#suweida

On one hand I'm watching as millions are being starved in Gaza. 85% of the population are facing extreme consequences directly as a result of the man-made famine and forced starvation by Israel. And no one who has the power to help is doing anything. Egypt still refuses to open the Rafah border. There are enough trucks to feed all of Gaza waiting just outside, ready to go in, but no one is letting them enter. We're watching as a million children are on the brink of death and the world watches silently, as everyone goes on with their day.

Tomb of Hamrath

Suweida, Syria

50 BCE~

This late Hellenistic tomb at Suweida is known from its inscription in Aramaic to have belonged to a woman named Hamrath. - “נפשה די חמרת די בנה לה אדינת בעלה” - “This is the (funerary )monument of Hamrath built by Adinat her husband”

The remains of an intercolumnar shield have long been attested.

Syrian Army Surrounds ISIS pocket in Suweida Desert after two month long effort to contain a spontaneous uprising

Syrian government forces continue their advance against Daesh militants in the vicinity of Tulul al-Safa in the Suweida desert, a Sputnik correspondent has reported.

The Syrian army has surrounded the last Daesh militant stronghold near the area of Tulul al-Safa, the Sputnik correspondent reported. The government’s forces continue to launch rocket and artillery fire against the terrorists. According to the correspondent, the shelling has killed dozens of militants and led to the destruction of a truck loaded with ammunition.

the operation is ongoing, since Islamic State cells exploded out of nowhere on June 7th in the remote volcanic desert plane to kill, capture SAA soldiers and destroy various vehicles. Prior to this was known “jihadist activity”

I've been called sectarian for pointing this out, but it's the truth. Other Druze leaders have very openly condemned Al Hijri and want peace and have been willing to work with the new government for the past 7 months.

Al Hijri, who's a drug dealer, and who has ties to the Assad regime as well as to Israel was the one always standing in the way.

he's the one refusing ceasefire after ceasefire, breaking agreement after agreement, and the one starting the violence.

His militias spent months terrorizing civilians, both Druze and otherwise. They're barely letting aid come through, beheading children, massacring entire families, and displacing thousands of people.

The media is trying to spin this as Druze vs Sunnis when the reality is that practically everyone other than Al Hijri and his gang (and Israel) want Al Hijri to surrender.

Sectarianism certainly plays a key role in these recent events, and Hijri's actions have ignited hatred towards all Druze which is a problem (and seems to have been the goal, to further divide the Syrian people) and this must be condemned, and the government should be criticized for the way it's handled the situation thus far for a variety of reasons, but acting like Al Hijri's crimes aren't the root of the problem, and acting like this started from the government prosecuting Druze minorities is dishonest and untrue.

There's so much misinformation and propaganda going on, and there's also a habit of acting like the Sunni majority (who suffered the most during the past 14 years) are always the perpetrators, when that's not true.

Everything happening in Syria is directly a result of 50 years of oppression by the Assad regime, and the Assad regime spent all those decades ignoring sectarianism and dividing the Syrian people.

Western media, Zionist media, and axis of resistance media will twist the narrative and make you believe "the Syrian gov't invaded Suweida to massacre innocent Druze"

what they won't tell you is that violent, Israel backed, Assist Druze militias have been causing terror and wrecking havoc in the province of Suweida for years. What they won't tell you is that civilians in Suweida, both Druze and otherwise, have been suffering on their hands. What they won't tell you is that most of the Druze population in Syria with the exception of those aligned with Hijri (a war criminal and traitor working with Israel) want peace and are open to working with the new Syrian government and that it was THEM who requested aid and requested the government's intervention. What they won't mention is that whew the government responded to those requests ad sent in men to check out the situation, Al Hijri's thugs murdered them and began parading their dead bodies in the streets. What they won't tell you is that the "innocent Druze being targeted by the horrible terrorist Syrian government >:(" are actually members of a militia complicit in war crimes and they SHOULD be arrested nd taken down. What they won't tell you is Israel bombed suweida several times, murdering people in the name of "protecting Druze" (really it's to weaken the Syrian government because Israel can't possibly have a powerful neighbour, that would be too much of a "threat" to Israel's genocide committing ass) something the Druze population never asked for.
