People's Arab Socialist State (World of Sultans)

The People's Arab Socialist State (Arabic: الدولة العربي الاشتراكي الشعب) or the PASS in short or the Al-Maʿarri Front (Arabic: أبو العلاء المعريجبهة Jabhat Al-Maʿarri), is a paramilitary organization found in 2010 that is aimed at fighting the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, as well as the North Syrian Coalition. It is also a political organization. It is based on Syria, Lebanon and Iraq and has branches operating in those nations. It has a high number of atheists and non-religious believers, in addition to its numbers of Druze, Sunnis, Shiites and Christians.

The PASS is known to be supported by Russia. Its leader, Hamza Ismail is an atheist and described himself as a "pure kuffar". He named it the Al-Ma'arri Army after the historical Arabian atheist and retionalist poet Abul ʿAla Al-Maʿarri who attacked all religion. The PASS is also anti-Zionist.

The goal of the PASS is to established a Marxist-Leninist government in Syria, and to topple all theocratic influence. King Abdullah and Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal of Saudi Arabia, the United States and other western powers condemned the group as being a terrorist group and as equal of a threat as the Islamic State. However, Russia, China, North Korea and Iran recognize it as a freedom-fighting militant group and vigilante organization.

The PASS currently also supports the respective armed forces of its host countries, with their groups being patriotic to their host nation. Vladimir Putin praised the PASS as "patriotic militants" while Barack Obama views them as terrorists threatening the peace in the Arab World.

Background
The beginning and history of PASS started in the summer of 2010, in the precursors to the Arab Spring. Hamza Ismail, a former Sunni Muslim and a lawyer from Syria declared no faith, proclaiming "There is no God, and if there was, Muhammad was not his messanger" the opposite of the Islamic shahadah. As being targetted by Islamic extremists and overall angry Muslims, he had to flee to Lebanon.

In Lebanon and Egypt, Ismail inteviewed and gathered a network of atheists and non-religious Arabs, founding the Kafir Network - an underground organization of atheists. The network also started to operate in Egypt and Israel, gaining support from Jewish atheists in Israel the latter used underground tunnels between Gaza and Egypt.

Ismail returned to Syria in September 4, 2010, armed with an AK-74u, killing ten Sunni Muslims. He was later tried by the Syrian government, and he was released under self-defense reasons and given his AK-74u back. Muslim activists rooted against this decision, trying to prove that he killed innocent Muslims.

Crypto-Atheists from Egypt started to join the network, in which a couple of incidences occured with the death of Muslim Brotherhood members by the use of gunfire. By approximately December 11, 2010 - the organization had about 984,000 followers and supporters total from Syria, Egypt, Lebanon and Iraq.

Barack Obama announced it as the "formation of another terrorist threat that needed to be expunged". Vladimir Putin announced it as "the formation of a vigilante organization that fights the savage Muslim extremists".

Arab Spring
During the 2011 Arab Spring, the PASS played a crucial role in fighting the Egyptian Revolution against President Hosni Mubarak. The leader of the Egyptian section, a former Muslim by the name of Mahmoud al-Jalil led a small force of 3,000 armed with AK-74u submachine guns to open fire at violent protestors. However, they were outnumbered and eventually overwhelmed and had to flee the scene. Mahmoud al-Jalil went to Damascus to discuss with Hamza Ismail that the political party needed to be organized and divided into national branches.

This spawned the People's Arab Socialist State of Egypt (PASSE), Soon afterwards, Ismail called leaders from Lebanon, Iraq and his own Syrian homeland and spawned the leader Peoples Arab Socialist State of Syria (PASSS), People's Arab Socialist State of Iraq (PASSI) and the People's Arab Socialist State of Lebanon (PASSL).

The PASS operating in these Arab nations worked as vigilantes against the Arab protesters gaining members - even from religions. In Lebanon, they were considered a vigilante organization and started to gain Maronite Catholics, Greek Orthodox and even some Sunnis and Shiites. Hamza Ismail announced in May 19, 2011 that the PASS began an allyship with the Syrian Resistance, another Marxist-Leninist organization to fight Muslim rebels.

Syrian Civil War
During the Syrian Civil War, Hamza Ismail was concerned over the lack of weapons supplies that the PASS had access to. Ismail flew to Moscow begging the Russians for aid in weapons. Vladimir Putin agreed to sent a total of $3,000,000 worth of weapons supplies to members of PASS. Next, Hamza flew to Beijing from Moscow askin Ju Jintao for aid. Although the Chinese government stated that they would like to help PASS, but it would strain relations with the United States. Nonetheless, the Chinese did agree to sent PASS old Cold War-era weapons of limited aid.

In 2012, the PASS carried out a series of sabotage attacks against strongholds controlled by the Syrian rebels. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Iran's president also announced that he would support PASS, gaining the attention of Israel and Western nations. Obama warned PASS to "cease its ruthless attacks" or else harsh and well-deserved intervention would occur.

The Israeli government was concerned, when the Mossad learned that 45 Israeli citizens, all were non-Arab but Jewish atheists (Hilonim) had supported and joined PASS and were helping PASS prevent western interests.

ISIS Problem
During the emergence of ISIL, or ISIS - the PASS announced a new goal, "Wipe out ISIS, and then wipe out the western influences". King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia ended up criticizing PASS and calling them anarchists.The PASS also sent death threats to King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia, and promised the "end of the Wahabi devils" once things were cleared in the Levant and Iraq.

In Iraq, the members of PASS received death threat from ISIS. The Iraqi PASS leader, Wa'il al-Mustafa ibn Ali responded with back-death threats against ISIS and promised "total war and annihilation" against the "sub-humans". Wa'il al-Mustafa ibn Ali later followed by sending members of ISIS a picture of himself with a beer in one hand, and an AK-47 in another hand with the phrase "come get some" in Arabic.

On September 11, 2014, PASS leaders in Iraq and Syria began the "Al-Maʿarri Offensive", targetting ISIS strongholds in Iraq. The PASS also helped stage a valiant resistance in the Syrian Christian village of Ma'aloula claiming to have taken the city back from the Islamic militants.

Barack Obama leader accused the PASS of carrying out "atrocities" against Muslims. Hamza Ismail claimed that PASS has killed over 983,000 members of ISIS. Wa'il al-Mustafa ibn Ali also took pictures of PASS fighters celebrating with severed heads of ISIS fighters while pouring beer.

The PASS continues to fight against ISIS and all Muslim militant members.
