schools, Darwinism is imposed upon the pupils. People are raised in a
way to make them embrace the communist viewpoint. Rather than the
merciful, warm, peaceful and friendly style we can see in the Ottoman
times, which is compatible with the belief of Ahl al-Sunnah, a sort of
aggressive, merciless and loveless communist style prone to bloodshed
is prevalent. (The ones we have been criticizing here are those who
have adopted the bloody policy of communism as a way of life and see

no harm in spreading their ideologies. Our brothers, whose hearts are
full of the beauties brought by the morality of Islam, who are consci-
entious and thus have remained desperate due to the prevailing sys-
tem of persecution, are surely beyond this.)

For instance, the sole reason for the disorder that prevails current-
ly in Syria is the imposition of communism upon pure Muslims there.
Although inner conflicts have been continuously portrayed as conflicts
among some Islamic schools in some certain media outlets, what pre-
vails currently in Syria is essentially a struggle between communists
and Muslims. Since the time of Hafez al-Assad, Syria has been under

Marxist-Stalinist-communist rule. With this aspect, Syria is the one of
the leading representatives of Arab socialism.
As one will remember, during the administration of Hafez al-
Assad, which had been enjoying very warm relations with the former

Soviet Union, the advocacy of all views, other than the communist ide-
ology embraced by the Arab Socialist Ba'ath Party, was banned. All
Islamic movements were restricted, Islamic leaders were arrested and
martyred, and Muslims went through a time of great oppression, vio-
lence and torture. In 1982, Hafez al-Assad and his brother Rifat al-
Assad committed a horrific massacre in the city of Hama, martyring
some forty thousand Muslims. Today, with Syria led by Bashar al-

Assad, the son of Hafez al-Assad, the incessant massacres occurring on
a daily basis simply prove that the socialist-communist ideology
prevalent in the country has not changed one bit. (For further informa-
