(SALEM, Ore.) - Revolution is contagious, and the next round of demonstrations will begin at noon in Syria; The Syrian Anger Day will see supportive protests in Canada, the USA, London, France, Sweden, Denmark, Qatar and the UAE.

The protests inside Syria will happen in front Of all Syrian Embassies.

The connection point is Facebook, where over 14,000 joined the page today: The Syrian Revolution 2011

"We will demonstrate within and outside the Syrian Arab Republic (encouragement to break the barrier of fear and placebo Ripper in advance and to help us in our plight on 4 February)"

It will get underway after prayers Friday, 4 February and will be the first day of anger for the people - Syrian proud. Comprehensive civil disobedience will take place in all cities.

The creator of the The Syrian Revolution 2011 says they greet the beginning signs of courage people show by simply entering the page. "Some people are afraid of just seeing the name!"

Facebook is giving the movement a cohesive voice and plan of action. The main page states, "Do not be afraid of illusion shattered. We are the voice, all free!".

Organizers explain that the main reason for the existence of demonstrations abroad is to motivate, urge, promote and encourage everyone, "to break the barrier of fear and placebo Ripper in advance and to help us in our plight on February 4."

Syria has been under Baath Party control since 1963. It is another example of a country where the majority of its decision making ability exists with the presidency and a narrow group of military and political strongmen.

Syria's President Bashar al-Assad won a referendum on extending his presidency for a second term. He is the son of Hafez al-Assad, who held office from 1970 until his death in 2000.

Wikipedia explains that: "Syria has played a major regional role, particularly through its central role in the Arab conflict with Israel, which since 1967 has occupied the Golan Heights, and by active involvement in Lebanese and Palestinian affairs."

Statements on the Revolution's Facebook page are statements of conviction... "Be bold; Our goal is to be Syria's number one news on Friday ... now initiated."

One member of this movement said, "That the Intifada will play against the dictator and against injustice and against torture, against the oppression."

Again, the official Page: The Syrian Revolution 2011

One member of the group brought up one of the many reasons people in Syria need relief and change: "Don't forget the 'Hama' Massacres that got more than 40,000 people Killed in 1982... This is unforgettable and unforgivable."

From: Wikipedia:

The Hama massacre (Arabic: مجزرة حماة‎) occurred in February 1982, when the Syrian army bombarded the town of Hama in order to quell a revolt by the Muslim Brotherhood. An estimated 17,000 to 40,000 people were killed, including about 1,000 soldiers, and large parts of the old city were destroyed. The attack has been described as possibly being "the single deadliest act by any Arab government against its own people in the modern Middle East".

Organizers ask everyone to get involved and to please spread the word everywhere...
