"The main purpose of this protest was to upload new videos on YouTube!"

"... On a recent Sunday, 200 protesters marched in front of the Safir Hotel, the city’s most famous, carrying signs calling for the fall of the government and showing solidarity with Hama, a city to the north that was stormed on July 31. The demonstrators walked slowly, led in the chants by a man whose face was concealed with a scarf. As they passed, women on balconies cheered, shouting, “God is great!”... The main purpose of this protest was symbolic, he explained: they wanted to upload new videos on YouTube...."
