Only a few people are fully acquainted with the intellectual, literary and political works of Dr. Khalil Saadeh, father of Antoun Saadeh (founder of the Syrian Social Nationalist
Party). Out of their awareness to the cultural and historical significance of Dr. Saadeh’s remnants, Badr el-Hage and Salim Mujaes have embarked on collecting the scattered articles and works of Saadeh in several volumes, with a view to honor the intellectual legacy of this man and revive the values and principles he espoused. The second volume entitled Syria and the French Mandate- 1920-1923 contains a series of the political articles written by Saadeh in Al-Jarida. In these articles, Khalil Saadeh launched a campaign against French occupiers, employing his pen and thoughts at the service of liberty and independence.
