With the popular uprising in Syria now in its sixth month, and amid continued government repression, there are growing signs that some form of military intervention by Western powers, or their regional allies, is being planned.
This intervention would be launched under the guise of human rights and liberating the population. History shows us that this is not true. Afghanistan in 2001, Iraq in 2003, Bahrain and Libya in 2011 are just some of the recent examples on the effects of imperialist intervention.
The best way to support the liberation of the Syrian masses is by extending the aims of the popular uprising to neighbouring countries. Solidarity actions by workers in these countries that is able to economically hurt the Syrian government will be the most effective form of solidarity to achieve liberation and justice.
The Local Coordinating Committees of Syria have established a media centre to provide information about the Syrian uprising.
