I call on the site officials to replace the
Syrian flag and adopt the new flag thank you .

It will be appropriate once the a coalition government is formed and fully assumes control of Syria's international representation; and likewise officially amends the flag. As of me posting the Syrian transitional government (STG) is attempting a coalition with the former regime's PM: Mohammad Ghazi al-Jalali; and the STG nominated PM: Mohammed al-Bashir.

It is important to clarify the flag's origins (for new viewers), it being the flag of the 1st and 2nd Syrian Republics; and that the flag has been adopted by many groups including by Islamic extremists. However the flag itself carries no extremist connotation.

I guess once Syria officially declares this as their official flag with an international recognized government, either with a law or an official statement, CC will make the change. I don't know what standard they follow, maybe UN recognized flags?
