As a Syrian living in Syria, I am telling you, You can NEVER live comfortably in Syria unless: 1- You are a thief (protected by corrupt officials).. 2- You have somebody outside the country aiding you with money. other than that you are doomed to sadness and injustice and no hope or future. and if you wanna save yourself you should immigrate. this is the situation in safe areas where there is no war -Currently- so even if the war is considered "over" which has never happened yet, the financial situation is still even harder to live through. my People are really hardworking people, everywhere they go they try to make a living and help their people in Syria, so do not be harsh to our immigrants, they are the hope of a new Syrian generation that can live peacefully and hopefully rebuild Syria in the future.

And right when the fighting started they all jumped right in, like they had been waiting for it. Intense.

As a Kurd from Afrin, Northern Syria, I can truly say that we, the Kurds, are deeply devastated! No one wants to recognize us. Moreover, our homes have been taken by the Turkish army and handed over to Arab mercenaries, who now control our city. The dictator Assad views us as a potential threat that could divide the country, using this as an excuse to avoid recognizing our rights.
@fredshred51943 ай бұрын
He was elected, unlike any Kurd, you just lackeys for the US. And funny its not just Assad that has problems with Kurds but Turkey as well. Assad is the most secular ELECTED President in that region and yet somehow you Kurds can't live in peace in Syria. If you can't live peace within Syria do you think it will get any better with an ISIS running the country ? If they get back in power they will wipe out all Kurds

Yes this is their goal, the big mistake the Kurds made was attempting to take control of northern Syria which is a whole different field to the Iraqi Kurdistan province. The northern and even northeast Syria demography does not favour a Kurdish state not to mention both Turkey and Iran are opposed to it for geo and politic reasons, one of the few things they agree on.

You could argue it was out of the news cycle because the war had calmed down to such a point that, by some definitions, it wasn't large-scale enough to be called a war anymore. That doesn't mean fighting had stopped or people stopped dying. Such is the ugly reality of the news cycle and of how conflicts can wax and wane over time.
