geneva_convenience@lemmy.mlOPto World News@lemmy.world•Syrian president under fire for saying 'We share common enemies' with IsraelEnglish21·2 months agoYes 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 .
geneva_convenience@lemmy.mlOPto World News@lemmy.world•Syrian president under fire for saying 'We share common enemies' with IsraelEnglish31·2 months agoThat 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.

Former Israeli Mossad Chief Halevy on giving medical treatment to al Qaeda in Syria:
Q: Is it true that Israel is helping wounded Al-Qaeda fighters?
“It’s always useful to deal with your enemies in a humane way.”
Q: “Would you also treat Hezbollah fighters?”
“No”
geneva_convenience@lemmy.mlOPto World News@lemmy.world•Syrian president under fire for saying 'We share common enemies' with IsraelEnglish31·2 months agoYes 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?

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.
