Kassioun Editorial 1279: “I Am the People; I Am Moving Forward and I Know My Way!”
This new wave of popular movement has a number of qualitative characteristics, the most important of which are:

Kassioun Editorial 1278: The Priority of the Economy: Tourist Grandeur or Combatting Poverty?
An economy that does not serve the people — the general public, not just the privileged — is not a national economy. Rather, it is a threat to the country’s national security, unity, and civil peace. Therefore, any discussion about the economy, investment, and projects must begin with a clear answer to a clear question:

The slogan was even described as “the ugliest slogan”, by individuals who never left their platforms for years, remaining honored and protected, and unharmed by the collapsed former authority. Today, they are working to blow the country…

Kassioun Editorial 1274: The Success of the April 17th Protest is a Turning Point!
This is a milestone upon which more can be built, and it will provide a positive momentum for the struggles of Syrians, which are increasingly expressing themselves—primarily through their socioeconomic demands that affect the lives of 95% of Syrians: the impoverished and dispossessed who live below the poverty line.
