By the way, the individual in the picture full name: (محمد صبحي الناشف) has admitted that it’s him posing next to the severed heads in Raqqa, and yes, those in the background are ISIS flags, and he’s still insisting that he was never an ISIS member.
Who doesn’t happen to get out of bed in an ISIS capital and go buy some bread… and suddenly you’re like, “Hey, look, there are some severed heads here. Jihadi John, sorry to interrupt your shoot.. “let me take a picture with my finger raised in Takbir and a smile. My friends will be so jealous when I post it online.”
Thank you, @vonderleyen, for giving them billions of European taxpayers’ money and covering for their atrocities.
The Sharaa administration has appointed Mohammed Subhi Al Nashif as head of media (PR) for the Raqqah province.
He was a former ISIS emir, head of digital media of ISIS in Raqqah (Amaq media) - here he is proudly posing with the heads of civilians in Raqqah city.
Pragmatic ✨
StewardDB is a membership database and communications platform we designed based on in-depth conversations with labor organizers about the technologies they rely on, what they find frustrating, and the features they wish existed.

Some people have this video game mentality about “negotiations” wherein one presses a big “diplomacy” button, something happens behind the scenes involving “big teams of diplomats” (the more the better!), and then “peace” somehow materializes.
It’s a thought terminating cliche.
These returnees were supposed to be provided an armed escort by state security forces. This didn’t happen. Instead Kurdish IDPs found armed mobs waiting for their return who attacked their vehicles.
This is a critical failure by the government.

You can't make this up!
Syria's top diplomat in the US is a former Al-Qaeda/Nusra terrorist who kidnapped and imprisoned an American journalist after she had interviewed him.
Here's her story - and her interview with the Al-Qaeda operative before he became a diplomat...
Ask yourself why it is that you hear tons of negative media coverage about Democratic socialist candidates who are supposedly extremists for opposing a genocide and supporting universal healthcare, but so little, next to nothing!, about GOP candidates like this one:
Union nurses enthusiastically support Dr. Abdul El-Sayed for Senate because of his commitment to:
✅ Passing #MedicareForAll,
✅ Abolishing ICE, and
✅ Getting corporations out of politics and health care!
Vote Abdul by August 4! ✊
Neil Barofsky’s personal support for genocide is irreparably interfering with his duties and he should resign from his position immediately. The UAW deserves an unbiased Monitor, not someone improperly acting on his personal politics.
