Inspiration for the Syrian protest movement is a voice honest and reflective of the revolution: a half-American citizen journalist who, illustrating the plight of his country, risk of death itself.
In a country which prohibits homosexuality, the blog of Amina Abdullah, "A Gay Girl in Damascus," offers what it describes as "thoughts lesbian Syrian output on the life, the universe and so on.". Through the lens of his own life as an openly gay woman in Syria, it gives readers troubling details on the State of the country. (Photos: protests in Syria.)
Abdullah began blogging on February 19 with a post entitled, it is the dawn or twilight? What Arab LGBT people waiting with the current changes? "But this is only his April 29 post,"my father, the hero,"as his blog attracted widespread international attention. In this story, Abdullah tells readers how her father reacted when security services arrived at the House she accusing "conspiring against the State, urging the armed uprising." in collaboration with foreign elements it describes how his father he defended and convinced to leave by telling security officers :
"This is not that you should fear;" it you have to be round praise upon him and people like him. What are they saying Alawi, Sunni, arabi, kurdi, duruzi, christian, everyone is the same and will be equal to the new Syria; They are the ones who, if it is the revolution, will be saving your mother and your sisters. These last battles the Wahhabis are more seriously. You idiots, however, are serving their saying 'each Sunni Salafi is, each protester is Salafi, each of them is an enemy' because when you do that make it so you. "(See a complete coverage of the Middle East in the revolt of the time).
Abdullah, delighted at the outcome, said readers, "my father had just defeated them!" Step with weapons but with words... My father is a hero. I always knew that... but now I know... "It was reported that his father said that would not leave until democracy arrived or was dead, and thus, it is committed to do the same."
But the authorities have been persistent, and last week, in a post entitled "Gone Underground," Abdullah has stated that his "old father" had decided that he needed escape from the House. "They are income for you." This time, there is nothing I can do. Go somewhere and tell me where you are. Be safe. I love you, "it's him." (See how the Syrian protesters swear to break the siege on Dara' has).
Abdullah followed his advice and moved his life and his personal effects. "I have no desire to become a martyr, even in my own case so I will do what I can remain free," she wrote, while continuing to hope and predict that the Syria would soon be a free nation.
Reflected in its positions, the future of Abdullah as well as his country is uncertain. But it remains impressive informed despite the turmoil. "I want to live in a free country and I do not want to go," it wrote yesterday.
