Erbil - A Syrian source stated on Saturday that the Syrian authorities deployed elements of the army in the neighborhood that are mainly Kurdish in Aleppo city north of Syria after some parties called for organizing similar protests such as these witnessed in a number of Arab countries.
Mahmoud Mouhammed told AKnews that the leader of the Kurdish Democratic Unity Party in Syria (Yekiti) stated that the Syrian authorities have deployed elements of the Syrian troops in some areas after some parties called for protest against the dire situation experienced by the Syrian people of all sects and ethnic nationalism and components.
The Syrian authorities, after the Tunisians were able to take away their President, prevented access to chat on Facebook through mobile phones, and thus tightening the already imposed restrictions on the Internet.
There were no comments from the Syrian authorities towards these strictures, but Syrian officials said before that the social site Facebook is banned to prevent "Israel" from the reaching the Syrian youth.
The Baath Party governs Syria since 1963. It baned since that time all forms of opposition and the imposed emergency law that is still in force today.
The President of Syria Bashar al-Assad came after his father Hafez al-Assad since 11 years after his father ruled the country for three decades.
"The Syrian authorities have deployed elements of the army to prevent any gathering or protest in the country against the chauvinism used against all the components of the Syrian people and on top the Kurds ...The elements of the army were deployed in the Kurdish neighborhoods in Aleppo, especially in the Sheikh Maksoud and Ashrafieh."
The Islamic Independent Democratic Current in Syria is one of the components of the Damascus alliance for National Democratic Change, that called in a statement on Friday to protest in front of the headquarters of the People's Assembly (parliament) in Damascus, as well as organize a similar protest in the city of Aleppo on Saturday.
The Current warned through his statement of "the consequences of continuing repression and the arrest of the free people and the displacement of the honest while the relatives and governers domain the capabilities and resources of the country, and immediate decisions should be taken before the great mass protest that will be in front of the People's Assembly in Damascus."
It also called on some of the human rights figures, journalists and bloggers on the Internet to get out in similar protests.
"The Syrian authorities didn't deploy any troops in Damascus until now because it is under control."
Egypt is witnessing widespread protests since few days ago, and many Algerian areas witnessed riots recently because of unemployment and rising prices, while Jordan witnessed small protests for the same reason, and hundreds of Yemenis demonstrated demanding of change.
Tunisia witnessed at first protests over lack of jobs and poverty, but it escalated to last for more than a month in several cities after Mohammed Bouazizi burned himself last December following the confiscation of the security forces for his vegetables that he was selling, and led to the overthrow of the country's president before he fled to Saudi Arabia
Analysts say that the method adopted by the young Tunisian man by burning himself became a tool for regime change in the Arab street, especially after many people took similar steps to change their situations in several Arab countries including Algeria and Egypt.
Other analysts state that the fall of Bin Ali at the hands of his people is a signal and a message to the rest of the area controlled by regulations similar to his.
