Syrian government calls on migrants to return, help rebuild country

Jul 4, 2018 11:42 am By Robert Spencer

Great idea. “Syrian Government Appeals for Refugees to Return, Help Rebuild Country,” Associated Press, July 4, 2018: BEIRUT (AP) — The Syrian government on Tuesday called on refugees to return, saying it has successfully cleared large areas of “terrorists.” The rare appeal reflects the government’s growing confidence after more than seven years of war. While […]

Damascus: Jihad suicide bomber murders at least nine, wounds several

Jul 2, 2017 5:54 am By Robert Spencer

Damascus is full of people who believe that others around them are insufficiently Muslim, and thus worthy of being murdered. And Paradise is guaranteed to those who “kill and are killed” for Allah (Qur’an 9:111). “Suicide bomber in Damascus kills at least nine, wounds several,” Reuters, July 2, 2017: At least nine people were killed […]

“Trump supports terrorism” “Death to America, death to Israel!” Hundreds in Damascus protest US strike

Apr 11, 2017 9:09 am By Robert Spencer

“Trump supports terrorism”? These protesters are aware of what I have pointed out here, that a weakening of the Assad regime redounds to the benefit only of the Islamic State and other Sunni jihad groups. On the other hand, these protesters were chanting “Death to America, death to Israel,” because the Assad regime is a […]

Ramadan in Damascus: Islamic State murders at least 12 with bombs near Shia shrine

Jun 11, 2016 10:41 am By Robert Spencer

Islamic State spokesman Abu Mohammad al-Adnani recently called on Muslims to “get prepared, be ready … to make it a month of calamity everywhere for nonbelievers…” For the Islamic State, those “nonbelievers” would include Shi’ites, whom they deride as “Rafidites,” rejectors, i.e., those who reject the caliphates of Abu Bakr, Umar and Uthman. “Syria: Bombings […]

Islamic State kidnaps over 300 Syrian workers

Apr 7, 2016 11:17 am By Robert Spencer

The Syrian cement company workers must have done something to provoke the poor dears, right? Maybe they drew Muhammad in the cement? Surely they must have done something to poke them in the eye. Or is the West going to have to admit at some point that the Islamic State wants to terrorize non-Muslims for […]

Islamic State battling in Damascus streets, closing in on city center

Aug 31, 2015 1:45 pm By Robert Spencer

Islamic State has Damascus in its crosshairs

Aug 23, 2015 3:41 pm By Robert Spencer

That happened last Thursday, when a mortar shell landed in the heart of Damascus, killing six inhabitants.” “Islamic State has Damascus in its crosshairs,” by Avi Issacharoff, Times of Israel, August 22, […]

Islamic State seizes vast Damascus refugee camp

Apr 1, 2015 11:18 pm By Robert Spencer

Assad on the hot seat.
