Editorial: It is time for Assad to go - Arab News
Syria's junta hasn't merely lost all moral right to govern the country — if it ever had one — it must now face international justice for its crimes against humanity. Defying repeated appeals by the Arab and Muslim countries and rest of the world, the full might of the Syrian security forces has been used against the very people they are supposed to protect. This will not go on forever though. Syria's moment of reckoning has nearly arrived and justice will catch up with all those soon who thought they could get away with murder. But then this is what many a mighty ruler in the neighborhood thought and look where they are today.
Assad and others like him fail to learn from the recent ground shifting events in Tunisia, Egypt and Libya. In the same way Syria is poised on the cusp of change, all thanks to epic sacrifices and perseverance of its courageous people.
