(A) Even as they never forgave
(B) While they never forgave
(C) Just like they never forgave
(D) Similarly to not forgiving

why B is wrong?

almost every last one of users is talking about the rule of "as" + "action", but what would they say about the same old - "He acted like a fool" - here is the action and b.c. the action is made by person, not by thing, like is required. Syrians are not thing, so IMO like is appropriate, hence C.
we are the champions !
