Assad is not an animal Mr. president

He is a monster Mr. president.  Animals might kill to eat , animals might kill to defend their existence , animals might kill to defend their territories, did you see an animal kill just to satisfy his instincts ? did you see an animal kill a member of his own community just to keep itself in charge ?
  You heard about the chemical attack in Khan Shaykhun, just to let you know ,it is not the last one. After 12 hours of the American strike on Shairat warplane base there was another usage of chlorine in one of the neighborhoods in Damascus. You might be heard about Ghouta massacre in 2013 , you might be received some information and reports that  OPCW received information about  over 300 attacks by chemical weapons , my organization verified over 180 of them.
You might be heard of the Caesar photos of over 11k Syrians tortured to death in the prisons of the " animal ", you might be heard that over 1 million Syrians are living besieged.
Did you hear about Madya ? let me tell about Madaya .
It is a small town 25 miles to the west of Damascus . on the bottom of one of the mountains 40k people live in the town living on their agriculture and some other income from the thousands of tourists who come to enjoy the lovely whether in the town every year.
The town is too close to the boarder of Lebanon where on the other side of the boarder Biqaa valley is controlled by hozballah , a terrorist group supported by Iran and the animal.
The "animal" sold the city to Iran and hozballah , Hozballh fighters seized the area and tightened the siege around the city since 2 years.
At least 85 people died from the siege within 6 months of besiegement. 64 of them died from malnutrition and others died awaiting their medicines.
Let me tell about a dentistry student there called Mohammad Darwish.
Mohamad treated thousands of patients and made dozens of surgeries, taking the instructions from some physicians who offered help through skype , most of those doctors are Syrian American citizens , knew about Darwish and tried to help him. 2 of those doctors were stuck in another area in Syria, and they were giving instruction to Darwish from their operation room in Idlep or Aleppo.
He is the only doctor in the city, all others left before the siege was tightened by hozballah, he decided to stay and help his people.
I am a dentist too, I was not brave enough to stay in my hometown Douma and left in 2014 when the animal tightened the siege against my city, I smuggled through mines and snipers and walked for 20 miles before arriving to a place where a car can pick me up away from the snipers eyes to a road monitored by helicopters. We were bombed twice by helicopters and fortunately the bomb missed us. Darwish decided to stay instead of taking the same risk, and he preferred to take the risk of dying from starvation, and the honor to serve his people.
We were following up on daily basis with him for any consultation he might need, he was sometimes shy to ask, and we were always shy that we are safe and he is saving lives there.
On the morning when the middle east waked up to hear that the president of the most powerful state on the planet said that Assad is an animal , Darwish and some other 3000 people were evacuated out of the town of Madaya , and hozballah fighters seized the city completely . Ethnic cleansing is the strategy of the "animal" as he couldn’t close the mouths seeking dignity and freedom. Over 500k Syrians were forced to leave their home towns within the last year after months or years of starving them, depriving them from their basic needs like health services including the basics such as vaccinations and baby milk, till they surrender.
Darwish called the morning of the evacuation and said to me: Pray for us , you who stood with us when everyone left us  .

Over 780 health workers were killed in Syria during last 6 years, no one care . I completely understand that no one can bring those 780 to life, but we can release those in the "animal " prisons, we can protect those who are still in their hospitals challenging death, we can bring Darwish back to Madaya after making him has the graduation and the education that he deserve . All 
of this won't happen as long the 'animal' is free .
