A mistake by many gezegde

 A mistake by many rights activists today is that their activities do not correspond with the opinions and values of a majority of our people.

 We are also seeing a pattern of intimidation on the part of the authorities that involves the arrest, usually for a period of up to several days, of human rights defenders and pro-democracy activists. We call on the Syrian authorities to release immediately those held for their involvement in human rights-promoting activities, for their peaceful beliefs and for the peaceful expression of their opinions.
