Middle East Violence (content may offend)

There's a clip going around of a druze village in southern Syria voting to be a part of Israel, saying that all the Druze villages in the area agree.
Either they're fucking idiots (a Muslim off shoot minority being under Israeli law? Craziness) or the 'Rebels' aren't as nice as we're being made to believe (Picking a 'healthier' poison?).
 
Iran wants to put to death some female musician for doing a video without a hijab.
Seems her 'type of music' (seemed like rock to me) is not really allowed in the Islamic society Iran's religious rulers believe in.

Nothing crazy about it. Druze enjoy full rights in Israel, serve in the IDF (including some of the most elite units) and have ample political representation in Knesset. Some of the 10/7 hostages were Druze and several Druze soldiers gave their lives to protect Jewish civilians.

On the whole Syrian Druze would be far safer, not to mention more prosperous, in Israel. Remains to be seen if Israel will go to the trouble of trying to help them and thus get embroiled in the Syrian matters.
 
Violence and chaos? Surely you couldn't get more violence and chaos than what was already happening?

Thanks for adding more information.

The same villagers said this is not right yesterday. Based on what you're saying, and the concerns with the rebels, it seems these folks are stuck between a rock and a hard place.

I don’t know how it will end… but I really wish them success.


I've seen a ton of comments around this, re how will it end.
Lots of ppl have said leave em to it, let them enjoy the freedom before they start to think about the future.
It's certainly a jubilant mood in many of the cities at the moment.

The scenes from the prisons were evil. People tortured to the point they didn't know their own names.

I suppose it should be celebrated that an evil dictator have been ousted.

However, Turkish backed rebels in the north,
American backed taking their bits. IDF incursions and I'm sure many others inc UAE wanting involvement then it doesn't look good for the future.

Good news - released.
I wonder why ...
 
The news from Sudan gets worse ...



At least one leader is trying to end this madness ... Are there any more caring leaders out there than Erodgan!?

 
Lots of reports of the gas pipeline now continuing from Qatar to Turkey via Syria.
It was stopped by Assad.
Turkey helping to bin Assad helps them.
Not sure I'd call Erdoğan a caring leader, there's always gotta be something in it. Not sure he's really our here being a benevolent leader for peace and justice.
Plus I'm sure the Kurds defo wouldn't call him caring
 
Remember Rafah was a red line once upon a time.
As was killing aid workers, there was some chatter after the world kitchen and workers were murdered a few months back, few weeks ago another 2 were killed.. nothing.
Aid was a red line before the election, Israel continued to stop aid white house did nothing.
 


The BBC has also seen leaked documents showing that Instagram - another Meta-owned platform - increased its moderation of Palestinian user comments after October 2023.

There was a report recently also around the use of WhatsApp as part of Israeli AI usage to target people they call it Lavender.

The head of policy for Israeli and Jewish diaspora was chief of staff for Netanyahu for quite a while and championed as the the advance in dialogue for state of Israeli and FB.

Rohingyans have previously sued FB for their role in amplifying hate against them in Myanmar.
The Brit govt obviously comfortable calling the atrocities against Rohingyas ethnic cleansing and genocide.

Haaretz having spoken to former and current IDF soldiers report soldiers condemned as cowards for not killing innocent people, soldiers filling bodies with bullets, anyone crossing a specific line gets a hole in the head, terrorist or not.

So much for the human shield
So much for israel moral army
Lies and manipulation to allow the murder, genocide and ethnic cleansing of a people.
