The Persecution of Arab Citizens by Their Regimes

by Dr. Abdul-Sattar Kassem

The Jordanian regime arrests Ali al-Sunaidi; the Egyptian regime continues to detain Dr. Hussein al-Darraj.

The Syrian regime bans Haytham al-Maleh from traveling.

Arab regimes vary, yet their repressive behavior toward Arab citizens is one and the same. Arab regimes continue to persecute free Arabs who care about a better Arab future, at the very time when Israel and the United States continue to occupy Arab and Islamic lands and kill Arab and Muslim fighters.

This is a call to all free Arabs to gather boldly and courageously in every Arab capital to challenge the coming Arab summit and insist on the freedom of the Arab citizen. The rulers have subjugated us enough; as citizens, it is upon us to shake off humiliation and disgrace by offering sacrifices. There is no freedom without sacrifice, and no progress without freedom.

Arab Regimes Measures Against Arab Citizens

A Statement from

The Office of Professor Sattar Kassem

The Jordanian Regime has arrested Ali Asnaidi, The Egyptian insists on detaining the ailing doctor Hussain Ad Darag, The Syrian Bans Haytham Almaleh from traveling abroad

The Arab Regimes are united in face of the Arab citizens. All of these regimes continue to take measures against the Arab citizens every where in Arabia at the time Israel and the United States continue to occupy the Arab and Islamic Land and kill Arabs and Moslems.

This is a call for all free Arabs to prepare for demonstrations in Arab capitals on the day of the expected Arab summit. Free Arabs should start challenging the Arab regimes so as to gain the freedom of all Arabs. No freedom without sacrifice, and no progress without freedom. These Arab regimes will continue to humiliate Arab citizens if they are not bravely challenged.
