Syrian groups, predominantly Christian, decided to stage a sit-in against the decisions of the al-Qaeda-affiliated regime in Syria. The sit-in comes after the ban on alcohol sales in the capital, an attempt by the regime to portray Christian areas as centers of drunkenness and prostitution.
The regime designated specific locations for alcohol sales in Christian neighborhoods, a move widely seen as a double-edged sword: first, an insult to Christians, and second, an opening to these areas as destinations for anyone seeking to drink.
The sit-in is a response to the Damascus regime’s attempts to restrict freedoms and interfere in people’s lives and historical traditions.
All eyes are now on the reaction of the Damascus regime and its Takfiri supporters.
