Priorities of outside powers in @syria

'It is perplexing that, despite the apparent “confidence” in Jolani – a figure who was once branded “the world’s most wanted terrorist” – as a moderate revolutionary leader, there is scant recognition of the democratic model Rojava has offered since its establishment.'

Siria, ladri e curiosi tra i lussi di Assad: dentro il «palazzo proibito» del regime

La reggia voluta dal padre di Bashir si chiamava «del Popolo», ma non poteva entrarci nessuno

Translated:
Syria, thieves and curious people among the luxuries of Assad: inside the "forbidden palace" of the regime.

The palace desired by Bashir's father was called "of the People," but no one could enter it.

Question : Pourquoi ces affrontements entre les Turcs et les Kurdes ?
"Ce sont des affrontements entre : d'un côté, des milices qui sont dominées par le PKK [;] de l'autre côté, des milices qui sont sous le contrôle de la Turquie."
"Mandij est tombée et maintenant c'est la ville de Kobané, sur la frontière avec la Turquie, qui est visée et qui risque de tomber dans les prochains jours."

France Culture · Les Kurdes de Syrie, victimes collatérales de la chute du régime d’Assad ?La chute du régime de Bachar al-Assad n’a pas mis fin aux combats en Syrie. Depuis dimanche, des groupes armés soutenus par la Turquie affrontent les forces kurdes et leurs alliés locaux dans le nord du pays, notamment autour de Manbij.

"Syria's rapid collapse – driven by internal decay, external aggression, and shifting alliances – has plunged it into uncertainty, leaving the nation's fate entangled in regional and global power struggles that only its people can resolve."

Per il governo di transizione in #Siria #Jolani sceglie Muhammad #Bashir, e non l'esiliato ex premier siriano Riad #Hijab o l'attuale primo ministro Muhammad #Jalali.

Lo riferisce la tv al Jazira.

Muhammad Bashir da anni amministra nel nord-ovest siriano le aree sotto controllo di Hayat Tahrir ash Sham (#Hts), guidata da Abu Muhammad Jolani (Ahmad Sharaa). La scelta di Muhammad Bashir sarebbe stata imposta, afferma la tv, dallo stesso Jolani.

Ansa

The two-part episode "Past Tense", which aired in the third season of #StarTrek: #DeepSpaceNine. In this episode, #Sisko, #Bashir, and #Dax are accidentally transported to #SanFrancisco in the year #2024, where they find a #dystopian #society where the #poor and #homeless are #segregated in walled-off #ghettos called #SanctuaryDistricts. Sisko and Bashir get trapped in one of these districts, while Dax is rescued by a wealthy businessman. Sisko realizes that they have arrived just before the Bell Riots, a violent uprising that will change the course of history and lead to social reforms. However, he also learns that the man who was supposed to lead the riots, Gabriel Bell, has been killed, and he decides to take his place to preserve the timeline.

This episode is widely regarded as one of the best and most relevant episodes of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, as it explores themes such as
#IncomeInequality, #homelessness, #SocialJustice, and #HumanRights. The episode also draws parallels between the 2020s and the 1990s, when it was produced, as well as the present day. The episode depicts a world where #technology has advanced but society has regressed, where people are divided by #class and #race, and where #violence and #oppression are rampant. The episode also shows how people can make a difference by #StandingUp for their #rights and #dignity, and how #history can be shaped by ordinary people.

Hachyderm.ioMichelle Catherine Marcó (@digichelle@hachyderm.io)As I look at the world around me, I keep asking myself, “How fucked do we have to be before we start turning things around?” Then I think about #StarTrek. It’s often thought of as a utopian setting, more or less, which is true. But us #Trekkies, who are steeped in the lore, know that there’s a fair bit of dystopia in the Trek timeline. And that dystopia hits around… right now, actually. And if you watched a particular two-parter in #DS9, well… yeaaaaaaaah.
