"And I have found both freedom and safety in my madness, the freedom of loneliness and the safety from being understood, for those who understand us enslave something in us. But let me not be too proud of my safety. Even a Thief in a jail is safe from another thief. "

Terrorists destroy statue of Ibrahim Hanano, hero of Syria’s independence- SANA

Damascus, SANA- Terrorists destroyed the statue of Ibrahim Hanan, a hero of Syria’s independence and the struggle against French occupation, in Idleb province.

This terrorist act against the statue of Hanano, who was born in Kafar Takhareem in Idleb province, lends insight into the nature of the terrorists and their relation to the mentality of colonialism and subordination to them.


Hanano, along with other figures such as Sheikh Saleh al-Ali, Sultan Basha al-Atrash, Mohammad al-Ashmar, Hasan al-Kharat, and other resistance figures, is a symbol of Syrian revolution against French occupation in the early twentieth century that are still present in the hearts of Syrians.


This is not the first such crime against the history and civilization of Syrian people, as it is preceded by similar acts of vandalism targeting statues and monuments of poets, writers, and religious shrines in number of provinces.


It should be noted that the terrorists who committed this act are not from ISIS, but are actually among those whom the United States classifies as “moderate opposition.”
