Might Be The End of an Era- Dictator Bashar al-Assad and his family flea, ending his regime

Dude is the local Russian propaganda outlet

And the star of david ashkenazis have their thumb so far up your ass it's playing peek a boo through your mouth.

 

[Pull Up the Roots]

All the juicy details. Turkey being a$$holes

IRGC have redeployed back into Syria commander Ghaffari the "Butcher of ISIS"

Danny Haiphong? Your posts make a lot more sense now

 

[Problematic Pat]

what's next? I`m totally ignorant to what's going on here

World War 3. Neither Iran nor Russia can ignore that. National security risk. They definitely bout to carpet bomb that bytch. Assad held out since 2011. I didn't think he would make it. He went from a Doctor to president to immediately fighting for the survival of his country by terrorists backed the by US and its allies. History is gonna tell a long and unkind story of this country and the death and destruction it unleashed on the world in less than 75 years. The body count is gotta be insane. We gotta remember that sanctions lead to alot of civilian deaths as much as or more than war does and the governments both liberal or conservative weren't stingy in handing them out.

Yeah, if Russia wasn't preoccupied in Ukraine, the rebels wouldn't be making so much progress.

Ukraine is Russia's Iraq, a war not to be won

The current savage war they're waging amongst themselves is nothing new..

They're a historically invading genocidal war mongering force.

How do you think these Eurasians came to occupy a region they don't originate from..Israelis included

I actually thought the Russians might move their remaining troops in Syria to the area from Latakia to Tartus and then proclaim themselves a peace keeping force protecting Christians, Alawites and other minorities in the coastal area.

Their SAMs don't stop Israel. The IAF struck chemical plants in western Syria today. It seems more likely that any Russian ship will be shot at with drones, rockets & artillery. Russia is seemingly removing missiles, which are susceptible explosives in transit & vulnerable even to small arms fire.

So now ..... sharia law takes over in place of a relatively secular regime. I'm sure the ghosts of former secular Libya and Iraq, as imperfect as they were will not show up and women will not be immediately forced into hijabs, etc.

Im sure that will not happen.

‘He has come out an old man’: joy and grief as loved ones released from Assad prisons​

Family members describe renewed hopes after decades-long searches for political detainees in ‘Kingdom of Silence’

William Christou in Beirut

Sat 7 Dec 2024 03.00 EST

Moammar Ali has been searching for his older brother for 39 years.

In 1986, Syrian soldiers arrested the university student Ali Hassan al-Ali, then 18, at a checkpoint in north Lebanon. Moammar has not heard from him since.

He spent the next three decades visiting different security branches in Syria, where he would receive conflicting information on the whereabouts of his brother.

“There was no place in Syria we didn’t visit. We went around the whole country asking what happened to him. One day they would admit they had him in prison, the next day they would deny it,” Ali, a resident of Akkar, north Lebanon, said.

The last information Ali received about his brother was that he was being held in a military security branch in Damascus on charges of political agitation. Then, Syria’s revolution and subsequent civil war began and Ali no longer received any updates on his brother’s status.

Until Thursday night, when Ali’s phone started to buzz. Friends, relatives and family members began sending him the same picture: a bedraggled man in his late 50s, standing dazed in front of the Hama central prison in north Syria.

“They said he resembled me. I told them: ‘this is my brother!’ The feeling … it’s indescribable. Imagine that I haven’t seen him for 39 years and then all of a sudden his picture is sent to you, how would you feel?” Ali said.

His brother, who entered prison as an 18-year-old, was now 57. “He has come out of prison as an old man.”

Ali’s brother was one of the thousands of prisoners released from Syrian government prisons in Aleppo and Hama after Islamist rebels led by Hayat al-Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) captured the city. In the last week, HTS-led forces have routed those of the Syrian army in north Syria in a stunning offensive – the most serious challenge to Bashar al-Assad’s control of Syria since the revolution in 2011.

One of the first actions rebels took in newly captured cities was to release detainees from government detention centres. Videos showed stunned-looking people emerging from prisons, where joyous crowds awaited them.

Syrians prisons, where an estimated 136,000 people were detained up until this week, are to many emblematic of the government repression that earned Syria the title of the “Kingdom of Silence”. Thousands of protesters were arrested during the revolution for speaking out against the government.

Leaked documents showed the Syrian security apparatus viewed prisons as a key way to crush dissent and stop the momentum of peaceful protests. The vast network of security branches, detention centres and prisons grew notorious for their brutal torture methods, which rights groups said were applied on an industrial scale.

“A lot of those who had been forcibly disappeared previously, we discovered that they had been killed. A considerable amount had been killed under torture,” said Fadel Abdulghany, the founder of the Syrian Network for Human Rights who is originally from Hama.

Abdulghany said that while the release of political prisoners should be celebrated and encouraged, indiscriminate, mass release of prisoners could carry significant risk – particularly if violent offenders were also let out.

The sudden release of thousands of prisoners created renewed hope for families who had heard nothing about the fate of their loved ones for years. Grainy screenshots of released detainees circulated on WhatsApp groups around Syria and neighbouring countries, as family members tried to see if their relatives were among those released.

“You can’t imagine how it was yesterday; a lot of friends contacted me to ask about my father,” said Jinan, a resident of a border village in south Lebanon who spoke under a pseudonym for fear of security repercussions for her family.

Jinan’s father was arrested in 2006 after crossing into Syria during the Hezbollah-Israel war to find refuge for his family. “As soon as he arrived at our relatives’ house, there was a knock at the door and he was arrested,” Jinan said. She had not heard from her father since.

Jinan and her family made several visits to Syria to inquire about her father’s release. After paying about $5,500 (£4,300) to various intermediaries, she was told her father was either being held in Branch 235 or Sednaya prison – two detention centres in Damascus infamous for torture.

“We still have hope, I feel like he’s still alive and I think he will come back and live with us. I don’t support any armed groups that are killing people, but if my father comes back … We need him,” Jinan said.

Confusion has reigned as the fast-changing political dynamics in northern Syria make it difficult for authorities to identity who has been released – and return them to their families.

Ali has still not been able to make direct contact with his brother and has spent the past 24 hours trying to track down who took the photo of him after his release from prison.

“When he comes home, we will have a big celebration. But until I smell him, until I can say, ‘Here he is, my brother,’ nothing counts,” Ali said.

Rebels are within 6km from Assad's palace. Locals are tearing down Assad images & signs 15 minutes from the Palace. Russia is fleeing Tartus port and Iran is evacuating forces. An emergency meeting to be held between Turkey, Iran, Russia, Iraq, Egypt, Jordan, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia. #freeSyria

Lavrov interviewed by British journalist, addressing Syria, Gaza Middle East and Ukraine geopolitics. It's worth listening to the quality of his leadership and diplomacy, carried by honesty, integrity and common sense decency. His rhetoric is firmly rooted in the real world, in stark contrast to Western politicians and Nato leaders who's words sound like children's tantrums and juelzing to uphold an insane world view and an old hegemonic world order of exploitation and bullying.

America is supporting lunatic jihadists, Nazis, and genocidal war. Nato wants to put bases and military presence in Indo-Pacific. What the fukk for? What business does Nato have in east Asia?? What benefit is it to American people? Can you see that this is all a giant corrupt evil morally bankrupt grift?
