A Letter to an American Citizen
By Hasan M. Yousef
Translated by Shawki Dakkak

(Syria) Techreen Newspaper, No. 9164, 3 February 2005

Dear Sir,
During the course of the last several years, I considered addressing you dozens of times. In fact, I started to write you two years ago, when President George [W.] Bush declared that his Iraqi invasion "will serve as a democratic example and an inspiration to other states in the area." But I stopped writing after a few lines.
I didn’t want to seem as if an imitator of your fellow citizen, the American writer Thomas Friedman, who used to address his letters in every direction. I disdain intelligence when used as a means to justify injustice. At the time, Mr. Friedman even dared to address me, as an Arabic citizen, in a letter that asked in bold irony, "All other people tend to produce computer chips, while you Arabs still produce potato slices—why?"
I explained in one of my articles then that “the reason” is his own “government, which forbids all high-tech equipment to be sold to the Arab world—in particular, Syria.”
Several times during the last two years, I thought about writing you, especially when your army crossed the ocean and came, in the name of democracy and human rights, to occupy Iraq and to park on the eastern border of my country. [Editor’s note: This is purportedly being done to guard the Iraqi-Syrian border, yet the U.S. does nothing at all to guard its own.] I considered changing my thoughts into deeds, but I hesitated because I believed it would be futile.
I’ve given up in the hesitation of writing my letter, in spite of my growing belief of its uselessness, after hearing the first speech of your President at the beginning of his second term: “The American aim is to spread liberty and to end tyranny in the world.”
I am not absolutely certain that you would get my message if I sent in an envelope into the mail. So I decided to send it by the press, hoping for it to be read by somebody. I have to ask: “How do you view this speech of your President a few weeks ago?”
As for me, I plainly admit that his speech made me tremble in fear, despite my natural courage that enables me to cross deserts and to sleep alone in the dangerous forests. After your President’s speech, I dreamily imagined the Damascene skies filled with giant American bombers, putting Damascus, the oldest capital in human history, into flames.
Oh, dear brother, your President’s speech made me tremble in horror, because we both know that your country has nothing free of charge, including the words in your speeches. The American press described your President’s speech as “a long, complicated process, which was immediately started after the election. Many writers, historians, thinkers, and officials had a part in polishing this speech—among them was Nathan Sharansky, the Israeli minister.” Of course, none of them was Arabic or Muslim.
Several days ago, Mr. Michael Gerson, who put the last touches in the speech, said, “This speech was carefully studied to deal with a struggle that will last for generations, and not expected to be settled in a year or two.” Mr. Gerson described your President’s aims as “ideal in depth,” while his methods were “realistic in depth.”
In fact, even some conservative Republicans criticized President Bush’s speech. A speechwriter for Presidents Nixon and Reagan remarked that the speech “focused on the American [neo-conservative] right to interfere into the internal affairs of every state in the world. This, simply, is a formula for an endless war, and wars destroy the states of republics in the world.” A former Bush Sr. speechwriter remarked that Jr.’s speech is a “dream [that should] cause [us] to worry.” Ironically, she said, “This isn’t heaven; it is earth.” Even some American citizens considered the speech to be “confirming American hostility” and another “step in the direction towards using brutal force.” Some made a reference to “American arrogance.”
These words don’t increase my feeling of horror. I feel real fear when I hear your President and his officials speak about “human rights,” as if they recently discovered it in the kitchen at the White House.
To identify human rights by words is one thing, but to act proving that you respect these human rights is another thing altogether.
The oldest human rights organization was born in Arab land more than 1500 years ago. Our traditional inherited documents speak about a sworn alliance named “Helf Al-Foodol” that was established by various Arab chieftains. They agreed to stand in one line against injustice, oppression, and tyranny.
Along the course of centuries, different religions lived side-by-side in our land—until the West came for its oil, trying to separate us into races and groups. These Westerners killed Jews, and then decided to compensate them by giving these Jews “our land.” Isn’t this ridiculous?
Your governors try hard to convince you that we hate you, and envy your luxurious life. But we don’t. We like your culture. We admire your moral values. Yet we hate your method of spreading horror all over the world.
The Syrian poet Millager wrote a poem in the third century BC, which says,
“I was born in Attica,
And grew young in Tyre.
Is not it strange to become a Syrian?
O’ Stranger, we live in one town called the world.

Editor’s note: Mr. Yousef offers an interesting perspective, coming from Syria, giving us a glimpse of how others in Syria view us as Americans.
Currently, there has been some animosity between the U.S. and Syria, because people in the Bush administration are unjustly blaming Syria for the murder of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri.
It is true that Mr. Hariri did not like Syrian troops in Lebanon, which have been deterring Israel from advancing on Lebanese grounds and also helping keep internal rebellion down. And, perhaps, it is also true that there was some resentment from Syria for Mr. Hariri’s comments. However, there has been absolutely no evidence to suggest that Syria actually played a part in this, and it would be odd for Syria to strike at him when he was voted down by the Lebanese people and no longer had his former influence.
It seems more likely that Israel’s Mossad, operating under their motto of “By Way of Deception,” assassinated Rafik Hariri in an effort to cause division between Syria and Lebanon and further alienate Syria from other nations. In fact, car-bombing and assassinations have long been the hallmark of a Mossad operation, yet no such instances can be attributed to Syria’s government of which I’m aware. This, then, would be similar to other actions that Israel has caused, such as when Israel bombed the USS Liberty, bombed the King David Hotel, murdered Lord Moyne and Count Folke Bernadotte, and bombed the U.S. Library of Information. Likewise, Israel pitted the Christian minority in Lebanon against the Moslems back in the 1980s.
By engaging in the assassination of Prime Minister Rafik Hariri now, Israel is thus able to generate international animosity towards Syria, striving to get the U.S. to fight another of its battles, and able to more easily advance on Lebanese grounds once Syrian troops are removed.
