🚨 The Julani regime executed 6 Syrian civilians on Monday, the first day of Eid, in Banyas. The Takfiri militants continue the sectarian motivated spree of killing in the East Mediterranean coastal cities.

[Kevork Almassian @KevorkAlmassian]

The Aleppo Citadel is one of the oldest and most historically significant fortresses in the world, with origins dating back to the 3rd millennium BCE. Over the centuries, it served as a military stronghold, a cultural hub, and a symbol of power for various empires, including the Hittites, Arameans, Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Ayyubids, and Ottomans. Its strategic location in the heart of Aleppo made it a key center of trade and governance.

The citadel’s architecture reflects layers of history, blending Islamic, Byzantine, and Crusader influences.

Leaving such a monument in the hands of Takfiri extremists—who follow an extremist ideology that considers pre-Islamic historical sites as idolatrous and often destroys them—poses a grave threat to its survival.

Groups like ISIS and Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) have a record of demolishing ancient heritage, as seen in the destruction of Palmyra and other archaeological sites. The loss of the Aleppo Citadel would not only erase a priceless piece of human history but also sever a vital link to Syria’s diverse cultural past.

Protecting it is essential to preserving global heritage and countering extremist attempts to erase history.

If you watch the footage of the mass killings in the coastal cities of Syria, you come to realize that the so-called Mujahedeen of Usama bin Laden were progressive and light compared to the "rebel army" of Abu Mohammad al-Julani.

[Syrian Girl @Partisangirl]

This is a Turko-mongol invasion of Syria.

Chechen, Turkmen, Uighur and Turkestani children of foreign fighters to neck cutting symbol.

They all have to back just like Israelis.

🚨Turkey is not our friend.

▪️There are mass protests in Turkey as we speak.

▪️Turkey just slaughtered innocent Kurdish civilians in Syria, including 7 children.

▪️Turkey supports radical Islamic terrorists across the region.

▪️Turkey sponsors Hamas, a U.S. designated terrorist organization.

▪️Turkey threatens our ally Israel.

▪️Turkey backs jihadists to kill Christians in Syria.

▪️Turkey has occupied Cyprus since 1974.

▪️Turkey threatens our NATO ally Greece.

▪️Turkey purchased Russian missiles incompatible with NATO defense systems.

▪️Turkey uses American technology and weapons to kill civilians in the Middle East.

▪️Turkey uses the West to advance its neo-Ottoman expansionist agenda.

Let’s have a honest conversation about Turkey, @SteveWitkoff, I’m happy to provide more information on this. We have to see Turkey for what it is and not what we wish it to be.

🟥 Turkey poses a direct threat to U.S. national security interests.

[Diliman Abdulkader @D_abdulkader]

▪️Jolani was radicalized by the Palestinian second intifada.

▪️Jolani supported the 9/11 attacks.

▪️Jolani fought with al Qaeda in Iraq against our soldiers.

▪️Jolani was held in prison in Iraq by U.S. for 5 years.

▪️Jolani founded and led al Nusra, U.S. designated terrorist organization with Baghdadi, the leader of ISIS in 2012 which we took out during Trump 1.0.

▪️Jolani made al Nusra the official Syrian branch of al Qaeda, a U.S. designated terrorist organization.

▪️Jolani merged Nusra into a larger Islamist organization called Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), a U.S. designated terrorist organization.

▪️Jolani led the world’s largest al Qaeda hub in Idlib province in Syria.

▪️Jolani now ruling Damascus just slaughtered Christians and Alewites.

Jolani in Syria is not a different guy, @SteveWitkoff, once a terrorist, always a terrorist.

[Karim Franceschi @karimfranceschi]

"Indications are that Jolani is a different person than he once was, and people do change. I'm not the person I knew 30 years ago, so maybe Jolani and Syria is a different guy."
— Steve Witkoff, U.S. Special Envoy to the Middle East.

Let’s break down who he’s casually whitewashing:

-> Abu Mohammad al-Jolani spent most of his adult life in Al-Qaeda.

-> Until 2013, he was one of the leaders of ISIS.

-> As head of Jabhat al-Nusra and now HTS, he has led campaigns of terror, torture, ethnic cleansing, and systematic repression.

He only began his "moderation" PR campaign in 2018, after watching ISIS implode — a move driven by tactics, not transformation.

But the most horrifying part?
Just three weeks ago, Jolani's forces carried out the Syrian Coastline Massacre — a massacre targeting Alawite and Christian civilians.

-> Over 1,500 civilians, including women and children, were executed within a week (per SOHR).

-> Footage of civilian executions was widely circulated — a deliberate act of psychological warfare.

->Homes were burned to the ground.

->The area has since been sealed off from foreign press as Jolani scrambles to erase evidence of mass genocide.

And amid all this, Witkoff decides to suggest Jolani has changed — right before lavishing praise on Qatar, long accused of financing factions linked to Jolani in the past?

This isn't diplomacy.
This is whitewashing war crimes, legitimizing a mass murderer, and flirting with impunity.

Steve Witkoff must be investigated. Now.

She knows nothing about the realities of the Middle East. Nothing about Syria. Nothing about Islam. Nothing about anything. But she is an empathetic white progressive globalist. She knows that in Unicornia, her words are cherished. She will shortly have martinis with @harari_yuval and they will congratulate one another on being such enlightened beings. The most dangerous force in nature is a parasitized mind. It is the cause of all man-made disasters including ones that pose an existential threat to our way of life. @vonderleyen is suicidally empathetic. I might add her in my forthcoming book.

[Lindsey Snell @LindseySnell]

Saudi news says Turkish-backed SNA (Amshat, Sultan Murad, Hamza) are responsible for the massacres of Alawites on the coast. This is false; there's ample evidence HTS participated.

SNA won't exist much longer, but the human rights violations won't end with their demise.

[Lindsey Snell @LindseySnell]

Over a thousand Alawite civilians slaughtered on Syria's coast by HTS and SNA militants. The Syrian gov denies involvement, the media downplays the violence, and some on social media openly celebrate.

A Syrian “comedian” shared a skit mocking the grieving Alawite mothers in Syria after the massacre that killed around 4000 Alawites and Christians by Joulani’s regime. Now where did I see this before?

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Prophetic

[Kevork Almassian @KevorkAlmassian]

Syria was a safe and civilized place where millions of people used to visit us for tourism. Now it's a hell on earth thanks to the so-called civilized world who stood on the side of al-Qaida.

Genocide in Syria

[Richard Medhurst @richimedhurst]

CIA-backed revolution in 2011 was started over much less.

[Kevork Almassian @KevorkAlmassian]

Do not listen to the talking heads on X philosophizing about Syria and selling false hope. These people are detached from reality. Syrians in coastal cities need urgent protection from the ongoing genocide.
