تهجير البدو... جريمة تتكرر ما نشهده اليوم من تهجير منظم لأبناء العشائر البدوية الأصلاء من جبل العرب، يعيد إلى الأذهان جريمة تهجير أهالي الجولان المحتل عام 1967، حين وقف العالم صامتًا أمام تلك الجريمة البشعة. وها هو اليوم يقف متخاذلًا، عاجزًا عن إنصاف أبناء الأرض الذين يتعرضون…

Top Druze leader issues an important statement on Sweida. He says his guesthouse was burned & his father’s grave desecrated by Israel-backed Sheikh Hikmat Hajri thugs for rejecting violence & foreign agendas. Accuses them of lies, disinfo, betrayal & pushing sectarian deals.

Thousands of Sunni Bedouin families are being forcibly displaced from Suwayda. This is demographic change. This is a war crime. Why is no one talking about it?
لم أسمع أوقح وأبشع من تبرير بعض الطائفيين من السويداء لجريمة تهجير المدنيين من عشائر السويداء بأن هذه الجريمة تمت وفق عرف "الجلوة" العشائري.. علماً أن هذا العرف يطبق على عائلة القاتل فقط لا على فئة اجتماعية كاملة؛ فضلا عن عدم مشروعيته الأخلاقية والقانونية.. خاصة عندما يتذرع به…
Testimonies of Bedouin families, who just been released from captivity, are just horrific. They were subjected to starvation, humiliation, and beatings. Some speak of executions carried out by Druze armed groups, and even the killing of children.
Timeline is flooded with pictures of babies and children who died of starvation in Gaza and there are still people who claim it is a farce. And Israelis who totally ignore the hunger in Gaza talk about Suwayda and say “humanity lost its common values…” I can’t anymore
Some are sharing news that a Syrian young man has been killed today in this fistfight in Düsseldorf. These news are false. The young man is being treated right now in hospital and still alive.
In Düsseldorf, Germany, Syrians protested in solidarity with Suwayda, while another protest in support of the government took place nearby. Both ended in a fistfight and the exchange of insults. Syria today is more divided then ever!
The rhetoric used here is parallel to Assad regime rhetoric. Kinda suspicious. Just sayin.
Druze Suwayda Military Council: "We hear of international meetings and discussions calling for an end to the attacks, yet we see no tangible impact of these resolutions on the ground—only the continued shedding of our people’s blood without deterrence."
