Khalaf Al Habtoor’s refusal to invest in Syria over forced partnerships raises a serious question: is the interim government repeating Assad-era practices, where investors needed politically connected partners like Rami Makhlouf?

صار علينا واجب كمشرقيين أمريكيين نوقف مع الأردن ونساعد مساعيه بالمنطقة. الأردن عم يحارب على خط النار ضد المتطرفين الانتحاريين اللي بدهم يحولوه لغزة جديدة.

الأردن مش بلد نفط ولا مليارات، الأردن بلد ديبلوماسية وعقل وحكمة، وعلينا نحمي هالدور ونقويه مش نضعفه

Turkey and Qatar charge Israel with “ethnic cleansing” in Gaza — while perpetrating it in Syrian Kurdistan.

These Gazan teachers fight Hamas brainwashing with a message of peace. Given the space to operate freely, they can reeducate a generation.

We’ve connected anti-Hamas Gazans to lawmakers in the U.S., Canada, and Europe. Testifying to Hamas-UNRWA collusion, Gazans asked gov’ts to reduce UNRWA funding and back pilot projects for non-Hamas aid distribution and self-rule. https://t.co/d047qz9nUt @rmohamed_yyc

Our colleague @Ahedalhendi tells @reglash the real reason Arab states won't help Gazan evacuees is their "fear aiding Gazans could inadvertently benefit Hamas ... which wants to overthrow Arab states and form a revolutionary Islamic republic under the banner of Sunni jihadism."

[Ahed Al Hendi @Ahedalhendi]

We should condemn the brutal actions of Hamas and other Islamist organizations, regardless of our political views. We should also work to promote understanding and tolerance between people of all faiths and backgrounds.

[Ahed Al Hendi @Ahedalhendi]

Many people in the west, particularly on the left, defend the brutal actions of Hamas and other Islamist organizations by arguing that they are in response to centuries of exploitation by white people and imperialism.

[Ahed Al Hendi @Ahedalhendi]

Islamic countries have never been colonized,and the central tenet of all Islamist groups' philosophies is the establishment of Sharia and the restoration of the imperial Islamic state.

[Ahed Al Hendi @Ahedalhendi]

This is why it is not surprising to see these people applauding Hamas' heinous and violent acts. They are envious of Israel because they cannot accept that the Jews, whom they have traditionally demonized, have achieved such remarkable success

[Ahed Al Hendi @Ahedalhendi]

The failure of Islamists and Arab nationalists to achieve any significant victories since the fall of the Ottoman Empire is striking. They have lost every major conflict they have fought, and have been unable to establish a single successful state.

[Ahed Al Hendi @Ahedalhendi]

The Arab nations that surround Israel and were founded on the principle of its destruction have high levels of illiteracy, corruption, and civil conflict. Israel, on the other hand, has built the only democracy in the ME, with significant achievements in science, and technology

[Ahed Al Hendi @Ahedalhendi]

When ISIS beheaded a citizen of the United States, an international collation was created to secure the Caliphate's destruction. To liberate Gaza from the Hamas Caliphate and to take revenge on those who were slaughtered in Israel, the world should perform similar actions.

[Ahed Al Hendi @Ahedalhendi]

Deir Ezor's tribes are not a monolithic entity. They're a web of intricate relationships, where allegiance can shift, and conflicts can run deep. Appreciating this complexity is vital in navigating the region's socio-political landscape.

[Ahed Al Hendi @Ahedalhendi]

The tribes that make up the #DeirEzZor region of Syria are wrongly seen as forming a single, cohesive entity. But a deeper look reveals a complicated tapestry of tribal relationships that defies easy classification.

As Shaikhs work with locals to resolve disagreements and solve problems, many Shaikhs lose the majority of their power when they leave the area. Shaikhs in Turkey cannot therefore claim to be influential.
