُّونَ، هذِهِ الثَّوْرَةَ الشَّعْبِيَّةَ بَعْدَ أَنْ شَنُّوهَا بِالأَرْواحِ وَالدِّمَاءِ.
