🇨🇭 A #Druze State? Swiss Newspaper Discusses New Regional Scenarios.
A major Swiss newspaper has published an analysis discussing growing international debate over Sweida’s future, the possibility of a corridor linking southern Syria to Israel, and the broader regional implications following the 2025 massacres. While the article relies on political analysis rather than confirmed plans, it reflects how these questions are increasingly being discussed in diplomatic and media circles.

The Druze State "Jabal al-Druze" (1921-1936)
Capital: As-Suwayda
Currency: Lebanese-Syrian Pound
National Anthem: La Marseillaise
Languages: Arabic & French
Jabal al-Druze was home to about 50,000 Druze.
Druze made 85% of the population. 14% were Christians
Creation:
On May 1, 1921, under the French Mandate for Syria, a separate autonomous state called the State of Jabal Druze was formed in the mountainous region of southern Syria
The Great Syrian Revolt (1925):
Sultan Pasha al-Atrash was a prominent Druze leader who commanded the Great Syrian Revolt against the French.
Sultan Pasha al-Atrash opposed the creation of the Druze State.
He advocated for a unified Syria.
Franco-Syrian Treaty of 1936
Jabal Druze State officially ceased to exist in 1936.
After annexation, the central Damascus government appointed Nasib al-Bakri as governor of Jabal al-Druze. This decision deeply alienated the local Druze population
Yigal Allon Plan:
Yigal Allon proposed the creation of an independent Druze state in the aftermath of the 1967 Six-Day War.
This included the The Golan Heights & the mountainous region in southern Syria, centered around the city of As-Suwayda.
There are many lessons we learned from the discourse this meme generated. But perhaps one of the most overlooked ones is that Leftists believe all men are evil until they actually/allegedly commit an evil act, at which point they'll leap to the man's defense.
@ChichaMorrada@matthew_petti Israeli soldiers weren't shooting rockets and drones at gaza for no reason last time i checked they had been free since 2005
@Antiredditor@CoreyWriting yeah sure, isreal just woke up one day and decided to kill Palestinians for no reason
if they actually wanted a genocide, the population of Gaza wouldn't be increasing, trust me
@DraidenAtheist@YesternightPost@matthew_petti They can actually, they declared war in accordance with international law against Hezbollah in coordination with the Lebanese state
Hezbollah can't just bomb Israel because of their conflict with a different entity
@elderofziyon@rabbijilljacobs@TimesofIsrael pretty sure israel is far more diverse than american when it comes to jewish backgrounds but i digress
either way they can have their march another day it's not that complicated but these people only care about jewish community and Judaism to override zionism not independently
>this isn't nationalism
>nationalism is bad, patriotism is good
>how problematic is patriotism
coming soon ...
>why the nation state should be dismantled
people are being subverted in plain day light
The beauty of America is we protect the free speech rights of people who write articles like this.
However, it doesn’t stop us from calling them idiots though.
