  • What is a "left lib"?

  • Yes yes I understand why Jolani needs to work with a genocidal state which openly says it wants to annex Syria and is doing it now. Very smart!

    Luckily you can't see a relation between anything at all! No relation between Israel, Saudi and the Brits to be found. no sir!

    This is like listening to an Orientalism crash-course .

  • That you think him being born in Saudi Arabia has anything to do with ISIS, or that Wahhabis are exclusively Saudi instead of a religious movement which has been spread across MENA since the 18th goddamn century, when it started, with only a brief suppression with the popularity of secular Ba’athist ideology in the Cold War, is immensely racist.

    So funny how all of them come from Saudi then isn't it? Wahabism is the Saudi state idology and exclusively spread by the Saudis. You can stop opening Google and digging yourself in a hole.

  • Yes the guy who worked with Al Baghdadi has no relation to ISIS. Put a new sticker on it and it's good to go!

    ISIS and Al Qaeda are both Saudi Wahabi groups. You clearly have no idea what the deal with Wahabis is and should probably read up on that if you think it implies racism.

    A 2021 PBS interview with Jolani revealed that he was born in 1982 in Saudi Arabia, where his father worked as an oil engineer until 1989.

    In that year, the Jolani family returned to Syria, where he grew up and lived in the Mezzeh neighbourhood of Damascus.

    Jolani's journey as a jihadist began in Iraq, linked to al-Qaeda through the Islamic State (IS) group's precursor - al-Qaeda in Iraq and, later, the Islamic State of Iraq (ISI).

    After the 2003 US-led invasion, he joined other foreign fighters in Iraq and, in 2005, was imprisoned at Camp Bucca, where he enhanced his jihadist affiliations and later on was introduced to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the quiet scholar who would later go on to lead IS.

    In 2011, Baghdadi sent Jolani to Syria with funding to establish al-Nusra Front, a covert faction tied to ISI. By 2012, Nusra had become a prominent Syrian fighting force, hiding its IS and al-Qaeda ties.

    Was it good?

  • Jolani is from ISIS and Al Nusra. Ring any bells?

  • Israel is literally bombing Syria and annexxing beyond the Golan Heights

    Hey let's team up with Israel, which is doing a literal genocide and says they want to invade Syria next, to attack Iran!

    So smart. Instead of teaming up with Iran to stop the genocidal ethnostate actively doing Lebensraum expansion on their land, they should team up with the guys annexxing their land!

    It's like if Ukraine would team up with Putin which is actively invading them, to fight Germany.

  • "No you see, he is openly telling everyone that he wants to fight Iran with Israel's help because... He is looking for allies!"

  • All signs indicate that the new Syrian dictator is an American-Israeli-backed agent who overthrew the Assad regime with the help of the US, Israel and Turkey.

  • His current comment proves that he seeks no peace with Iran. Instead he wants to team up with Israel and America to fight Lebanon and Iran.

    Jolani has the backing of America, Israel, Turkey and the entire Gulf. Which are pushing Syria to become an American puppet state.

    In fact the Syrian rebels had Syrian and Israeli backing before they overthrew Assad.

  • Good for them cutting off. But the insane amount of military spending is nonsensical. Where was all this money for global warming?

  • Palestinians deserve peace a lot more than their colonizers.

  • I feel like their bias is to simply not cover things they do not want to show.

    But the reason I find them more credible is because they are able to provide sources and not quote their own random anonymous journalists. If I can check the sources I can verify claims.

  • Lemmy really needs to get rid of the indentations when crossposting

  • Aaron Bushnell and others sacrificed themselves in the hopes of stopping the massacre and the state works to make us feel their sacrifice was made in vain, that there is no hope in escalating for Gaza and no point in bringing the war home. We can't let them succeed. Their sacrifices were not made in vain. - Elias Rodriguez.
