Fuck the Druze.
YPJ condemns attacks on the Druze people: We are ready to confront all dark forces that target women
<"The struggle for the brotherhood of peoples, women’s freedom, and interfaith coexistence must not be allowed to take even a single step backward. We stand with the Druze people. Women will never be silent, and they will never bow their heads," YPJ said.
The General Command of the Women’s Protection Units (YPJ) released a statement strongly condemning and denouncing the massacre against the Druze people, and reaffirming their solidarity with the women and civilians affected.
The YPJ statement calling for those responsible for the massacres committed against Druze civilians to be held accountable, reads as follows:
“Once again, the extremist jihadist groups, under the leadership of the Damascus government, have targeted innocent civilians. This violence is systematic and directed against the Druze community. The massacres and brutal assaults on women are a direct threat to human dignity and women’s freedom.
We, the Women’s Protection Units (YPJ), firmly condemn these heinous attacks. The targeting and abduction of women, children, and civilians is incompatible with any moral or human principle. Such acts are enemies of diversity, the freedom of peoples, and the very existence of women. The Druze people are not alone. As women fighters, we are fully prepared to stand against any aggression targeting the will of the people, the right to life, and the belief in freedom.
If called upon, we are ready to confront all dark forces that target women. In order to protect Druze women and civilians, we will shoulder all responsibilities placed upon us without hesitation. As the Women’s Protection Units, standing against attacks on women and oppressed peoples wherever they may be is not only our duty — it is the foundation of our existence.
Those responsible for the massacres committed against Druze women must be held accountable, the perpetrators must be prosecuted, and justice must be served. The struggle for the brotherhood of peoples, women’s freedom, and interfaith coexistence must not be allowed to take even a single step backward. We stand with the Druze people. Women will never be silent, and they will never bow their heads.
Woman, Life, Freedom.”

>>2391259>accept help from the people who made the plan to create those Islamoid terrorists since the 90s. I know none of you fuckers will read this, but they literally published this plan in 1996:
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2002/sep/03/worlddispatch.iraqIts roots can be traced, at least in part, to a paper published in 1996 by an Israeli thinktank, the Institute for Advanced Strategic and Political Studies. Entitled "A clean break: a new strategy for securing the realm", it was intended as a political blueprint for the incoming government of Binyamin Netanyahu. As the title indicates, it advised the right-wing Mr Netanyahu to make a complete break with the past by adopting a strategy "based on an entirely new intellectual foundation, one that restores strategic initiative and provides the nation the room to engage every possible energy on rebuilding Zionism …"
Among other things, it suggested that the recently-signed Oslo accords might be dispensed with - "Israel has no obligations under the Oslo agreements if the PLO does not fulfil its obligations" - and that "alternatives to [Yasser] Arafat's base of power" could be cultivated. "Jordan has ideas on this," it added.
It also urged Israel to abandon any thought of trading land for peace with the Arabs, which it described as "cultural, economic, political, diplomatic, and military retreat".
"Our claim to the land - to which we have clung for hope for 2,000 years - is legitimate and noble," it continued. "Only the unconditional acceptance by Arabs of our rights, especially in their territorial dimension, 'peace for peace', is a solid basis for the future."
The paper set out a plan by which Israel would "shape its strategic environment", beginning with the removal of Saddam Hussein and the installation of a Hashemite monarchy in Baghdad.
With Saddam out of the way and Iraq thus brought under Jordanian Hashemite influence, Jordan and Turkey would form an axis along with Israel to weaken and "roll back" Syria. Jordan, it suggested, could also sort out Lebanon by "weaning" the Shia Muslim population away from Syria and Iran, and re-establishing their former ties with the Shia in the new Hashemite kingdom of Iraq. "Israel will not only contain its foes; it will transcend them", the paper concluded.
To succeed, the paper stressed, Israel would have to win broad American support for these new policies - and it advised Mr Netanyahu to formulate them "in language familiar to the Americans by tapping into themes of American administrations during the cold war which apply well to Israel".
At first glance, there's not much to distinguish the 1996 "Clean Break" paper from the outpourings of other right-wing and ultra-Zionist thinktanks … except for the names of its authors.
The leader of the "prominent opinion makers" who wrote it was Richard Perle - now chairman of the Defence Policy Board at the Pentagon.
Also among the eight-person team was Douglas Feith, a neo-conservative lawyer, who now holds one of the top four posts at the Pentagon as under-secretary of policy.
Mr Feith has objected to most of the peace deals made by Israel over the years, and views the Middle East in the same good-versus-evil terms that he previously viewed the cold war. He regarded the Oslo peace process as nothing more than a unilateral withdrawal which "raises life-and-death issues for the Jewish state".
Two other opinion-makers in the team were David Wurmser and his wife, Meyrav (see US thinktanks give lessons in foreign policy, August 19). Mrs Wurmser was co-founder of Memri, a Washington-based charity that distributes articles translated from Arabic newspapers portraying Arabs in a bad light. After working with Mr Perle at the American Enterprise Institute, David Wurmser is now at the State Department, as a special assistant to John Bolton, the under-secretary for arms control and international security.
A fifth member of the team was James Colbert, of the Washington-based Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs (Jinsa) - a bastion of neo-conservative hawkery whose advisory board was previously graced by Dick Cheney (now US vice-president), John Bolton and Douglas Feith.
One of Jinsa's stated aims is "to inform the American defence and foreign affairs community about the important role Israel can and does play in bolstering democratic interests in the Mediterranean and the Middle East". In practice, a lot of its effort goes into sending retired American military brass on jaunts to Israel - after which many of them write suitably hawkish newspaper articles or letters to the editor.
Jinsa's activities are examined in detail by Jason Vest in the September 2 issue of The Nation. The article notes some interesting business relationships between retired US military officers on Jinsa's board and American companies supplying weapons to Israel.
With several of the "Clean Break" paper's authors now holding key positions in Washington, the plan for Israel to "transcend" its foes by reshaping the Middle East looks a good deal more achievable today than it did in 1996. Americans may even be persuaded to give up their lives to achieve it.
The six-year-old plan for Israel's "strategic environment" remains more or less intact, though two extra skittles - Saudi Arabia and Iran - have joined Iraq, Syria and Lebanon on the hit list.
Whatever members of the Iraqi opposition may think, the plan to replace Saddam Hussein with a Hashemite monarch - descendants of the Prophet Muhammad who rule Jordan - is also very much alive. Evidence of this was strengthened by the surprise arrival of Prince Hassan, former heir to the Jordanian throne, at a meeting of exiled Iraqi officers in London last July.
The task of promoting Prince Hassan as Iraq's future king has fallen to Michael Rubin, who currently works at the American Enterprise Institute but will shortly take up a new job at the Pentagon, dealing with post-Saddam Iraq.
One of the curious aspects of this neo-conservative intrigue is that so few people outside the United States and Israel take it seriously. Perhaps, like President Mubarak, they can't imagine that anyone who holds a powerful position in the United States could be quite so reckless.
But nobody can accuse the neo-conservatives of concealing their intentions: they write about them constantly in American newspapers. Just two weeks ago, an article in the Washington Times by Tom Neumann, executive director of Jinsa, spelled out the plan in clear, cold terms:
"Jordan will likely survive the coming war with US assistance, so will some of the sheikhdoms. The current Saudi regime will likely not.
"The Iran dissident movement would be helped enormously by the demise of Saddam, and the Palestinians would have to know that the future lies with the West. Syria's Ba'athist dictatorship will likely fall unmourned, liberating Lebanon as well.
"Israel and Turkey, the only current democracies in the region, will find themselves in a far better neighbourhood." Would anyone like to bet on that?

>>2391297The "Clean Break" paper came first.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Clean_Break:_A_New_Strategy_for_Securing_the_Realm
> A Clean Break: A New Strategy for Securing the Realm (commonly known as the "Clean Break" report) is a policy document that was prepared in 1996 by a study group led by Richard Perle for Benjamin Netanyahu, the then prime minister of Israel.[1] The report explained a new approach to solving Israel's security problems in the Middle East with an emphasis on "Western values." It has since been criticized for advocating an aggressive new policy including the removal of Saddam Hussein from power in Iraq and the containment of Syria by engaging in proxy warfare and highlighting its possession of "weapons of mass destruction". Certain parts of the policies set forth in the paper were rejected by Netanyahu.[2][3]
<According to the report's preamble,[1] it was written by the Study Group on a New Israeli Strategy Toward 2000, which was a part of the Institute for Advanced Strategic and Political Studies.
<Former United States Assistant Secretary of Defense Richard Perle was the "Study Group Leader," but the final report included ideas from Douglas Feith, James Colbert, Charles Fairbanks Jr., Jonathan Torop, David Wurmser, Meyrav Wurmser, and IASPS president Robert Loewenberg.[4]
>The content of the report is organized into an introduction followed by six sections. The report interleaves within its main commentary text a series of "key passages of a possible speech:"
<While there are those who will counsel continuity, Israel has the opportunity to make a clean break; it can forge a peace process and strategy based on an entirely new intellectual foundation, one that restores strategic initiative and provides the nation the room to engage every possible energy on rebuilding Zionism, the starting point of which must be economic reform.[1]
>The introduction specifically proposes three new policies:
<Rather than pursuing a "comprehensive peace" with the entire Arab world, Israel should work jointly with Jordan and Turkey to "contain, destabilize, and roll-back" those entities that are threats to all three. <Changing the nature of relations with the Palestinians, specifically reserving the right of "hot pursuit" anywhere within Palestinian territory as well as attempting to promote alternatives to Arafat's leadership. <Changing relations with the United States stressing self-reliance and strategic cooperation.
>"This can only be done if Israel takes serious steps to terminate aid, which prevents economic reform."[1]
>"A New Approach to Peace"
<While the previous government, and many abroad, may emphasize land for peace—which placed Israel in the position of cultural, economic, political, diplomatic, and military retreat—the new government can promote Western values and traditions. Such an approach, which will be well received in the United States, includes peace for peace, peace through strength and self reliance: the balance of power.[1]
>"Securing the Northern Border"
<Syria challenges Israel on Lebanese soil. An effective approach, and one with which American can sympathize, would be if Israel seized the strategic initiative along its northern borders by engaging Hizballah, Syria, and Iran, as the principal agents of aggression in Lebanon, including by:
<striking Syria's drug-money and counterfeiting infrastructure in Lebanon, all of which focuses on Razi Qanan.
<paralleling Syria's behavior by establishing the precedent that Syrian territory is not immune to attacks emanating from Lebanon by Israeli proxy forces…[1]
<Israel also can take this opportunity to remind the world of the nature of the Syrian regime. Syria repeatedly breaks its word. It violated numerous agreements with the Turks, and has betrayed the United States by continuing to occupy Lebanon in violation of the Taef agreement in 1989. Instead, Syria staged a sham election, installed a quisling regime, and forced Lebanon to sign a "Brotherhood Agreement" in 1991, that terminated Lebanese sovereignty. And Syria has begun colonizing Lebanon with hundreds of thousands of Syrians, while killing tens of thousands of its own citizens at a time, as it did in only three days in 1983 in Hama. … Given the nature of the regime in Damascus, it is both natural and moral that Israel abandon the slogan comprehensive peace and move to contain Syria, drawing attention to its weapons of mass destruction programs, and rejecting land for peace deals on the Golan Heights.[1]
>"Moving to a Traditional Balance of Power Strategy"
<Israel can shape its strategic environment, in cooperation with Turkey and Jordan, by weakening, containing, and even rolling back Syria. This effort can focus on removing Saddam Hussein from power in Iraq—an important Israeli strategic objective in its own right—as a means of foiling Syria’s regional ambitions.[1]
<Since Iraq's future could affect the strategic balance in the Middle East profoundly, it would be understandable that Israel has an interest in supporting the Hashemites in their efforts to redefine Iraq, including such measures as: visiting Jordan as the first official state visit, even before a visit to the United States, of the new Netanyahu government; supporting King Hussein by providing him with some tangible security measures to protect his regime against Syrian subversion; encouraging—through influence in the U.S. business community—investment in Jordan to structurally shift Jordan's economy away from dependence on Iraq; and diverting Syria's attention by using Lebanese opposition elements to destabilize Syrian control of Lebanon. … Were the Hashemites to control Iraq, they could use their influence over Najf to help Israel wean the south Lebanese Shia away from Hizballah, Iran, and Syria. Shia retain strong ties to the Hashemites: the Shia venerate foremost the Prophet's family, the direct descendants of which—and in whose veins the blood of the Prophet flows—is King Hussein.[1]
<Most important, it is understandable that Israel has an interest supporting diplomatically, militarily and operationally Turkey’s and Jordan’s actions against Syria, such as securing tribal alliances with Arab tribes that cross into Syrian territory and are hostile to the Syrian ruling elite.[1]
>"Changing the Nature of Relations with the Palestinians"
<Israel has a chance to forge a new relationship between itself and the Palestinians. First and foremost, Israel’s efforts to secure its streets may require hot pursuit into Palestinian-controlled areas, a justifiable practice with which Americans can sympathize.[1]
<To emphasize the point that Israel regards the actions of the PLO problematic, but not the Arab people, Israel might want to consider making a special effort to reward friends and advance human rights among Arabs.[1]
>"Forging A New U.S.–Israeli Relationship"
<Israel can make a clean break from the past and establish a new vision for the U.S.–Israeli partnership based on self-reliance, maturity and mutuality—not one focused narrowly on territorial disputes. Israel's new strategy—based on a shared philosophy of peace through strength—reflects continuity with Western values by stressing that Israel is self-reliant, does not need U.S. troops in any capacity to defend it, including on the Golan Heights, and can manage its own affairs.[1]
<To reinforce this point, the Prime Minister can use his forthcoming visit to announce that Israel is now mature enough to cut itself free immediately from at least U.S. economic aid and loan guarantees at least, which prevent economic reform.[1]
>"Conclusions – Transcending the Arab-Israeli Conflict"
<Israel's new agenda can signal a clean break by abandoning a policy which assumed exhaustion and allowed strategic retreat by reestablishing the principle of preemption, rather than retaliation alone and by ceasing to absorb blows to the nation without response."[1]
<"Israel's new strategic agenda can shape the regional environment in ways that grant Israel the room to refocus its energies back to where they are most needed: to rejuvenate its national idea, which can only come through replacing Israel's socialist foundations with a more sound footing; and to overcome its exhaustion, which threatens the survival of the nation.[1]
<Ultimately, Israel can do more than simply manage the Arab-Israeli conflict though war. No amount of weapons or victories will grant Israel the peace its seeks. When Israel is on a sound economic footing, and is free, powerful, and healthy internally, it will no longer simply manage the Arab–Israeli conflict; it will transcend it. As a senior Iraqi opposition leader said recently: Israel must rejuvenate and revitalize its moral and intellectual leadership. It is an important—if not the most important—element in the history of the Middle East. Israel—proud, wealthy, solid, and strong— would be the basis of a truly new and peaceful Middle East.[1] >>2391297I hate Poles so fucking much.

>>2391318>Forgot Druze rats existed in Lebanon too. I imagine they sided with Israel during its past genocidal wars in Lebanon?Never. The PSP in Lebanon is not pro-Israel and has generally sided with the Lebanese left), although they tried to avoid direct conflict with Israel during the Israeli invasion in 1982. They were allies of the Lebanese communists and the PLO in the civil war with the Christian factions, and also allies with Syria for awhile. Jumblatt became anti-Syrian later. (The history of Syrian intervention in Lebanon is also highly opportunistic and they variously fought alongside the PLO and also
against the PLO.)
>>2391006>more accurately, opportunistsAlso this.
>>2391395I'm a "multipolarista" and I've never wished any ill to rojava, although I did point out taking US help and denying economic resources to assad with them was an opportunist move that would likely bite them in the ass eventually (but then again, assad was also an idiot who refused to move toward federalization and offer political solutions and concessions). And for now theres a lot more chance of israel helping them than bombing them. Turks and more importantly new syrian government are their main threat now.
And honestly Id be fucking surprised if anyone here (including your strawman "multipolaroid") ever supported israeli bombings, because theres basically 0 chance it would be helping resist or dismantle US imperialism

>What happened this past weekend with turning point USA was HUGE. It may not seem like it but the event marks an actual turning point in history. If you were paying attention, it should be abundantly clear that Charlie Kirk and turning cannot contain the moods and opinions of conservative youth and have no choice but to adapt to it. Tucker literally said, “if you serve in the IDF, you should have your citizenship REVOKED” and the crowd roared and cheered. Now, Zionists are all over X crying to Kirk about how he betrayed them by platforming Tucker and Dave Smith. The presence of Tucker Carlson and Dave Smith wasn’t an accident. The next generation prefers them over the likes of Laura Jigsaw Loomer, Ben Shapiro and Mark Levin. Kirk is still a Zionist but he cannot stop the momentum of the anti Israel right so he had no choice but to platform them. Otherwise, he’ll lose all relevance. Epstein, JFK, 9/11, and the genocide are all way too big to ignore and Israel’s hands are all over it in one form or another. The tides have overwhelmingly turned against Israel. The collapse of Zionist support on the Right is probably the most important achievement-whether directly or indirectly-of October 7th. The Zionists can spread whatever lies they want about what happened on that fateful day. The reality is that it broke the narrative for good and no amount of laws, money or gaslighting can undo it. And it’s only going to get worse for Zionists. You’ll see. >>2391806Me when proles die (their government was islamist)
Leftists and Bush have much in common
Both sides of this conflict are obviously Ultra-Reactionary Theocratic Bourgeois Fascists, and I was as a critical supporter of Baathist Assad government, who despite their obvious problems (being the Revisionist wing of Baathism that let the Zionist Cucktin and the Controlled Opposition Cuckatollah lead them off a cliff towards Pro-U$/Zionist Sunni Islamist regime change) were obviously the best faction in the Syrian Civil War (The SDF/Rojava/YPG/PKK are a U$/Zionist puppet force led by the traitor OcaCuck, who sold out Kurdistan to the Turks/U$/Zionist by rejecting Marxism-Leninism and Kurdish Self-Determination/National Liberation in favor of Cuckchinte Infantile Anarchist “Democratic Cuckfederaliat Retardation) but with these massive caveats aside, I sadly/tragically have to hold my nose and critically support the Syrian Transitional Government in their conflict against the Zionist Druze cult, who are a proxy/puppet of the U$/Zionist state who are attempting to use their phony atrocity propaganda to create a casua hello for a Genocidal Zionist Invasion of Southern Syria, which will lead to Damascus being turned into Gaza, so as much as I hate the Sunni Islamist HTS Jolani government, they sadly are the clear Lesser Evil to the Zionist Druze cult, so I critically support the Syrian Transitional Government for the same reasons I critically support the controlled opposition Islamic Republic of Iran (along with Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis, etc.) against U$ Imperialism/Zionist State (with the caveat that I still support immediate Maoist PPWs in all of these Periphery Bourgeois Comprador Capitalist countries), because even the most Reactionary Theocratic Fascist forces are a Historically Progressive Lesser Evil when they are in opposition (even a controlled opposition like the “Islamic Republic of Iran”, which was originally used by the U$/Zionist State to begin destroying Baathist Iraq with U$/Zionist weapons in the Iran-Iraq War in order to prevent the unification of the Arab Nation into one state under the leadership of the magnificent Saddam Hussein, who would have forced the Zionists to withdraw from the West Bank and Gaza decades ago, along with liberating Arabistan from the Mossad Mullahs) to U$ Imperialism and the Genocidal Zionist State, thus, Maoists like me Critically supporting the “Islamic Republic of Iran”, Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis, and even HTS, is just like Maoists Critically Supporting the “People’s Republic of China” and the U$ Democratic Party, who play the same Controlled Opposition role against U$ Imperialist Hegemony and the U$ Republican Party, respectively, which is done not because we genuinely support these Bourgeois entities, with the massive caveat that a Maoist faction taking over the CCP and purging the Dengists could place China back in the Socialist Mode of Production on the Shining Path to Communism without another Maoist PPW their, but because they are a “Lesser Evil” faction of the Global Capitalist-Imperialist System who De Facto prevent the “Greater Evil” of the Global Capitalist-Imperialist System from completely crushing the Workers and Oppressed Nations of the World before the inevitable World War III between the U$ and PRC will escalate into a Global Nuclear War that will destroy the entire Global Capitalist-Imperialist System, thus allowing for a World Maoist PPW to create a Global USSR (The SSRs and SFSRs of the Global USSR are shown in the first map I posted, and I plan on posting an improved version of this Map by the end of this month, which will finally divide Sub-Saharan Africa into an appropriate number of SSRs based on its Ethno-Linguistic demographics, which I have been thoroughly researching over the last couple months, while the second Map specifically shows the SSRs and SFSRs of the Global USSR in the Middle East/West Asia are shown, with the difference between it and the first Map being that I added Hatay and Arabistan to the Arab SFSR, and merged the Tajik SSR and Hazara SSR into the Persian SSR, with the latter becoming an ASSR within it, and it is also worth noting that the North African portion of the Arab SFSR is not shown here because Mapchart doesn’t let me zoom in with the key on both West Asia and North Africa so I chose to show the former) that will place the Workers and Oppressed Nations of the World on the Shining Path to Communism, ✊😜🇨🇳🇰🇵🇨🇺🇵🇸🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🚀☢️!

perhaps you one day will outgrow their silly fixation toward Jews. but I doubt it. years stuck in syndicalism tells me you prefer to see if tomorrow you pick the path of benito.

but bibi already ordered a military operation, what's rubio talking about? lmao.
>>2391886Nice try Infantile Anarchist CUCKchinite “Democratic CUCKfederalist” Bourgeois Zionist, the Means of Production in the U$/Zionist military base called “Rojava” are owned by U$ Oil Companies, while the YPG slaughters the majority Arab population who want to free themselves from U$/Zionist occupation (is it not embarrassing that the supposedly “Kurdish” PKK/YPG spend more time killing innocent Arab civilians in Syria, while doing absolutely nothing to liberate the Oppressed Kurdish population in Turkey from the Genocidal Comprador Capitalist Fascist Erdogan NATO/U$/Zionist regime, I guess that’s what happens when you reject Marxism-Leninism and the Self-Determination/National Liberation of Kurdistan in its own SSR, in favor of being U$/Zionist mercenaries who genocide Arabs and whore out their Kurdish Women to Horny White Male Mercenaries using Orientalist fetishization of Middle Eastern Women disguised as Faux Feminist “Jineology”), meanwhile the Immortal Science of Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, the Highest Stage of Marxism, which you denigrate as “upholding a decades dead personality cult”, is currently waging Maoist PPWs in India, the Philippines, Turkey, and Peru, and once the inevitable World War III between the U$ and PRC escalates into a Global Nuclear War that will destroy the entire Global Capitalist-Imperialist System, will launch a World Maoist PPW to create a Global USSR that will place the Workers and Oppressed Nations of the World on the Shining Path to Communism, ✊😜🇨🇳🇰🇵🇨🇺🇵🇸🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🚀☢️!
>>2391904>They didn't say it in their hecking constitution!Yeah they just actually did it, sort of like the reverse of how the Marxists say they are going to do it but don't actually do it. Three-quarters of land is held communally while one-third of production is under the control of workers councils according to economic ministers.
>>2391909The only maoist ppw I respect was Chairman Gonzalo's now its just a bunch of retards running around with guns getting their shit pushed in by the state for social-democracy. Thank you for diagnosing the kurds with the disease of genetic zionism also which means any opinion about Rojava that isn't "total kurd death" is now invalid. I like it when my quirky leftypol eceleb is also a raging anti-socialist racist 💯💯💯
>>2391916IDK much about it but it is a co-op system, no?
Rojava's economic vision and cooperative model under self-governance - IIThe Rojava Revolution, which began in Kobanê on July 19, 2012 and later spread across the entire region of North and East Syria, enters its 13th year with a distinctive economic model rooted in democratic confederalism and ecological society.
Built on local self-governance, organized through cooperatives, and aiming for harmony with nature, this economic system strives to meet the needs of the region's population and strengthen social solidarity, despite war, embargoes, and ongoing instability.
In the second part of our report, Ciwan Shikrî, Co-Chair of the Cooperatives Committee of the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria, reflects on the region’s agriculture- and livestock-based cooperative model and its contributions to the communal economy. Ferhad Dede, spokesperson for the Star Salt Cooperative, shares the story of the cooperative’s founding, its impact on the regional economy, and the experience of different ethnic groups working together.
<The role of cooperatives in the communal economy>Which products can the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria produce self-sufficiently, without dependence on external sources?Due to its vast agricultural lands, the region of North and East Syria relies primarily on farming as its core economic activity. There is an abundance of agricultural products. Agriculture and livestock remain the most fundamental resources available to us, and cooperatives built upon this foundation have proven successful. Our society is an agrarian society. Working the land collectively has always been part of the people’s nature. That is why there is a strong agricultural foundation. Seventy percent of our economy depends on agriculture. Despite many years of war in the region, agricultural production continues. This is a legacy, and as the Autonomous Administration, we have done our best to preserve it. This legacy enables the creation of a communal economy rooted in farming and livestock.
Our cooperatives were established on this basis. The vast majority of our cooperatives focus on agriculture and animal husbandry. Cooperatives must function within the limits of available resources, aiming to ensure that both the cooperative and society benefit economically. It was not like this in the past. Under the rule of the Ba'ath regime, agricultural products were taken as raw materials and used exclusively by the regime itself.
On the one hand, we strive to improve agricultural production. On the other, we work to develop facilities that can process these products industrially. Cooperatives are now being created in this field as well. Ultimately, this is done to ensure the society is not dependent on external sources. In terms of food, clothing, and other necessities, this is seen as a form of self-defense.
For example, cotton is one of the region’s primary crops. We now have factories capable of processing cotton into both inner and outer garments. We have also made progress with bulgur-processing factories. Likewise, dairy factories have been established to process products derived from livestock. We are making efforts to expand our factory infrastructure further.
This process not only demonstrates the success of cooperatives but also brings tangible benefits to the public by lowering prices. We are working to fill the gaps in essential products such as bulgur, pasta, and canned goods. Our main objective is a communal economy, an economy from which the people directly benefit. We achieve this through the cooperative system.
Encouragement is essential to develop these kinds of cooperatives. This effort cannot be carried out solely by the Autonomous Administration, the Cooperatives Committee, or the Economic Assembly. We are trying to present the working examples we have developed to the wider society and enable people to benefit from these experiences. An economy cannot grow without the participation of the people. That is why we are committed to strengthening this model.
<The contribution of cooperatives to the economy and their sectoral focus>What kind of contribution do these cooperatives make to the national economy? Which sectors do they primarily focus on, and how does the public benefit?In addition to the previous points, since the cooperatives are primarily built around agriculture and livestock, it is society as a whole, not just cooperative members, that benefits. Economic development cannot be limited to those directly involved in the cooperatives. The second essential pillar is how the wider society benefits from them. Ultimately, people are being encouraged to form and participate in cooperatives.
How do we understand this impact? By comparing the situation before and after the formation of cooperatives. For example, today a large portion of our bakeries are organized as cooperatives. These bakeries are owned by the workers within them. The products and profits generated are distributed systematically based on a defined set of regulations. For instance, a bakery cooperative may allocate 70 percent of its profits to its members.
Many of the previous problems have been resolved. There has been a visible improvement in the variety and quality of bread. In the past, the public had complaints, and cooperatives helped provide solutions. There is now a clear difference between bread produced before and after the cooperative system. Today’s bread is tastier and more hygienically produced. That is one concrete impact.
Moreover, in the livestock sector, cooperatives based on poultry farming have emerged. In the past, frozen meat had to be imported from outside the region. Over 200 poultry farms were shut down due to the war. However, under current conditions, the locally produced poultry is now more than sufficient for the region. We can say that agriculture and animal husbandry have reached a promising level of development.
<Impact on the market and pricing>In this case, can we say that prices have decreased and purchasing power has increased for the public?That is precisely our goal. Due to the ongoing embargo and siege, we are unable to export our surplus products. If this were possible, the situation would be significantly improved. Should the political issue of recognition and status be resolved, and if we gain access to external markets, it would be possible to achieve greater economic growth and renewal. Although there are still some goods that we must import, our primary solution lies in cooperative development. As we have stated, our foundation is agriculture and livestock, these are the resources we have at our disposal.
All cooperatives are interconnected. In the past, we had to import many things, including eggs. This came at a high cost, which in turn affected the prices of meat and poultry. Today, these cooperatives are structured in a way that creates interconnected circles. As a result, chicken is now widely available and can be purchased at very affordable prices. Just a few years ago, this was not the case.
<Vegetable production and seasonal challenges>What is the current situation regarding vegetable cultivation?Vegetable cultivation in the region is limited by seasonal conditions. Planting of vegetable seedlings begins around the fourth month of the year, and harvesting typically starts by mid-June. However, production is interrupted after a certain period. In autumn, weather conditions shift and yields decrease significantly. Currently, the alternative to this seasonal gap is bio-plastic greenhouse production, which has also been organized under cooperative structures. These greenhouses have been developed to fill the gap during the autumn and winter months, and we can say they have reached a reasonable level of success.
However, this type of production also brings certain challenges. For example, the seeds used are imported, and the maintenance of the crops is quite difficult. You must create a controlled atmosphere. Areas such as Rimêlan are better suited for this kind of production and are taken as reference points, though efforts are underway to expand it to other areas as well. The seasonal shortage of vegetables is being addressed through this method. Bio-plastic greenhouse vegetable production serves as a practical step to meet the region’s needs when the growing season comes to an end.
>The impact of cooperatives on the market<How does this affect the market?Our primary goal is to have a direct impact on the market. We aim to meet the society’s essential consumption needs affordably, without relying on external sources. The cooperative model we follow stands in opposition to the profit-driven principles of the capitalist system. For example, we reject practices such as increasing prices when a product becomes scarce or flooding the market to maximize profit when supply is high. What truly brings relief to the public is this very difference in approach.
>The process of establishing a cooperative<What kind of procedure is followed when a group wants to form a cooperative? How does the process work?There are two main types of cooperatives. The first type is the one supported financially by the administration. For example, in the case of an agricultural cooperative, land may be allocated by the administration, and an agreement is made based on that. Most of the profit remains with the cooperative members. Additionally, there are various support funds in place. For instance, there is a fund created specifically for agricultural machinery. Ten percent of the cooperative's income is transferred to this fund to support the development and renewal of equipment. If a cooperative wants to replace a tractor that has been in use for two or three years with a better one, this can be done through the accumulated resources in the fund. This mechanism is essential for ensuring the sustainability of the system. This is the type of cooperative financially backed by the administration.
In the second type, cooperative members use their own capital to develop a project. They only organize themselves within the cooperative system. The project is submitted in written form. Our work on this model is ongoing, but the goal is to develop cooperatives based on project proposals coming from communes.
Projects proposed by communes are evaluated through committees established under the Economic and Agricultural Council of North and East Syria. During this evaluation, the specific characteristics of each canton and commune are taken into account. The project must clearly state whether the capital will be provided by the applicants themselves or whether support from the administration is being requested. Cooperatives can be established through either method.
For instance, if three to five people want to start a cooperative, they must submit a written project to their respective canton or city council. If the proposal is approved, a formal agreement is made.
There are also temporary cooperatives, which are dissolved once their goals are achieved. In contrast, there are long-term cooperatives, such as those structured around factory-type production. The regulations clearly define the rights and legal frameworks for cooperative members, as well as the operational mechanisms of the support funds.
All of this information is shared transparently with all cooperative members. In regular meetings, members openly discuss what has been sold, how much income has been generated, any mistakes or shortcomings encountered, and other relevant issues. Annual assemblies are also held to evaluate the progress and direction of the work being done.
The transformation of social consciousness
We continue our efforts to develop this system by working on mental and ideological transformation. One of our key challenges is overcoming the influence of past failed models that still linger in the collective memory of society. People often say, “Many cooperative systems developed by welfare states failed.” In response, we are trying to help society understand the difference and potential of our own model. When practical results are visible, trust begins to grow and with trust comes greater participation.
>An example contributing to the communal economy<The story of the Star Salt CooperativeFerhad Dede, spokesperson for the Star Salt Cooperative, shares the story of its founding, its contributions to the local economy, and the experience of people from different ethnic backgrounds working together. Despite the hardships of war and embargo, the cooperative aims to meet the region’s salt production needs and stands as a tangible example of the communal economy model in action.
<The establishment and operation of the cooperative
>First, can you introduce yourself and your cooperative?I am originally from Afrin (Efrîn). This is a salt production factory, and I serve as its manager. Four months ago, the factory was under the authority of the Economic Council. However, following a series of discussions, it was transferred to the Cooperatives Committee. This change was made with a clear purpose: to help society move toward economic self-sufficiency. Previously, the factory was managed by the Autonomous Administration, and workers were employed for a set wage or through a designated fund. Once it became a cooperative, ownership of the factory transferred to the workers themselves. This is the foundation upon which we now operate.
The Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria is currently enduring the conditions of war. The embargo imposed on the region has created many challenges. In this specific case, acquiring the necessary raw materials for salt production has become difficult. Importing these materials from outside results in very high costs. Despite the war and embargo, life and work go on, and everyone is committed to advancing the development of a communal economy.
The factory is structured around different divisions of labor. Both women and men participate equally, each fulfilling their assigned roles. In total, six women and twelve men work at this factory. Work is carried out daily, and every member is considered an owner of this factory. At the end of each month, the profit is distributed fairly among all members, including management, workers, and even the guards at the gate. No one receives more than anyone else.
Decisions are not made individually but collectively, through organizational meetings. Every matter related to the factory, including planning and future initiatives, is discussed and decided upon collectively.
One of the main goals of this cooperative is to meet the region’s salt needs. The aim is to prevent the salt market from being dominated by private traders who may exploit people by selling at high prices. This is the core of our mission.
We do not claim that this operation runs perfectly, but from what we observe, we are currently able to meet approximately 65 to 70 percent of the region’s salt demand.
Our factory operates in two production lines. One line produces 10-kilogram bags intended for bakeries and similar establishments. The other line packages salt into 450-gram bags for household use. All our products are offered at low prices that the public can afford. That, ultimately, is our primary objective.
>Inclusive social participation<Can the owners of the cooperative include all communities living in the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria?The true owners of this cooperative are rooted in our project of peoples' unity and the democratic nation. At this cooperative, 15 of our Arab comrades and 3 Kurdish comrades work side by side. There are no conflicts among components. We work together with a shared spirit, and together, we all own this factory. Our organization and operations are built on this foundation.
<Do you have a message for the public to encourage the development of similar cooperatives?Our call is not only directed at the people of the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria but also to all communities across Syria. In a country at war, there is no better path to economic development than the communal and social economy. Owning your own work is better than working under someone else. For those who want to create their own jobs, the way forward is to develop cooperative projects.
As is well known, the economic perspective of the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria is based on a non-centralized system grounded in democratic confederalism, ecological society, and local self-governance. This perspective is inspired by the democratic nation paradigm of Abdullah Öcalan and offers an alternative to the exploitative, hierarchical, and anti-nature structure of the capitalist system.
One of the main features of this economic approach is that the system is organized through local councils and communes. Rather than being managed by a central authority, production and distribution are shaped according to the needs of local communities. This encourages direct participation of the people in economic decision-making processes.
Within this framework, cooperatives are key pillars of the economic structure. Through cooperatives, production is carried out in agriculture, small-scale industry, and service sectors, aiming for fair distribution of income.

>>2391925the interesting question is: was delta crescent llc under a cooperative rule?
all the idealistic yadda yadda, but were the foreign corporation with boots on the ground (Hasakah and in Deir Az Zor) forced to abide to this rule. methink not. specially when Iraqi media reported that a lot of gas and oil was passing through the Syrian-Iraq border in NE Syria with the support of U.S. military convoys.
>>2391808>ministry of defense of the newly minted isis-al qaeda regime house prolesyou're gonna have to try harder glowie
on one hand we have the new moderate head chopper government that got there thanks to nato and immediately started doing pogroms and slaughtering all minorities
on the other hand we have the zionists who after having helped completely wreck the last threatening neighboring state with the help of those islamists fucks turn on them to do the last part of their plan and set up a druze puppet buffer state while teaching them to never think about upsetting them
so theres really nothing to do but watch depressed and hope shit calm down for the sake of the civilians

I mean have you seen how he writes?
Mazloum Abdi calls for an end to attacks in Sweida, stressing that the solution lies in dialogue.
The commander of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), Mazloum Abdi, confirmed that his forces are receiving numerous appeals from residents of the southern Syrian city of Sweida, demanding safe passage for civilians and an end to the attacks they are being subjected to, amid escalating security tensions in the region.
The commander of the Syrian Democratic Forces emphasized, via his official account on the X platform, that "killing women and children and assaulting religious symbols is a crime against humanity and against the shared values that unite Syrians."
Abdi added, "These aggressive actions must stop immediately, and those responsible must be held accountable," stressing that "after 14 years of war, it is time to stop the bloodshed."
He called for the need to move beyond the logic of revenge and division, because "Syria will not rise through revenge, but through dialogue and reason."
Abdi also described the Druze issue in Sweida as a "national issue" that must be addressed within the framework of a constitutional solution and dialogue among all Syrians, ensuring justice and stability.
Abdi's statements come at a time when southern Syria is witnessing increasing unrest and clashes between armed groups in some areas of Sweida, amid local and international calls to protect civilians and prioritize political solutions over military confrontations.

• #Syria is not a testing ground for foreign conspiracies and the ambitions of others.
• Building a new Syria requires us to focus on our country.
• Since the fall of the regime, Israel has been seeking to dismantle Syria.
• I tell the Druze citizens that protecting you is our priority.
This was a
3am speech, BTW.
>>2392145lel, this dude enabled all this.
- his "revolution" and deviously using the gaza ceasefire to overthrow assad is what allowed israel to destroy syria's defenses, seize more of its land and tear them apart,
- this made syira a testing ground for israel, usa and turkey.
- you can't focus on your country when it's being invaded and torn apart from all sides
- no shit, jolani enabled that
- after allowing sectarian massacres
this is all his fucking fault and the fault of everyone who supported the regime change campaign against assad.
but who cares, their sectarian brainworms will keep whispering to them:
>IrAn and HeZboLLo are The ReAL eNemiEs! >>2392132lol
bitch has probably lived in syria for a decade and can't speak arabic
>>2392182Fuuucking
whaaat
>>2392145>This was a 3am speech, BTW.←>>2392182>"Elected" lolListened to Joshua Landis on Radio War Nerd awhile back describe Sunnis (70% of the population) across the spectrum from Muslim Brotherhood types to pro-democracy activists as super excited about him. There were just waves of people who Assad repressed or kicked out which turned into a monster tsunami of oppositionists, many who went abroad and have now come back.
But the other 30 percent, the minorities, are fearful and don't want to give up their guns, and see the regime as very Sunni supremacist. The preamble of the new constitution says there will be a division of powers but all the deputies in parliaments are appointed either directly or indirectly by Sharaa. The judiciary is appointed directly by the president. He's the head of the military. You go down the line, there's no separation of powers. The five principle cabinet members are all Sunni men who are very close to him. He's building a regime that is not much different from the Assad regime except that now the majority rules and the minorities are terrified.
Life feels much freer for that Sunni majority than under Assad. But his guess was that it's not going to last for long.
>>2392334>Seems a lot like what happened in Iraq with Saddam but with the roles reversed between Sunnis and non-Sunnis.He made that direct analogy.
>>2392350>these HTS niqqas are getting absolutely raped by Druze militias. How the fuck did they steamroll SAA so easily??Druze are built a bit differently. The Israelis were having a problem as around 1,000 Israeli Druze breached the border in the Golan (pushing past the IDF which was powerless to stop them) and heading into Syria to take care of business themselves, because their cousins and uncles and grandparents were texting them on WhatsApp saying "they're outside the house" and then not hearing from them again. At least some of their relatives are dead and their women raped. These people speak Arabic as their native language and are indigenous to the region, and it's not like they're going to ask the IDF for permission to go in.
Fundamentally it's a problem of motivation and the "social contact." People will fight for their tribe and religion more than their state. The Iraqi military nutted up and fought ISIS after they partially sectarianized (this is probably a generalization / oversimplification and is probably wrong in some way because I'm not from there and don't speak Arabic) but it's a much more Shia army.
The Assad regime would've collapsed a lot sooner if it weren't for Russia and Iran backing him up. Russia sent in advisors and air support. Then you have Shia militia from Iraq and wherever and helped by Iran who went there to fight the Sunnis. Sharaa and HTS caught Assad at a particularly weak point as the Russians were busy in Ukraine and had reduced support, and the militias had gone home, while the SAA was transitioning from this conscript-heavy force to a contract-soldier model (similar to Russia with better pay and motivation), and they had demobilized a lot of troops or shifted them into the reserves before the new contract model had fully kicked in.
Does anyone have accurate info regarding the STG's current heavy equipment stockpile? We know 2 self-propelled rocket artillery were destroyed by Israel, and an unknown high number of tanks including T-62s
>>2392346 and T-72s
>>2390699 were taken out in the field. But Israel also performed airstrikes on equipment in storage in Daraa and other places.
Seems like they're fucked if they don't get shit from the Turks.
>>2392505>as opposed to what, listening to those advancing Israeli interests?Have you considered not being a simp?
There is no need for you to believe any rando because they posted on reddit or twitter. You'll find out for certain in time anyways
>>2392530>All I’m saying is that the Druze are murderous psychopaths who are an arm of the Israeli government as a proxy.That's true of the STG as well just replace Israel with Turkey and the US.
>The Druze are there to destroy southern Syria and ethnically cleanse the south for resettlement by Zionist settlers.And the STG is there to turn Syria into a buffet for Western corporations.
>The only correct “side” to take here is for a revolutionary Syrian working class army to be formed to disarm Druze and all and any factions not loyal to the Syrian working class revolutionaries.That would include the STG.
It's a piss vs shit war.
>>2392546I don't think they care either way. Whether Syria is Balkanized or united under a pro-Western
government makes no difference to them.
>>2392552>during the Yom Kippur war Israel was almost defeated Yeah by the Egyptians lmao. The Syrians never made it past Golan.
>>2392461>ISIS, Al Quesa, FSA, and HTS all bled into one another and had blurry/porous boundaries between themThis is an important thing that many people don't know and was why many people who knew their shit didn't trust any Islamist group no matter how "moderate" they were supposed to be.
Still, there are some groups that were very selective and toed some sort of party-line instead of inclusive vibes-based Jihadism, such as Hurras al-Din who had links to Al-Qaeda Central and followed their orders (this is why the US drone-striked lots of them after the fall of Assad, with HTS help/intel).
>>2392668>NATO cares that the oil and the rest of the trade keeps happening on their terms this is self contradictory. Israel is proving themselves to *the* destabilizing force in the region. how exactly does the flow of oil and money flow into western NATO pockets when Israel is starting another civil war NATO just wrapped up and won? doesn't make any sense.
>Those are slogans for the vootersthese are slogans for the countries NATO wants to have a color revolution in. Israel is fucking up democracies image everywhere. the USA is telling them they are pushing nations into the arms of China
>>2392763 (samefag)
More vids of convoys and gatherings vowing to go to Suwayda.
Unless the Syrian government decides to yolo a third time, these guys won't have drones, tanks, APCs or some sort of command organisation so they're most likely gonna lose. Especially if Israel decides to do airstrikes against them.
>>2392500>The Druze are massacring civilians by the anon who is always posting images of these things happening. Yeah probably. You can expect this sort of thing.
>Hamas never beheaded children or executed civiliansThey killed some civilians. They shot some when they saw them, set people's houses on fire and gunned them down as they ran out, and tied people hands behind their backs with zip ties and then blew their brains out. Normal stuff.
>>2392521>As soon as it got into power HTS began kissing Israel's ass and persecuting Palestinians and resistance factions operating in Syria. My question is whether HTS is going after Palestinian factions generally or is letting Hamas and Fatah operate while outlawing Palestinian factions that were controlled by Assad's glowies like the PFLP-GC.
>>2392611>account deleted lol>>2392631>the druze got himBut how they did that… that's the mystery of the Druze.
More airstrikes against the Bedouins.
Yeah, they're pretty fucked as I said in
>>2392775>>2393214If it's genuinely just disorganised rag-tag Bedouins and sectarian Sunnis and it's not the STG's army using a cover, then I don't think that it's inevitable they'd lose.
Again, by that I mean there are no drones, tanks or APCs or whatnot used against the Druze. If they couldn't do it with those things, then it'd be even harder without them.
Still, people say they number more than the STG's army and remember there are still convoys on their way there. They might win just by sheer manpower though with heavy casualties (I mean the Druze would also suffer high casualties and potential ethnic cleansing if they lose so w/e).
>>2392959The carbon print of a bomb is bigger than an army of tribals isn't it?
The ecological case died on the vine
>>2393357 (samefag)
It's potentially happening. An official entering of the STG into the province again would probably cause Israeli retaliation.
>>2393640 (samefag)
Update: denied by the STG.
>>2393701I know if by that you mean statistically threatening AA.
The STG did bring some AA guns during their offensives on Suwayda which while shit was at least SOMETHING. The tribals meanwhile have completely zero AA.

Autonomous Administration to send emergency humanitarian aid to Suwayda
The Council of Social Affairs and Workers of Northern and Eastern Syria said that emergency humanitarian aid will be sent to people in the region of Suwayda in Syria, where the Druze community is predominant, due to attacks by the Syrian Interim Government forces and affiliated armed groups, which have left the population in a difficult situation.
The Council noted that recent developments have placed the population in the midst of a deep humanitarian crisis, with living conditions and public services deteriorating rapidly.
The statement said: "We have sent emergency humanitarian aid to our people in the Suwayda province. Our people are going through an extremely difficult humanitarian situation due to recent events and the attacks targeting their region. As a result, living and service conditions have further deteriorated."
The Council emphasized that aid efforts would continue and also made a call to the international community and aid organizations: "At the same time, we call on all international parties, philanthropists, and humanitarian aid organizations to stand with our people and to increase their efforts and support for the people of Suwayda."
Tribes affiliated with Damascus ready to attack Suwayda
Thousands of armed groups from 41 Arab tribes loyal to the Damascus government are reportedly moving to launch an attack on the Suwayda region, inhabited by the Druze community.
In videos circulating on social media, though not yet verified, a group can be seen chanting religious slogans (takbir) and heading toward the area on motorcycles, a tactic commonly used by ISIS militants.
Following three days of bloody clashes in which more than 500 people lost their lives, a ceasefire was declared between Syrian government forces and Druze militias. After the agreement, government forces largely withdrew from the area.
After the withdrawal, Druze leaders and religious figures were assigned to take over internal security duties and ensure local security in Suwayda.
Following the ceasefire, local-scale retaliatory attacks, revenge operations, and migration movements began among both Bedouin and Druze groups.
Your daily reminder that everyone who supported the Syria regime change op were supporting Israel and imperialism.https://x.com/ibrahimtmajed/status/1945779939090821617David’s Corridor: The Hidden Axis Behind Israel’s Expansion into Syria and Iraq
A new geopolitical corridor is quietly forming in the shadows of the Levant, connecting the occupied Golan Heights to southeastern Syria and extending toward the Iraqi border.
Known as David’s Corridor, this route is not merely a military passage it is a strategic foundation of a much larger regional agenda.
For Israel, expanding into Syria through this corridor is not a defensive maneuver; it is a calculated step toward redrawing the Middle East.
A Foothold in the Greater Israel Project
David’s Corridor represents the installation of a permanent Israeli foothold in the heart of the Arab world.
It serves as a launchpad for the Greater Israel project, an expansionist doctrine that envisions the fragmentation of neighboring states into smaller, divided, and weakened entities.
Through control of this corridor, Israel is laying the groundwork for long-term influence over the region’s geography and political future.
Southern Syria, with its fractured sovereignty and foreign military presence, offers the perfect environment for this.
Israel’s increasing activity there from is not about repelling threats, or defending the druze minorities but about setting the regional chessboard in its favor.
Iraq: The Next Target
The expansion into Syria is not an end in itself. The true strategic goal lies east in Iraq.
Specifically, Israel seeks to penetrate the Shiite religious and political strongholds of Najaf and Karbala,which serve as central hubs of resistance to Israeli and Western influence in iraq.
Destabilizing these centers could shift the balance of power in Iraq, and by extension, the broader resistance axis.
To do this, Israel relies on proxy forces, most notably ISIS remnants operating from the U.S.-controlled Tanf base. These groups, though ideologically different, serve one purpose: to ignite sectarian conflict and fracture Iraqi unity.
With the corridor nearing the strategic tri-border area between Jordan, Iraq, and Syria, Israel will have the ability to funnel operatives, arms, and chaos across the Iraqi border with relative ease.
Jordan’s role whether passive or complicit provides Israel with a secure southern buffer, ensuring that its back remains protected while it destabilizes Iraq.
From Iraq to Iran: Intelligence and Air Power
Beyond the immediate impact on Syria and Iraq, David’s Corridor offers a critical advantage against Iran.
Once operational, the corridor facilitates:
- Air route access for intelligence and potential military strikes deeper into Iranian territory.
- On-the-ground intelligence collection, with networks spreading from Syria into Iraq and possibly western Iran.
- A platform to monitor and disrupt the resistance arc that runs from Tehran through Baghdad and Damascus to Beirut.
In short, controlling this corridor gives Israel unprecedented reach into enemy territory without directly launching a war.
David’s Corridor is not just a tactical maneuver; it is a quiet but transformative step in a long-term regional agenda.
By expanding into Syria and eyeing Iraq, Israel is seeking to rewrite the balance of power in the Middle East.
With its proxies in place, its intelligence capabilities growing, and its corridor expanding, Israel is no longer just defending its borders it is redefining them.

god is great, I get it, can you stop repeating it now ffs
>>2393847There's definitely army members independently fighting there, but the army itself isn't participating. Otherwise we'd see more of their equipment including most importantly drones.
The car was probably brought over by an army member, though they'd technically be unauthorised to do that, hence why I said "stole".
>>2393851 (samefag)
The very first airstrike that Israel performed against the tribals in the night destroyed a rocket artillery system, which was definitely brought over by army members.
Still, the amount of heavy and even medium equipment during this assault was extremely small which again implies that the army itself isn't involved but that a couple of its soldiers independently participated and some "borrowed" the army's equipment behind their superiors' backs (who themselves might have turned a blind eye and allowed to happen).

next time you can find mongols and Iroquois who the fuck knows
>>2393890>>2393899There are no organised groups among those fighting the Druze right now. It's just a mess of different people who went to fight them on their own initiative and I use "tribals" because that's what majority of them are.
>I haven’t visited this thread for a day and now there’s a new group called tribals.See
>>2392763 >>2393890no, not new, many of these countries thrive through heterogenous ethnic groups, with their own religion, ways of talk, clothes, etc. thus comes the term tribes.
they are usually calm with other tribes, then comes in nato and this is the result.
>>2393974I think it depends. You gotta ask an Arab. Like in cities it matters less to just being a way to trace muh ancestors, but in rural areas / the desert (Bedouins) / southern Syria it's more tribal. Certain nations like Saudi Arabia and the UAE were cobbled together out of tribal confederations.
Back when Assad was going, there was fighting between the SDF and the Al-Aqidat tribe which lives in Deir ez-Zor. They have at least three branches each comprised of various clans. That one Assadfag on here was really mad at the Kurds because this tribe had been on Assad's side, but it was more complicated because it wasn't, like, the Syrian army but this specific tribe with a sheikh that they had beefed with on and off.

For the Druze, Alawites, Kurds, Armenians, moderate Sunnis, Yazidis, Circassians, and Arameans. This is how Syrians are killed simply because they are not Salafis, ideologues, and jihadists following the doctrine of al-Julani, al-Baghdadi, and al-Zawahiri.

>>2392668https://abrahamshield.org/en/plan >>2394013>An argument that many pro-STG people online make as a justification for attacking Suwayda in the first place is that it was for centralisation and making sure only the central state holds the monopoly of violence.the problem with that is that it contradicts al-hts joolani speeches about modernizing Syria,
all under the same umbrella garbage speech. they want people to be amnesic to the fact that joolani offered to the world a Syria for all people, that there was room for everyone.
the big winner? zionists. they are advancing towards Damascus, controlling more territory.

Syrian presidency says deploying troops to ‘de-escalate clashes’
Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa’s office says it is working to deploy forces to resolve days of sectarian violence in southern Syria “through political and security measures aimed at restoring stability and preventing the return of chaos as quickly as possible”.
In a statement, the presidency reiterated a pledge to uphold the rule of law, stressing that Syria “is a state for all its sons and daughters, regardless of their backgrounds or affiliations” amid days of sectarian violence.
“Attacks on families, terrorizing children, and violating the sanctity and dignity of people in their homes are categorically rejected and condemned under all ethical, legal, and humanitarian standards. No justification or excuse can be accepted for such actions,” it said.
“There is no place for armed groups or militias beyond the reach of the state. National responsibility requires that everyone be united under the roof of the homeland, with one reference point — the rule of law.”
Israel has repeatedly threatened attacks on Syria’s interim government should it redeploy forces south of Damascus.
Humanitarian situation in Syria’s Suwayda ‘rapidly deteriorating’: Red Cross
The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) has warned that violence in the southern Syrian city has caused “dire shortages of food, clean water, electricity and medical care”.
“People are running out of everything. Hospitals are increasingly struggling to treat the wounded and the sick, and families are unable to bury their loved ones in dignity,” Stephan Sakalian, the head of ICRC’s delegation in Syria, said in a statement.
“After sleepless nights gripped by fear, anxiety and grief, people are yearning for the end of violence to restart moving freely, attend their most basic needs and check on loved ones.”
The ICRC called on all parties to protect residents and urged the “immediate, safe and unhindered” humanitarian access.
“Every hour lost means more suffering for families and patients waiting for critical aid. They cannot wait any longer. For them and for us – every minute counts,” Sakalian said.
