It’s been a while since I’ve done one of these, mostly since my Twitter feed allows me to share links on a daily basis, but this one’s on Syria:
- The Facebook page on Amina Abdallah, the Syrian blogger kidnapped by security forces
- My friend Mohamad Bazzi in the LRB on Bashar’s dilemma
- Khalil Issa in Al-Akhbar on the Lebanese left’s hypocrisy on Syria
- Friends at AJE on Hamza al-Khateeb, the young boy brutally tortured and killed by Syrian mukhabarat
- Some interesting observations by an American observer in Syria
- Khaled Saghieh’s criticism of Hezbollah’s support of the Syrian regime (in English here)
- Qifa Nabki on Nasrallah’s statements on Syria compared to other revolutions
- The final statement from the Syrian opposition conference in Antalya
- A first-hand account of torture by a Reuters reporter from Jordan
- A blog devoted to Syria by Le Monde
- IDF shoots unarmed protesters at the cease-fire line in occupied Golan Heights
Note: I have heard and read conflicting reports about the violence in Yarmouk, the Palestinian camp in the Damascus area, but most reports agree that the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, General Command (PFLP-GC) shot protesters. I’ll try to post something once the picture becomes a little clearer, but here is an initial report from AJE.
