The repercussions of what's happening in Syria, and especially the catastrophic reaction of much of the Global 'Left', will be felt for decades to come.For transparency's sake, let me introduce myself before I continue. I am a writer, originally from Beirut and of part Palestinian origins, currently an MA student at SOAS, University of London and about to start my PhD. I am the regional editor at Global Voices for the MENA region and I usually write on Israel-Palestine, Syria and Lebanon for a number of publications. I'm also involved with a number of Syria solidarity groups, especially those working with refugees. I do not claim expertise, but I have been following Syria since 2011 with a near-daily obsession. I know what it means to be lost when it comes to Syria and I know for a fact that many of us who call ourselves leftwing anti-imperialists have allowed our ideological priorities to betray the needs of the people on the ground. I've seen otherwise-sober leftists lose the plot and even make lazy excuses for the genocidal fascist dictatorship that is the Assad regime when it comes to Syria. I've seen otherwise-sober leftists adopt the xenophobic, Islamophobic, neo-colonial and nativist rhetoric usually associated with the Far Right and I am convinced that we, the 'Left', are to blame for galvanizing the rise of rightwing nativism in the West. And I've seen otherwise-sober self-proclaimed anti-Zionists adopt the most right-wing version of the Zionist narrative on Palestinians when it comes to Syrians fighting the regime. To put it bluntly: the Left has tolerated and even supported Fascism. For those of you aware of the history of political thought, you will understand how dangerous this is. And although I have not had the pleasure of officially meeting them, I am in contact with both Leila and Robin.To get back to the book. Leila and Robin have written one of the books of the Syrian revolution. This is not a small statement. In the book, they expertly narrate the Syrian revolution from Day 1. They provide sound historical and political analysis and they back their arguments with the facts on the ground. They quote activists, some of whom have since been killed, kidnapped or imprisoned, at length. In addition to the valuable content provided, both Leila and Robin happen to be great writers.This is a must read.(I'll try and prepare a longer and more detailed review soon) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ No moderate opposition? *by M***C on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 November 2016* Powerfully written and painstaking in detail, perhaps its most important contribution is collating numerous testimonies from that "moderate opposition" the regime denies exists. Countless secular, leftist, liberal, and anti-sectarian voices, which have been largely drowned out in the news, are heard clearly here. Indeed, the authors show how the militarisation and sectarianisation of the conflict emerged in part because of the relentless persecution of these actors early in the uprising, even as sectarian militants were being released as "concessions".An important book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five Stars *by L***N on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 March 2016* A great read and very informative --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/59009095-burning-country-syrians-in-revolution-and-war](https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/59009095-burning-country-syrians-in-revolution-and-war) --- *Product available on Desertcart Thailand* *Store origin: TH* *Last updated: 2026-05-31*
