# WithSyria, by Bill Hicks on Jun 2, 2015 20:38:19 GMT 1, Dr Majed has lived and treated patients under starvation siege in the suburbs of Damascus. For years, images emerged quietly of emaciated adults and children succumbing to hunger in the neighbourhoods of Eastern Ghouta. All the while, away from the worldโs spotlight and our news headlines, Dr Majed and his heroic team of medical workers were working frantically to save lives.
There was never much of an international uproar about what was happening in their town, yet their field hospital survived incredible horrors. The doctors took on surgeries theyโd never done before to save their patientsโ lives. Dealing with hunger wasnโt the half of it - Eastern Ghouta faced up to 70 air attacks a day. And with every attack came a story.
Listen to Dr Majed tell one of these stories in this incredibly touching 3 minute video.
What Dr Majed and his teams saw then and still see every day in Syria should be making global headlines. But as the media and ordinary people focus on Isis, these stories get lost. Chances are, most of your friends donโt know what a barrel bomb is.
Watch and share the video to break the silence on barrel bombs in your community of family and friends.
Medical workers like Dr Majed are under incredible strain right now. Witnessing injuries theyโve never seen before, theyโre operating under the light of cell phones in underground hospitals. Theyโre treating people who are starving and theyโre treating victims of chemical attacks. Because of their work, they are also being hunted down and tortured or killed.
Share Dr Majedโs message with everyone you know - especially with doctors, nurses, and health workers.
This is an invitation for them to take action and help protect the medical community.
Thank you.

# WithSyria, by Bill Hicks on Apr 16, 2015 16:20:28 GMT 1, I've found my new happy place. When 17,000 of us Syrian non-violent activists launched our plan for peace a month ago we had no idea what to expect. Last Tuesday thousands of you showed us with messages, photos and videos from almost every country in the world that our hopes for Syria are shared by people across the globe. Today, I look at these messages and feel a renewed sense of optimism that together we can make a difference.
Watch this video of beautiful messages from around the world to Planet Syria
Peace in Syria is going to take two things: stopping the regime's barrel bombs - with a 'no-fly zone' if necessary - and inclusive peace talks. But we Syrians cannot achieve this alone, which is why it is so critical that thousands of you are with us and ready to do what it takes to bring peace to Syria.
We called this campaign Planet Syria because we felt isolated from humanity and ignored by the world. But as human rights and peace activists we knew deep down that there must be people who are willing to act with us to defend our shared humanity.
These beautiful messages are the proof we need that solidarity and hope exists. Our shared task over the weeks and months is to turn this hope into concrete action by pressuring governments around the world to stop the barrel bombs and bring peace to Syria. As a start, we need you to reach out to your friends and the groups that you are a part of to join our network.
Please watch and share this video of all the inspiring messages of solidarity. So many people talk about the symptoms of the violence in Syria or the extremists like Isis that are born from it. But few are actually organising to stop it, which is what makes our collective efforts so critical.
Hearing you loud and clear,
Salma
PS. Below Iโve copied some of the responses to the messages from Planet Syria members across Syria
Noshen: We thought that the world forgot Syria, we were mistaken, a big thank you to whom heard the calls of Syria Planet, and stood in solidarity with us.
Morhaf: I thought that Syria is not known to others, but the solidarity and the participation in the campaign, from all over the world, changed my mind, this campaign delivered the message of the Syrian people and showed part of our suffering and our right to live in peace. A big thank you to the world wide individuals, groups, and organizations that stood with us in Planet Syria campaign.
Samer: Frankly, I didnโt expect our voices to reach different countries all over the world, and that they would join us so passionately in solidarity like they did.
Mohammad: Iโm really happy to know that people hear our Planet Syria, feel for us, and care about everything across Syria, not only where the black flag of ISIS is.
Walaa: I was pleased with the campaignโs echo, I didn't expect it to be so much, and โthank youโ is the least to be said.
Basel: It was so great to know that there are people far away, yet their hearts are with us through our tough ordeal, and with all the killing and bombing we're facing daily and suffering from, so we thank them from the bottom of our hearts.
Lead: a big thank you for all who stood with us, a โthank youโ is the least that could be said to express our gratitude for you, Thank youuuuuuuu !
PPS. If you haven't yet seen the campaign please head over to www.planetsyria.org/en
The Syria Campaign is building an open, global movement working for a peaceful future for Syria. We are people from all over the world who are coming together to tackle what the UN has described as โthe greatest humanitarian tragedy of our time".

# WithSyria, by Bill Hicks on Apr 4, 2015 13:43:25 GMT 1, Hey friends,
Thanks to everyone who emailed about Tuesday April 7 with ideas and questions about how we can send a signal to Planet Syria. What we really want to do is tell these thousands of non-violent Syrian activists that weโve heard their voices and we stand with their efforts to make peace.
So what can we do to make sure Syrian activists know weโre listening? Check out the ideas below -- it doesnโt have to be big, you can hold a sign up and take a picture if you donโt have much time. Letโs just make sure Planet Syria hears from every corner of our world. Post your pictures and video to this Facebook page or send over an email to info@planetsyria.org. Here are some ideas:
Write a message in the sand on a beach - stand next to it
Make a big banner and take a picture outside somewhere iconic - City Hall, a famous monument
Get the chalk out - write on the pavement
If you belong to a faith group, gather this weekend and take a photo
Grafitti (we wonโt tell if you donโt)
Play a song for Syria with your favourite musical instrument
Get the paints out - get your kids involved
Group shot: gather your family, your office colleagues, your football team and take a picture. โPlanet Syria we hear you!โ
Temporary tattoos: Care about it? Write it on your body. Or permanent if you like
Hereโs the event page: www.facebook.com/events/1421058744861781/
If youโre busy on Tuesday, go ahead and do something this weekend and email it over - weโll be glad to put it up on Facebook on Tuesday. In case you missed it, hereโs Salmaโs email below about Planet Syria and why we should all join.
Thank you,

# WithSyria, by Bill Hicks on Mar 17, 2015 20:30:14 GMT 1, Last night the Syrian regime dropped barrel bombs filled with chlorine gas onto civilians in Idlib. Six people were killed -- a grandmother, mother, father and three children. Dozens more were treated for gas inhalation at a nearby field hospital.
Today, the White Helmets are asking the United Nations Security Council to stop these chemical weapons being dropped - with a no-fly zone if necessary. The more of us who join the call, the greater the urgency on leaders to act.
In the town of Sarmeen, the volunteer rescue workers of the White Helmets rushed to the site to save people. A video of the rescue shows them in a tiny field hospital carrying in more and more infants. There arenโt enough beds so they have to lie the children together. Another video shows the rescue workers choking -- themselves suffering from the effects of inhalation.[1]
The attack comes just 11 days after the UN Security Council voted on a resolution saying it would take further measures, including the possibility of military force, if chlorine gas was used again in Syria. Now it has been used. The Syrian regime is testing us -- if the international community doesn't take action, if our leaders break their word, it will be a green light for thousands more to be killed using poison gas.
The attack also comes 390 days after the UN Security Council passed a resolution banning the use of barrel bombs. Despite these threats the Syrian regime is doing nothing to ease its attacks on civilians. On Sunday it launched more than 200 air attacks.
The unarmed and neutral rescue workers of the White Helmets have saved more than 12,000 lives in Syria but there are many more they canโt reach. More children trapped under the rubble. More young people permanently disabled by shrapnel. More parents who never come home. Will you add your name in support of their call? The White Helmets can only ease the suffering, itโs up to us in the international community to end it.

# WithSyria, by Bill Hicks on Mar 15, 2015 18:15:50 GMT 1, Today marks the 4th anniversary of the Syrian revolution. This day in particular always makes me wonder: if there were a magical button that could stop the revolution from ever happening, would I push it? Would other Syrians push it?
Yes, Assad would reign for decades. He would continue to rule Syria with an iron fist. But there would not be millions of refugees, hundreds of thousands of casualties, child soldiers, rape, violence, ISIS... When the cost of freedom in your country is so high, this hypothetical question poses a great dilemma.
My name is Ru'a, I'm a 21-year-old girl from Aleppo and I do not have all the answers.
However, I do know what the revolution means to me as a Syrian, I have witnessed the hope it brought to people's hearts and the creativity it sparked in their minds. Sadly, these memories are slowly vanishing.
For four years, the focus on military and geopolitical aspects have painted a murky picture of the conflict in Syria. Today, people don't know the revolution started with peaceful demonstrations and not guns. To many outside Syria, al-Baghdadi sounds like a familiar name, while Ghiath Matar (a famous peaceful activist tortured to death) does not ring a bell.
Even in my own memory, pictures of grisly decapitations are more vivid than the scenes of peaceful protesters in Hama and Deir ez-Zor, chanting for freedom.
That is what we are trying to change through a new project called Syrian Voices which weโre starting today. There are scores of videos far away from the news headlines that the world doesn't see because of the language barrier. Videos from the core of the Syrian civil movement that could help safeguard a story of perseverance, where millions of men and women were the protagonist. My mission is to try and subtitle these videos, to amplify these voices and make sure they are heard. It is a journey to a time when Syrians were not too war-weary to laugh and create art, even in the face of a tyrant's bullets.
Here is one of these videos - a three minute comedy sketch about a dictator as a football coach. Please watch it and share with your friends:
Hope you enjoy the films,
Ru'a
The Syrian Voices channel is a joint project with SyriaUntold - an independent digital project exploring the storytelling of the Syrian struggle and the diverse forms of resistance. Please subscribe to the Syrian Voices YouTube channel to watch the subtitled films - we aim to release one daily.

# WithSyria, by Bill Hicks on Mar 12, 2015 17:33:27 GMT 1, No one is free until weโre all free.
Iโm not Syrian but I share the Syrian dream for change. Four years ago it didnโt begin with guns and mortars. Four years ago it began with peaceful calls for freedom.
I watched grainy YouTube footage of protests uploaded by citizen journalists with shaking voices. Hundreds of thousands of people were standing in places like Assi Square in Hama chanting for freedom and holding the longest flags youโve ever seen in your life [1]. I saw footage of tanks rolling in to crush the protests and bullets entering protestersโ chests.
I heard the stories of amazing women who would bake sweets to give to army soldiers, coaxing them not to jail their sons and daughters.
I heard the stories of activists who formed underground committees to organise protests every Friday, using pseudonyms on Skype to avoid getting caught by the regime. So many of them were hunted down by the security forces and disappeared or killed. Like Ghiath Matar, or โLittle Ghandiโ who used to hand out roses and bottles of water to armed soldiers who came in to crush the protests. Ghiath was 24 and expecting his first child when he was abducted by the regime. A few days later, his lifeless body was returned to his family, bearing marks of torture [2].
What does it mean for our world when people are silent after thousands of activists like Ghiath meet their end this way? I donโt know, but itโs not a world I want to live in. What happens in Syria is a part of our shared struggle for a better world.
Thatโs why this Sunday Iโm going to Martyrs Square in Beirut to attend a demonstration in solidarity with Syrians on the 4th anniversary of their uprising. Iโve added a list of events below marking this moment around the globe. Please join one this weekend if you can.
We canโt bring back any of the beautiful humans who died for their desire to be free. But we can honour them and make sure their aspirations live on forever. Letโs stand up and be counted this weekend for a peaceful and dignified future for our Syrian sisters and brothers.
No one is free until weโre all free.
P.S. If you've organised an event and it isn't listed, please reply to this email - it will be updated on this page.

No one is free until weโre all free.
No one is free until weโre all free. Iโm not Syrian but I share the Syrian dream for change. Four years ago it didnโt begin with guns and mortars. Four years ago it began with peaceful calls for freedom. I watched grainy YouTube footage of protests uploaded by citizen journalists with shaking voices. Hundreds of thousands of people were standing in places like Assi Square in Hama chanting for freedom and holding the longest flags youโve ever seen in your life [1]. I saw footage of tanks rolling in to crush the protests and bullets entering protestersโ chests. I heard the stories of amazing women who would bake sweets to give to army soldiers, coaxing them not to jail their sons and daughters. I heard the stories of activists who formed underground committees to organise protests every Friday, using pseudonyms on Skype to avoid getting caught by the regime. So many of them were hunted down by the security forces and disappeared or killed. Like Ghiath Matar, or โLittle Ghandiโ who used to hand out roses and bottles of water to armed soldiers who came in to crush the protests. Ghiath was 24 and expecting his first child when he was abducted by the regime. A few days later, his lifeless body was returned to his family, bearing marks of torture [2]. What does it mean for our world when people are silent after thousands of activists like Ghiath meet their end this way? I donโt know, but itโs not a world I want to live in. What happens in Syria is a part of our shared struggle for a better world. Thatโs why this Sunday Iโm going to Martyrs Square in Beirut to attend a demonstration in solidarity with Syrians on the 4th anniversary of their uprising. Iโve added a list of events below marking this moment around the globe. Please join one this weekend if you can. We canโt bring back any of the beautiful humans who died for their desire to be free. But we can honour them and make sure their aspirations live on forever. Letโs stand up and be counted this weekend for a peaceful and dignified future for our Syrian sisters and brothers. No one is free until weโre all free. P.S. If you've organised an event and it isn't listed, please reply to this email - it will be updated on this page.

# WithSyria, by Bill Hicks on Mar 7, 2015 21:19:27 GMT 1, 1,892. Thatโs how many children have been killed by falling barrel bombs since the UN banned them a year ago.
Itโs scandalous that the US is sitting on radar information RIGHT NOW that could be used to warn Syrian neighbourhoods that the bombs are coming.
Please sign the petition to get this early warning to rescue workers. Letโs get to 5,000 signatures today:
act.thesyriacampaign.org/sign/warn_civilians_of_attacks
In solidarity.
