""I am in solidarity with the Syrian people," said Abdulfattah John Jandali, Jobs' biological father. "I reject the brutality and killing that the Syrian authorities are committing against the unarmed Syrian people. And because silence is participation in this crime, I declare my participation in the Syrian sit-in on YouTube.""
