I've been asked why I have not posted in a long
time. The answer is that I don't have anything to write. I don't want to write
about politics that are the subject of every discussion in Syria. Not only
because there are countless professional analyses and articles about Syria
everywhere on the web, but because I still feel -several months after we got
into this- that I cannot shape my own opinion on what's going on. My state of
confusion is sill there and I think it will live for months to come. I'd prefer
not to broadcast it through this blog. But then I have the feeling that any
other topic would sound very irrelevant, out of place and out of reality. The
other day I made a tour through Syrian chat rooms. At many, people were not
flirting and talking nonsense, they were discussing the price of the dollar. I
will shut up.
