We, the American university of Iraq, Sulaimani students, are here to support the western Kurdistan and Syrian revolution. We gather together here to show our support for the Syrian revolution.

It has been days and we are following the great revolution by the honorable people of Syria for freedom and justice.

Today, we gather to share our wishes with the brave men, women, and youths of Syria who are facing bullets with their bare chests defending their liberty and dignity.  

We are here to share our condolence with the our brothers and sisters of Syria for the death of thousands of honorable freedom fighters.

We, AUIS students, would like to share our hopes with the freedom fighters of Syria that they should have delight and faith that tyranny will seize to exist on Earth.

Moreover, we are here to back our brothers and sisters in the Western Kurdistan. We would like to tell our people in the Kurdistan region of Syria that our heart is always with them, and they are always in our mind and thoughts.
