Today is my father's birthday. If he's still alive in
#Assad
prisons, he turns 61. Living in a limbo of waiting for a decade, I realized I've lived as a shadow of my dad.
Today, I brought him a cake, sang Happy Birthday with a broken heart & cried.
“Happy” birthday, Dad..❤️
My last photo with my dad who completed 2808 days in
#Assad
prisons.
I was v tired after losing a close frnd in
#Assad
's shelling. My dad tried so hard convincing me to go on this trip to Beirut with him.
I'm grateful we spent his last days of freedom together.
I miss u, Dad🌿
Today, my dad completed full 9 years in
#Assad
prisons..
9 YEARS..
No one can imagine the effort I've been making for the past 3287 days to keep sane, manage my anger & pain & to not do any harm to myself or to the world.
I'm tired.. All I want is to see u again, Dad..
#syria
Today marks my dad Ali Mustafa TENTH year in
#Assad
's prisons
#Syria
.
I was told it's selfish to want him alive, enduring the horrors of Assad prisons. How can it be selfish to long 4 my own father's presence & to hope 4 his return?
Ten years, Dad.. you're always in my heart 🤍
I turned 31..
I was 23 when my dad was forcibly disappeared by
#assad
regime 2956 days ago.
I dreamed about him yesterday. He was standing by me with a big smile on his face.. I thought of his smile as a birthday gift ❤
I'm not growing up in ur absence, Dad.. please come back🌿
I spent my morning searching the names of the released detainees in
#syria
, looking 4 my dad who completed 3228 days in
#Assad
’s prisons.
I didn't find him.
Every time I read a similar first name my heart grew bigger. Every time I read a different last name my chest tightened..
This
#Syria
|n man lived as a refugee in
#Germany
& couldn’t meet his family for 7 years.
10 days ago, he could finally travel to
#Turkey
to see them.
He & his entire family died together in the
#earthquakeinturkey
..
My hands & heart tremble as I write this..
Today, my dad "Ali Mustafa" completed 3000 days of enforced disappearance in
#Assad
’s prisons.
3000 days: 8 years, 2 months,16 days knowing NOTHING about his fate & whereabouts.
I live only to see your face one more time, Dad🍀
#Syria
I graduated.
It's unjust that this is the only dedication I could write to my dad.
I share here the most painful and personal feeling I have. It's my only means to make sure that my dad, among hundreds of thousands of detainees, is not forgotten.
2483 days in
#assad
prisons
A year ago, I dedicated my thesis to my dad who completed now 2849 days in
#Assad
's prisons.
My dad doesn't know I went back to school & won't have a chance to be proud of me.
Great pain can't be defeated but it be reshaped. This is the core of what I'm trying to do.
#Syria
I’ve been searching for hours for any info about the impact that of the
#earthquake
on detention centres in
#Syria
but found nothing!
The
#Assad
regime won’t allow such info to spread but I can’t help but thinking abt detainees including my own father!
What an unending pain!
On this day 2012, Journalist
#MarieColvin
and photographer
#R

#Assad
regime on Baba Amr neighborhood in Homs.
Among others, Colvin was reporting on the regime's crimes and the suffering of civilians.
I'm thinking of her & her family today..
Today my dad Ali Mustafa completed 2910 days in
#Assad
's prisons
#Syria
. My one and only wish in this life is to see you again.
I’m not 30 now, but by the end of every single day, I’m six years old. A child who just wants her dad back.
Happy
#FatherDay
, Dad.. please come back
I was recently granted asylum in
#Germany
. I applied 4 visa to
#Canada
to see my mom & sisters after 3 years of separation.
Canadian authorities refused my visa fearing I will stay there!
As if being deprived of my dad for 3143 days in Assad’s prisons isn't enough..
Sad & angry
On this day, 9 years ago, my dad was arrested for the 2nd time in
#assad
prisons in
#Syria
.
Now, he completes 2615 days. We know nothing about him.
All I do is trying to understand and tell the world what it means to lose a loved one in
#detention
.
I won't forget or forgive
It's the 19th
#Eid
without my dad "Ali Mustafa" who completed 3226 days in
#assad
prisons
#Syria
.
We are left with memories, old photos & a 9 year long question:Is he still alive?
I can't move on, forget or accept losing my dad 4 no reason! I still want him back!
#freedetainees
2305 days ago, my dad was forcibly disappeared by the Syrian regime.
It's tearing my heart not being able to see him, listen to his voice, or at least know whether he's alive.
It's the suffering of hundreds of thousands of detainees and disappeared along with their families.
#EvinPrison
in
#Tehran
is on fire since yesterday. Number of prisoners were killed, injured & beaten.
100s of 1000s of

Freedom for all detainees and political prisoners from

to Syria!

Today, 11 years ago, I stayed up all night with my dad watching the "revolution" on TV. We believed the dream had become closer than ever.
On the 11th anniversary of the
#25January
Revolution in
#Egypt
, my dad complets 3129 days in
#Assad
prisons
#Syria
.
One fight..One freedom!
Ammar Haidar was separated from his daughter & wife for 12 years.
He was detained by
#assad
regime multiple times. Therefore, his family had to flee
#Syria
to Jordan.
Haidar fled later to Turkey & spent years trying to reunite with his family till today!
So much Love & hope 🌿
My grandmother has died today in
#Syria
, a year after her husband passed away. She died after waiting for 2813 days for her son, my dad, who's been forcibly disappeared by
#assad
regime.
Maybe Assad didn't get to kill us inside Syria but he's doing so in millions of ways.
Turkish authorities found 12 migrants who froze to death near Greece. Turkey blames Greece. Greece blames the EU. The EU blames Belarus.
The world blames refugees for becoming refugees while ignoring dictatorships, occupations & the actual reasons which force people to flee!
11 years ago,
#theSyrianRevolution
began.. not the conflict, the war or the civil war.
#Assad
regime confronted our calls 4 freedom with every weapon humas invented. It killed, displaced & detained us to silence our voices & demands.
This is not the end.. The fight continues!
Today my dad Ali Mustafa completes 2700 days in
#assad
prisons.
For 7 years, 4 months, 20 days, I've been trying to introduce my dad to the world although any introduction of him reduces his significance.
I'm not trying to keep his memory but rather his existence.
#freedetainees
Normalization feels like the end of everything that began 12 ago: the hopes, the dreams & the sacrifices.
For 3612 nights, I've prayed for my dad's survival in
#assad
prisons.
135,000 lives are caught between life & death while the world embraces Assad.
Normalization s a Crime!
When
#25JanuaryRevolution
began my dad & I slept in shifts to watch
#Tahrir
Square & to assure we witness the moment Mubarak steps down. We sang, laughed & cried together with protesters.
That's how my dad raised me & why he's been disappeared for 2766 days in
#assad
prisons..
The poster says: "Good news - You can now return to sunny Syria - Your country needs you".
These were put in
#Copenhagen
today by
#Danish
extreme right activists.
Don't we all know by now that Syrians will NOT return home but to
#Assad
's torture state!
STOP IT!
#syrianotsafe
I turned 30 a few days ago. When my dad got forcibly disappeared by
#assad
regime, I was 23.
2595 days (7 years, 1 month, and 7 days) have passed...

After 8 years, 11 months & 6 days, I still wake up every morning & go to bed every night with a huge pain, uncertainty & disappointment.
Heartbroken but still waiting 4 you, Dad🍀
My dad was 20 when he left
#Syria
to Lebanon to fight alongside his Palestinian comrades against

in 1982.
Today, he completed 2868 days in Assad’s prisons. I know how much he would've wanted to protest to

2464 days for my dad in
#Assad
prisons. Almost 7 years in fear, sadness, anger, and hope. I've always tried to avoid thinking: is he alive? Is he fine? Is he hungry? Will I ever see him again? With the
#Covid_19
disaster now, it's more difficult than ever to resist the pain.
Thanks for everyone reaching out to me!
This is just to let you know that I’m fine.
I was briefly arrested with a friend by the German police in Berlin but we were released later.

This is a portrait of a hurt and scattered family.
This is my father's family.
Today, my father completes 2373 days in Assad's prisons. It has been 6 years, 5 months, 29 days since we last heard anything from him.
I still believe we deserve less pain.

It's very difficult to explain how it felt to carry portraits of 61

among which is my own dad all the way to
#alkhatibtrial
in
#Koblenz
.
I received tens of messages from families of
#detainees
, asking if I can hold thier loved ones' photos.
This is
#Assad
's Syria..
Grateful to hear about the establishment of the Independent Institution on Missing Persons in

by the UN but it's disheartening that it took 12 years to happen.
In just two days, my father will mark a decade in

10 LONG YEARS!

On
#WorldMentalHealthDay
, my dad completed 3023 days in
#Assad
’s prisons. For 8 years, I've been struggling mentally & physically. I sought therapy, was on anti-depressant 4 years but I'm sure any chance of healing is necessarily connected to knowing the truth of my dad's fate.
I talk about my dad all day, every day, but haven’t heard his voice for 3122 days. He’s the first & last thing I think about daily. It’s as if he’s everywhere and nowhere at the same time.
People ask: why don't you "let go" or "move on"? Bc my dad is irreplaceable.
#assad
#syria
Has my campaigning led to the release of my dad? No. Has it led to the release of any other disappeared? No. But if I don’t scream as loudly as I can about what has happened will anything ever change? We will just be forgotten. I won’t let that happen.
It's the 21

Today is my father’s 62 birthday but he remains trapped in

How to explain this pain to those untouched by it? Every day is agony, questioning if he's still alive.
Heartbroken but hoping this year brings you freedom..
“Happy” birthday, Dad.. ❤️
Today, my dad should've turned 59. 8 years of his life have passed in

I'm heartbroken but I believe you're still fighting wherever you are.
I miss you so much, Dad..
I made this video 4 you.. Happy birthday ❤
I've been feeling exhausted physically & emotionally after we lost some of my dad's friends who I knew well.
It's like I'm with 2 hearts: Mine & that of my dad. I'm feeling my sadness & his, I cry my tears & his.

Assad’s Syria is a torture state enabled by some members of this assembly, but it will become my home again. As Syrians we have been through horrific things, but we do not give up fighting for our freedom.
Who am I to say there is no hope? Who are you to say that?
At the
#UNGA
Since my dad was forcibly disappeared by
#assad
regime, 2636 days ago, I dream about him almost every day. He rarely talks to me. He mostly stands away, looks at me, and smiles.
I remember so that I can walk, believe, and keep going in this day and every day.

In my nightmare, I was arrested and tortured brutally.The first thing I saw when I woke up was my dad's photo. 2382 days in Assad's prisons, I don't know how much he suffered and felt the despair I felt in my dream. I hope justice will be achieved one day.

Good morning, Dad..
It's raining this morning in Berlin. 2921 days have passed & you're away from us. My heart is full of love & pain.

It was enough to keep awake all night, staring at my screen, crying & forcing myself to watch a video of killing detainees while my own dad completes 3222 days in

How can the world still breathe?
How lucky are those who don't wake up every morning & go to sleep every night asking themselves if thier loved ones are still alive, if they're hungry, cold, sick, sad ... if they remember & miss them..

I want to live this absurd life with my dad.. I deserve a chance to tell what a great father he is.
I just want him back..
3312 days of enforced disappearance for my dad in

Why? For what crime? Freedom!?
A year full of lonely walks. I walked & wondered abt the feeling of those whose hearts don't break every time they hear the word "Dad", every time they see fathers & daughters, every night they sleep not repeating:"I hope my dad is still alive".

Every couple of days, I bring my dad new flowers, I wipe his picture & tell him about my day.

My dad was 51 when he was forcibly disappeared by

I wish I could hug u tight tonight but I can only hug ur photo, Dad. My heart is full of love & gratitude.
