END the horror - sign the petition amn.st/61868Tgiw
This harrowing story is based on the real life accounts of former prison guards, officials and detainees held at the notorious Saydnaya Military Prison. Amnesty International has discovered that between 2011 and 2015, every week and often twice a week, groups of up to 50 people were taken out of their prison cells and hanged to death in Saydnaya prison 30 km north of Damascus, Syria. In five years, as many as 13,000 people, most of them civilians believed to be opposed to the government, were hanged in secret at Saydnaya. Prisoners were not aware of the sentence or the fact that they were going to be imminently executed until moments before they were hanged.

Well, this is what had been happening for a long long time ago in Syria & it is still happening, too many big questions why the UN, security council, human rights organisations.....etc did nothing for us, I really can not believe that they are not able to do anything against Assad or at least to help us not to be victims of such horrible regime, no body in the planet can even imagine how it looks or feels like inside these prisons, I was one of those prisoners but luckily I was not in Saydnaya & to have more worst situation now we have Trump who wants to cooperate with Assad to fight what he call it "Islamic Terroreism", the Russians just killed more than 20 innocent civilians today in the north of Syria, Iran helps Assads, the what the UN registterd it as a terrorist group Hizbollah fighting besides Assad, iraqi & many other militias are fighting & killing the civilians in Syria, why, why, whywhy, why, but the western government won´t to see it, they got everything to proof that Assad is the biggest criminal in the world by killing more than 400,000 people in Syria, but they don´want to do anything againsat him, meanwhile they keep saying that ISIS members did this & that & they have the proof about it while when there is barrel bombs falling down over the civilians they don´t know who did it, or when there is a big massacare took place in Syria, they claming that they gonna investigate it coz they are not sure who did it who who luanch the rockets, what a ********, but I´ll keep asking WHY they don´t help us, why they don´t stop him after almost 6 years on & why & why, believe me everyday counting killing in Syria creats more extremists & more people who will join some stupid, crazy, nonhuman guys like ISIS

To those who're denying the atrocities of the Syrian regime: read "A Journey to the Unknown: Thirteen Years in Syrian Prisons" by Aram Karabet, he's a Christian Syrian-Armenian and was member of the dissident Syrian Communist Party. He decribes life within regime prisons; the thousand of people he met, members of the Muslim Brotherhood, communists, socialists, nasserists, dissident Baathists, activists from different parts of civil society (trade unions etc), ordinary people who just complained about something, he decribes the killings, the raping, the humiliation in prison. I guess there are idiots out there to accuse him of being an 'Islamist'. Or read Yassin al-Haj Saleh who spent 16 years in prison, also in Tadmor, the doorway to hell.

I clearly wrote the DISSIDENT Syrian Communist Party, also called The Communist Party (political bureau) or the Communist Party (Riad al-Turk), now it's called Syrian Democratic People's Party (see wiki). Talking about Latakia and Tartous, read Samar Yazbek, she's an Alawite, or see "A Syrian Love Story" (on dailymotion) about writer Raghda Hassan, an Alawite from Tartous (member of the same Communist Party as Aram Karabet) and her Palestinian husband, Amer Daoud (of Christian origin). They met in prison, and that was decades before your 'radical jihadists'. I know too well all the international propagandists (mostly supporting the Syrian regime because they're pro-Putin) but most don't know Syrian history. See "Journey into Memory" with three Syrian intellectuals who spent many years in Tadmor prison (they are all left-wing, Yassin al-Haj Saleh is a non-believer). The Syrian regime which's been killing, torturing and jailing all dissident voices for more than 40 years is responsable for the tragedy in Syria today, Daesh/ISIS and other radical 'jihadists' are the consequence and not the cause.

You my friend have fallen for the deception which is based on emotions. These stories are created in such a way to reach to the human heart which naturally makes us empathetic. However, this report has so many flaws such as estimate being between 5000-13000 meaning it’s not precise, no mentioning of names only like 36 out of those victims, they say they can confirm 371 deaths yet they claim a higher number, and they say the grand mufti of Syria is deputized to act on behalf of President Assad. However, Syria is a secular state in which the religious figures have nothing to do with any criminal or judicial process. Furthermore, capital punishment in Syria is legal and is part of the constitution so why should the government be executing them like this why not just execute them openly. This report is built on allegations and is not based on a single shred of evidence. This is fake news to demonize Assad and the Syrian government who btw are the only people fighting for a peaceful, stabile, and prosperous Syria free of jihadism, terrorism, and fundamentalism.

Skadoosh Amnesty alleges 5000 -13,000 "mass hangings" in Syria's Saydnaya Prison. Scrutiny of report reveals the number is pulled out of thin air. It also purports to have interviewed four prison officials, who are unnamed, and on this basis estimates a weekly number of executions. That number, itself a guess based on dubious interviews, is then extrapolated over time based on a chain of hypotheticals. It's a tendentious, dubious report, based on flawed reasoning & unnamed sources, released by Amnesty in aid of US & NATO propaganda. The report's very title - "Human Slaughterhouse" - smacks of cheap tabloid journalism. Like Human Rights Watch, Amnesty produces fakenews on demand. Amnesty's bogus prison report, accompanied by this infantile Disneyesque animated cartoon, s a propaganda technique intended to distract from report's flimsiness with Madison Avenue-style "storytelling.” Amnesty envisions the public to be gullible children & to be snowed and manipulated via fabricated cartoon narratives - which evidently many are. These techniques are not original by any stretch of the imagination - even for something posing as a humanitarian organisation. But a the frequency at which it now occurs is really quite sinister.

@steveennever9905
@steveennever9905 7 жыл бұрын
Skadoosh Incorrect. You apparently see what you want to see, & hear what you want to hear. 1. Most of the witnesses are identified as opposition figures and "former" officials who do not live in Syria. Some are said to have been remotely interviewed in Syria but it is not clear if those were living in government or insurgent held areas. Page 9: The majority of these interviews took place in person in southern Turkey. The remaining interviews were conducted by telephone or through other remote means with interviewees still in Syria, or with individuals based in Lebanon, Jordan, European countries and the USA. It is well known that the Syrian insurgency is financed with several billion dollars per years from foreign state governments. It runs sophisticated propaganda operations. These witnesses all seem to have interests in condemning the Syrian government. Not once is an attempt made to provide a possibly divergent view. Amnesty found the persons it questioned by contacting international NGOs like itself and known foreign financed opposition (propaganda) groups: These groups include Urnammu for Justice and Human Rights, the Syrian Network for Human Rights, and the Syrian Institute for Justice and Accountability. 2. The numbers Amnesty provides are in a very wide range. None are documented in lists or similar exhibits. They are solely based on hearsay and guesstimates of two witnesses: People who worked within the prison authorities at Saydnaya told Amnesty International that extrajudicial executions related to the crisis in Syria first began in September 2011. Since that time, the frequency with which they have been carried out has varied and increased. For the first four months, it was usual for between seven and 20 people to be executed every 10-15 days. For the following 11 months, between 20 and 50 people were executed once a week, usually on Monday nights. For the subsequent six months, groups of between 20 and 50 people were executed once or twice a week, usually on Monday and/or Wednesday nights. Witness testimony from detainees suggests that the executions were conducted at a similar - or even higher - rate at least until December 2015. Assuming that the death rate remained the same as the preceding period, Amnesty International estimates that between 5,000 and 13,000 people were extrajudicially executed at Saydnaya between September 2011 and December 2015. From "between x and y", "once or twice a week", "suggests" and "assuming" the headline numbers are simply extrapolated in footnote 40 in a back-of-the-envelope calculation; "If A were true then B would be X": These estimates were based on the following calculations. If between seven and 20 were killed every 10-15 days from September to December 2011, the total figure would be between 56 people and 240 people for that period. If between 20 and 50 were killed every week between January and November 2012, the total figure would be between 880 and 2,200 for that period. If between 20 and 50 people were killed in 222 execution sessions (assuming the executions were carried out twice a week twice a month and once a week once a month) between December 2012 and December 2015, the total figure would be between 4,400 and 11,100 for that period. These calculations produce a minimum figure of 5,336, rounded down to the nearest thousand as 5,000, and 13,540, rounded down to the nearest thousand as 13,000. 2. I will not go into the details of witness statements on which the report is build. They seem at least exaggerated and are not verifiable at all. In the end it is pure hearsay on which Amnesty sets it conclusions. One example from page 25: “Hamid”, a former military officer when he was arrested in 2012, recalled the sounds he heard at night during an execution: "There was a sound of something being pulled out - like a piece of wood, I’m not sure - and then you would hear the sound of them being strangled… If you put your ears on the floor, you could hear the sound of a kind of gurgling. This would last around 10 minutes… We were sleeping on top of the sound of people choking to death. This was normal for me then." A court might accept 'sound of "I'm not sure" "kind of gurgling" noise through concrete' as proof that a shower was running somewhere. But as proof of executions? Of all the witnesses Amnesty says it interviewed only two, a former prison official and a former judge, who describe actual executions (page 25). From the wording of their statements it is unclear if they have witnessed any hangings themselves or just describe something they have been told of. 3. The numbers of people Amnesty claims were executed are - at best - a wild ass guess. How come that Amnesty can name only very few of those? On page 30 of its report it says: Former detainees from the red building at Saydnaya provided Amnesty International with the names of 59 individuals who they witnessed being taken from their cells in the afternoon, being told that they were being transferred to civilian prisons in Syria. The evidence contained in this report strongly suggests that in fact, these individuals were extrajudicially executed. and Former prison guards and a former prison official from Saydnaya also provided Amnesty International with the names of 36 detainees who had been extrajudicially executed in Saydnaya since 2011. Those 95, some of whom may have been "executed" - or not, are the only ones Amnesty claims to be able to name. That is less than 1-2% of the reports central claim of 5,000 to 13,000 executed. All those witnesses could provide no more details of persons allegedly killed? Amnesty acknowledges that its numbers are bogus. Under the headline "Documented Deaths" on page 40 it then adds additional names and numbers to those above but these are not from executions: the exact number of deaths in Saydnaya is impossible to specify. However, the Syrian Network for Human Rights has verified and shared with Amnesty International the names of 375 individuals who have died in Saydnaya as a result of torture and other ill-treatment between March 2011 and October 2016. Of these, 317 were civilians at the time of their arrest, 39 were members of the Syrian military and 19 were members of non-state armed groups. In the course of the research for this report, Amnesty International obtained the names of 36 additional individuals who died as a result of torture and other ill-treatment in Saydnaya. These names were provided to Amnesty International by former detainees who witnessed the deaths in their cells The "Syrian Network for Human Rights" (SNHR) is a group in the UK probably connected to British foreign intelligence and with dubious monetary sources. It only says: SNHR funds its work and activities through unconditional grants and donations from individuals and institutions. Now that is true transparency. SNHR is known for rather ridiculous claims about casualties caused by various sides of the conflict. It is not know what SNHR qualifies as civilians - do these include armed civil militia? But note that none of the mostly civilians SNHR claims to have died in the prison are said to have been executed. How is it possible that a organization frequently quoted in the media as detailed source of casualties in Syria has no record of the 5,000 to 13,000 Amnesty claims were executed? 4. The report is padded up with before/after satellite pictures of enlarged graveyards in Syria. It claims that these expansions are a sign of mass graves of government opponents. But there is zero evidence for that. Many people have died in Syria throughout the war on all sides of the conflict. The enlargement, for example, of the Martyrs Cemetery south of Damascus (p.29/30) is hardly a sign of mass killing of anti-government insurgents. Would those be honored as martyrs by the government side? 5. The report talks of "extrajudicially executed" prisoners but then describes (military) court procedures and a necessary higher up approval of the judgement. One may not like the laws that govern the Syrian state but the courts and the procedures Amnesty describes seem to follow Syrian laws and legal processes. They are thereby - by definition - not extrajudicial. 6. In its Executive Summary the Amnesty report says that "Death sentences are approved by the Grand Mufti of Syria and ...". But there is no evidence provided of "approval" by the Grand Mufti in the details of the report. On page 19 it claims, based on two former prison and court officials: The judgement is sent by military post to the Grand Mufti of Syria and to either the Minister of Defence or the Chief of Staff of the Army, who are deputized to sign for Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and who specify the date of the execution. It is very doubtful that the Syrian government would "deputize" or even inform the Grand Mufti in cases of military or criminal legal proceedings. Amnesty International may dislike the fact but Syria is a secular state. The Grand Mufti in Syria is a civil legal authority for some followers of the Sunni Muslim religion in Syria but he has no official judiciary role. From the 2010 Swiss dissertation Models of Religious Freedom: Switzerland, the United States, and Syria quoted here: In Syria a mufti is a legal and religious expert (faqih and ‘alim) who has the power to give legally non-binding recommendations (sing. fatwa, pl. fatawa) in matters of Islamic law. ... Queries which are either sought by a shari‘a judge or private individuals regard the personal status laws of the Muslim community only. In the Arab Republic fatawa are given neither to public authorities nor to individual civil servants, .. Neither the Syrian constitution nor any Syrian law I can find refers to a role of the Grand Mufti in any military or civil criminal court proceding. The Amnesty claim "approved by the Grand Mufti of Syria"is not recorded anywhere else. It is very likely false. The Grand Mufti, Sheikh Ahmad Badreddin Hassoun, is a moderate, recognized and accomplished scholar. He should sue Amnesty for this slander. Syrian law includes a death penalty for certain severe and violent crimes. Before 2011 actual executions in Syria were very rare, most death sentences were commuted. Allegedly the laws were amended in late 2011, after the war in Syria had started, to include the death penalty as possible punishment for directly arming terrorists. It is quite likely that the Syrian military and/or civil judiciary hand out some death penalties against captured foreign and domestic "rebels" it finds them guilty of very severe crimes. It is fighting the Islamic State, al Qaeda and other extreme groups well known for mass murder and other extreme atrocities. It is likely that some of those sentences are applied. But the Syrian government has also provided amnesty to ten-thousands of "rebels" who fought the government but have laid down their arms. The claims in the Amnesty report are based on spurious and biased opposition accounts from outside of the country. The headline numbers of 5,000 to 13,000 are calculated on the base of unfounded hypotheticals. The report itself states that only 36 names of allegedly executed persons are known to Amnesty, less than the number of "witnesses" Amnesty claims to have interviewed. The high number of claimed execution together with the very low number of names is not plausible. The report does not even meet the lowest mark of scientific or legal veracity. It is pure biased propaganda.
