This barren area of the #Syrian desert was home to an informal settlement of up to 50,000 displaced people at its peak. The #Rukban (‘berm’) camp was never recognized by the #UNHCR and received minimal assistance. It's hard to imagine how people survived there for so many years.

BREAKING via CNN: “The Trump administration is expected to invoke the Alien Enemies Act of 1798, a sweeping wartime authority, in the coming days. The move is designed to speed up the president’s mass deportation pledge.”

Labour's welfare cuts are similar to the Nazi's T4 Program. They are basically saying that if you are unable to work, you are a burden to society, thus they will force you into work or extreme poverty. Or wave the assisted suicide bill in your face. @UKLabour

🚨BREAKING: Donald Trump has fired the Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman, General C.Q. Brown. He is a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force. REPOST if you stand with General Brown against Trump!

No.

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

Blair, Obama, Netanyahu,etc rushed to support & partner with Putin (a neo-nazi icon) in Syria in the name of "foreign policy realism". Trump, Musk, Farage, the AfD & Putin's other Eurofascist allies/satraps are the beneficiaries of that normalisation -Putin's "foreign policy realism" in the West.

Young #Syrians are carrying out cleaning and repair campaigns and collecting government papers related to the #Assad regime in order to hand them over to the new government. They are also carrying out several other activities in order to help rebuild #Syria and assist the new government in this work

HTS DETAINEES Family members of detainees held by HTS in Idlib protested in Aleppo today, demanding their release. Reports suggest those held are members of civil society that have been detained for exercising their rights, some having spent months, some years. Though reports are also.. 1/2

More families are leaving #Rukban. - After living in extreme poverty for many years, people once again must rely on themselves, as no NGOs, #UN agencies or the #SARC have provided any assistance for transportation at all.

1 rich member of the US elite shot another rich member of the US elite in the back coz the USA has a shitty healthcare system & they're acting like he stormed the Bastille. I hope Americans get a decent govt & healthcare system,but Luigi Mangione is not the revolutionary soul of the sans culottes.

Anyone wanting to know about the Syrian revolution (NOT Western media's, including or perhaps especially "alternative" media's, revised version of it) should read the whole thread.

Truly the world is changing fast - apparently Sweden's adopted US currency.

This is solidarity. 💚 After Russia suspended wheat supplies to Syria, the Ukrainian Minister of Agriculture announced today: "We want to supply grain to Syria and we are ready to do so." - Baladi News December 13, 2024 www.facebook.com/baladinetwor...

Despite rumors that the Syrian Arab Red Crescent (#SARC) will help return displaced #Syrians, they are nowhere to be seen on the ground in #Rukban, nor have residents been contacted by them. As usual, the people of Rukban are alone while any #UN agencies are embarrassingly absent. #NeverForget

Changing the name of "#Assad Square" to "March 18 Square" in #Daraa Al-Mahatta #Syria

#Watch the most beautiful meeting of a #man who was displaced 14 years ago because of the #Assad #regime Then he returned to her again after the liberation of #Syria. and is now reunited with his mother in the Baba Amr neighborhood of #Homs

The Assads' 'resistance' regime' "An official from the Palestinian ministry of foreign affairs told AFP that 114 families have asked it for help locating relatives missing in Syria since the first regime jails were opened." www.omanobserver.om/article/1163...

The man who smuggled the infamous Caesar photos of people murdered by the regime to the wider world. He says even his children didn’t know it was him, but now that Assad has fallen he can speak freely Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DDfTN8c...

A father & his son (Moayad & Abdulaziz al-Obaid) were tortured to death in #Sednaya in 2020 by #Assad, following their forced return from the #Rukban camp. The repatriation was arranged by the SARC & the Russian 'Reconciliation Center for Syria'. @ScottLucas_EA eaworldview.com/2022/11/assa...

Unless the Syrian Arab Red Crescent (SARC) has already purged its regime-infiltrated leadership, their efforts to support #detainees sounds like a bad joke. We know of young men who were forcibly returned from #Rukban with the #SARC under 'reconciliation' agreements just to disappear in #Sednaya.

"We brought you a housewarming gift to welcome you to the new place, Bashar... No, of course there's no Novichok in it. Great view up here. Lovely big windows..."

Authorities in Damascus have announced that the citizenship granted to 700,000 Iranian and Iraqi Shiites by the former regime in gratitude for their service to Assad before he was overthrown by Syrian revolutionaries, will be revoked and considered invalid as of next Sunday, December 15, 2024.

The funeral #procession of #Syrian #activist Mazen al-Hamada is taking place in the city of #Damascus in #Syria .

Travis Timmerman from Missouri, USA crossed from Lebanon to Syria months ago (while Syrian refugees were still being forcibly repatriated & 'disappeared' in Assad's prisons) to make a "pilgrimage" to Damascus... 🤦‍♀️ Truly, God watches over the fools & the children. www.nbcnews.com/news/world/a...

The Arab world will surely struggle to recover from the pain of losing resistance icons Assad & Galloway in the same week. 🥳🕺💃🎉🥂

Assad (birthday 9/11) sponsored & relied on AQ & ISIS for years as tools to justify his own genocidal repression, backed by Putin & aided by their & Washington's SDF allies. But we're all supposed to pretend that we don't know this & that we don't know that Washington knows & was a-okay with this.

NEW: Reform UK have appeared on BBC Question Time three times as often as the SNP since the General Election, despite having half the number of MPs. The LibDems, who have 67 more MPs than Reform, have appeared just once more than Nigel Farage's party

Russian refugee to Syria about start of the Syrian war: "Kids wrote on walls: "Down with Assad". They were arrested and tortured. Their relatives gathered and asked to let them go. After refuse locals came out to demonstrate in Daraa. This demonstration was shot down" web.archive.org/web/20170126...

Why are Tories always so keen to confirm that they're utter scumbags who view Ebenezer Scrooge (pre-ghostly visits) as a role model? And why would Scots vote for anything but the SNP & independence?

Finally. 💚💚💚

They found in one of the notebooks inside the #Palestine Branch in #Damascus, which is affiliated with the Military Intelligence, written: “Arrest of a #woman and her two #children because her husband is a (terrorist) against Bashar al-Assad.”

Trump: I'm gonna ditch democracy, trash the constitution, institute Christian theocracy and sell the country to foreign billionaire oligarchs. Most Americans: This sounds like a rational and competent leader we can put our trust in.

Israeli attacks on Gaza are killing dozens in residential areas, including children. As the situations in Lebanon and Syria continue to evolve, in Gaza the killing is consistently www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/12...

A refrigerator was found containing several bags containing bones and skulls, with only the names of cities written on them, and it is not known who these were. They were dismembered and decomposed bodies that were inside the #Assad slaughterhouses.

This is how the Syrians destroyed the statue of Hafez al-Assad by shooting heavy-caliber bullets at the statue's face in #Syria

Western media pundits: "Assad's downfall means terror and extremism, a Taliban Syria!" Syrians: Re-cleaning some of Damascus' streets...with a song called "We Want to Rebuild It with Love" December 11, 2024

A Syrian Takes the sexy clothes Asma al-Assad was wearing to Bashar al-Assad 🫣😅

Israel is panicking that Assad's gone & is destroying Syria's military capabilities while Syrians are exhausted after 13 years of fighting for freedom, because Netanyahu's worried free peoples will support each other. Corbynites who've spent 13 years rimming Assad & Putin should really sit TF down.

Assad's Iranian allies claimed to be in Syria to defend women from extremism... '...women and girls sending videos of themselves unveiled to media outside Iran or “otherwise engaging in peaceful activism” may be sentenced to death.' www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

As Syrians said for 13 years, the "refugee crisis" was actually a "genocidal tyrant crisis" 'It turns out the answer to the refugee crisis that sent millions of Syrians into neighbouring countries and Europe may simply be the removal of a murderous dictator.' www.ft.com/content/48e5...

Heaven forbid Saudi women would tell their own stories. "As a female explorer, I’m uniquely able to spend time with Saudi women and tell their stories." news.stv.tv/east-central...

Hoping the Assads pick a top-floor apartment in a Moscow skyscraper with lots of large windows. 'Peskov said Putin was not planning to meet with Assad, whose usefulness as a client and proxy for Russia in the Middle East is now, it’s fair to say, utterly spent.' www.news.com.au/world/middle...

A government of oligarchs that will exist to solely serve the interests of oligarchs while distracting working people with culture wars. And people can complain all they want about a Trump screenshot. I almost never post any here and this is important so just block me instead of whining.
