    Hello , I am currently looking into demonstrations or strikes or other forms of civilian shows of discontent in Afrin post-Turkish occupation aimed at specific groups. If you know of any, could you please try to share the information and sources with me? Thanks.

    Turkey - after conducting the largest scale demographic change in Syria with the Afrin assault and occupation - accuses the SDF (being Syria's most multi-ethnic force with a rapidly rising Arab majority) of demographic change.

    MORE — Turkey will not turn a blind eye to the PKK/YPG changing the demographic structure of the region by oppressing people and forcing them to migrate; Turkey's counterrorism operations in Iraq against these elements will continue, statement says

    I was willing to give them the benefit of a doubt, but seeing thia obviously forced confession seems to heavily lean towards Ukraine's version of events. If this was made for domestic consumption, they should have avoided subtitling it into English.

    Re-opening of Syria's border w/Jordan in Oct. - a long awaited move to reinvigorate economic ties - is driving severe inflation in food and fuel prices. Jordanians are crossing to shop in Daraa and returning w/cars full of cheap goods daily.

    Not to jump into this cesspool of a conversation, but how is it helpful to confuse Kurdish tribes before Kurdish nationalism even existed as equal to Kurdish nationalism? Does that mean the actions of Arab tribes in the 1800s are a good way to judge Pan-Arabism somehow?

    Note: if Maliki and other anti-independists visits to the KRI don't merit you making comments about "how Arabs are", perhaps be more careful about making comments the other way.

    As much as I dislike Masoud Barzani and sincerely wish he would retire from public life, it has been a spectacle to see supposedly Pro-Iraqi Arab accounts flaunt their racism at his recent visit to Baghdad.
