Syria two years on – where is the international working class?

The uprising in Syria is now two years old. The conflict has been brutal and has inflicted massive damage on the civilian population. Working class resistance was active in the early days with many strikes and demonstrations. This has now been weakened by the intensification of the conflict and the involvement of various reactionary and imperialist forces. Nevertheless, workers organisations are still active on many fronts. The missing piece is international action by workers around the world in support of their brothers and sisters.
