The Boy Who Spat on the President’s Face
September 16, 2011 · Mustapha Hamoui
Ziad Majed, describing a moment of Syrian dignity (shown in this YouTube Video):
Just like that, in a heart-stopping moment, this boy imparted as if he were imparting his soul, his profound disdain for torture in its blunt stupidity, for a president, for a history and for framed portraits.
Thus, a video of a minute and a few seconds epitomizes how a 41-year old regime implodes from the depth of oppression… through a spit.
If you haven’t seen the video, you should.
