As Bertolt Brecht said: ” Who fights can lose, who doesn’t fight has already lost.” The liberation of the city of Raqqa has liberated even more energies and dynamism among the revolutionary masses. The city is completely self managed by the people themselves who take care of absolutely all the services for the population of the city. Popular organizations led by the youth have multiplied importantly, reaching more than 42 social movements (officially registered at the end of May since the liberation of the city in March), and as seen above, there has been various campaigns organized by the popular committees such as the “Syrian revolutionary flag represents me” where throughout the city the revolutionary flag was painted to oppose the islamists campaign of imposing the black Islamic flag... The role of the revolutionary is to be on the side and struggle with these popular organizations struggling for freedom and dignity and to radicalize as much as possible the popular movement towards progressive objectives, while fighting against opportunists and reactionary forces opposing popular class interests... We do not deny the difficulties in Syria – and they are many – but knowing what position to take in the ongoing process – not finished, despite what some say – and struggle for the principles propagated by this revolution: freedom and dignity.
