The Communist Action Party ( Arabic حزب العمل الشيوعي, DMG Ḥizb al-ʿAmal aš-Šuyūʿī ) is a left-wing political party in Syria that was founded in 1976 under the name League for Communist Action as a split from the Syrian Communist Party . The party, which was illegal from the start , was renamed the Communist Labor Party on August 6, 1981 . It is mainly students and intellectuals who organize themselves, many of its members are Alawites .
According to human rights organizations, she was exclusively non-violent; According to the blog "AngryArab News Service", she initially fought against the government with weapons. Its members were intimidated from the start and many were arrested. The persecution was particularly severe because there were many Alawis among them. In 1992 it was crushed by a large-scale arrest, and many of its members were sentenced to long terms in prison by the Syrian Supreme State Security Court. Its general secretary, Fateh Jamous, was imprisoned for almost 20 years, Abdelasis al-Chair for 14 years and Monder Chaddam for 13 years.
In 2003 it was re-established. In 2006 she joined the “National Democratic Union” and in 2007 the “Marxist Left Collection” alliance. Several of its members, including Monder Chaddam and Abdelasis al-Chair, helped found the National Coordinating Committee for Democratic Change (NCB) .
In the Syrian civil war she turned against the arming of the opposition and foreign military interventions, she pleaded for a dialogue with the Assad government and supported the peace plan of the UN mediator Kofi Annan . Your political goals for Syria are free elections, separation of powers, a secular, democratic government, freedom of speech and assembly and equal rights for all citizens.
Abdelasis al-Chair was arrested at a roadblock in Damascus on September 21, 2012 after returning to Syria from negotiations with the Chinese leadership . The coordinating committee blames the government for this.
