Syria today: Sunnis killing Alawites, Alawites killing Sunnis, Muslims killing Christians, Sunnis killing Druze, Druze killing….

What is happening right now in Syria is horrendous and very reminiscent of the way the Nazis treated the Jews.

I won’t share the videos because they are too horrible but where the hell are all the people yelling about a genocide in Gaza? Why are they silent now when an ACTUAL genocide is taking place?

No Jews, no news, huh?

A bunch of Jew hating hypocrites who couldn’t possibly care less about Gaza and are just capitalizing on the misfortune of innocent Gazans to vilify the Jews.

The entire global community should be up in arms about what’s happening in Syria right before our eyes.

They aren’t only butchering the Druze there but they are also humiliating them by shaving off their mustaches while laughing and live streaming it!!

Where is the UN? Where is Amnesty? Where is the ICC? Where is CNN? BBC?

Where the hell are all of them?

Disgusting and vile that they are remaining silent now.

Israel better step up for our Druze brothers. As should the rest of the free world but we already know how morally bankrupt they are.

I hope Israel puts an abrupt end to this terrible travesty.

This guy managed to trick everyone, everyone except Israel.

Once a terrorist, always a terrorist, whether or not he’s wearing a tie.

80 years ago the Nazis humiliated religious Jews by shaving off their beards and beating them in public. Today we are seeing IslamoNazis in Syria doing the exact same thing to the Druze. Israel is the only nation standing up for the Druze. Why is the rest of the world so silent?

Syria’ Kaleidoscope of Death

 BY

Since the overthrow of Bashar Assad and the ascension of Ahmed al-Sharaa, who led the rebel group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, to become the new president of Syria, there have been a series of attacks on, or between, various ethnic and religious groups. Latakia, on the coast, is the stronghold and heartland of the Alawites who formed the backbone of support for the Assad regime, with the army’s leaders, its officer corps, and many of its men, being Alawites like Assad himself. The Alawites are an offshoot of Shi’a Islam, and regarded by many Sunnis as too unorthodox to be considered true Muslims. Thus there are both political and religious reasons for the now-victorious Sunnis in Syria to want to crush the Alawites, to punish them for their long support of Assad, and to make sure that the Alawites understand that in the new Syria they exist not by right but by sufferance.

In Latakia, after Alawites had launched an attack on government forces, Sunni Muslims belonging to various Islamic groups and also, apparently, to the regular army, launched a series of reprisal attacks on Alawites in the region. Those attacks lasted from March 6 to March 17, and at least 1500 Alawites, mostly civilians, were killed. Some Alawites say that “tens of thousands” were killed. In addition, there have been intermittent murderous attacks on Alawites in Damascus and other cities outside the Alawite heartland. President Al-Sharaa claimed that forces under his control had nothing to do with the attacks, and he promised to punish those responsible for attacks on Alawite civilians. But that did not reassure the Alawites, in Latakia and elsewhere, who now live in fear of Sunni attacks. And so far, Al-Sharaa’s promises to see justice done have led to no arrests of Sunnis.

In addition to the Alawites, the Christians of Syria have been subject to attack from Sunni Muslims, mostly in Damascus and Aleppo. On June 22, just outside of Damascus, the ancient church of Mar Elias (St. Elias) was blown up in a suicide bombing by an Islamic jihadi. Twenty-five worshippers were killed and sixty wounded. The top Greek Orthodox religious authority in Syria described the bombing as the “worst attack on Christians in Syria” since 1860.

Al-Sharaa vowed that those behind the bombing would be found and called for national unity against “injustice and crime.” But many Christians in Syria have been angered that their dead were not described as “martyrs,” as Muslim victims of terrorist attacks routinely are, and they do not trust that the government possesses either the will or the ability to protect them from further attacks by Sunni jihadis. There is a fear of a mass exodus of Christians. ISIS sleeper cells still have a presence in the country; Al-Sharaa has not dared to take them on and try to expel them from the new Syria, the country where, according to Al-Sharaa, all minorities will be safe. Instead, no minority has been safe.

At the funeral for the church bombing victims, John Yazigi, the Greek Orthodox Patriarch of Antioch, insisted that “We are a main component in this country and we are staying.” But many of his flock are leaving. At first, they were willing to give the new regime a chance, but they no longer trust Al-Sharaa’s assurances that they will be safe.

Christians made up about 10% of Syria’s prewar population of 23 million, enjoying freedom of worship under the Assad government and holding high government posts. Now the Christian population has decreased from more than 2.2 million at the start of the civil war to 300,000 today. In a nationwide survey conducted in May, 85% of Sunnis said they felt safe under the current authorities, compared with 45% of the Christians, 21% of Alawites and 18% of Druze. who felt safe. Apparently the Kurds, of whom there are 2.5 million in Syria, were not part of the survey. And that survey was taken before the Mar Elias church was blown up; the percentage of Christians who “feel safe” in Syria has plummeted because of that attack.

Now Sunni jihadis, who have previously attacked Alawites in Latakia and elsewhere, and Christians in Damascus and Aleppo, have been attacking the Druze minority. Most recently, the Druze and Bedouin Sunnis have been fighting in southern Syria. The fighting seems to have been set off by the abduction, and possible murder, of a Druze merchant by Bedouin. The Druze are seen by many Sunni Muslims not as being “believers in a version of Islam,” but rather, as not being real Muslims at all.

That’s Syria today: Sunnis killing Alawites, Alawites killing Sunnis, Muslims killing Christians, Sunnis killing Druze, Druze killing Sunni Bedouins, Sunni Bedouins killing Druze, foreign fighters killing Kurds and Christians and Alawites. It’s a kaleidoscope of death, with each new shake leading to a picture of different aggressors and different victims. Maybe Al-Sharaa will in the end be able to stop these endless settling of scores, and of Muslim hardliners attacking those they consider to be insufficiently Muslim. Maybe domestic peace and tranquility will prevail, after the vast sums now being provided to Syria by the rich Arabs of the Gulf improve the country’s economy; the UAE has just promised to provide $800 million to rebuild the port at Tartous, so that it can be better used to bring in the enormous amounts of building material that will be needed for the physical reconstruction of the country. And the American government has now lifted its sanctions on Syria, a big boost to Al-Sharaa, who not so long ago, as a supporter of Al-Qaeda, had a $10 million bounty placed on his head by the American government. Maybe Al-Sharaa will be able to have all sorts of lions lie down with all sorts of lambs in Syria. But don’t bet the farm on it.
