Iran and its main ally are responsible for the same shyt. Both sides empower backward and destructive practices for the entire region...before this thread turns into an anti-Mooooslim hate fest, remember Qatar and the House of Saud are happy to sponsor death and destruction in Syria and give rise to the most violent, backward forces in the region while they tear the intellectual & cultural capital of the Arab world to pieces just to deprive Shiite Iran of its main ally.
I won't be supporting this world cup. Some shady shyt had to go down for Qatar to get it in the first place. I didn't support the last one because of the displacement of poor Brazilians

indeed, I follow this issue closely and the abuse of maids/foreign workers is widespread among affluent Lebanese too. but I would say it's more of a class issue than a race issue. poor Arabs in Lebanon and the Gulf also get treated like shyt.
I agree with this post brother but honestly the people of Syria did rise up against Bashar's crooked and evil ass in peaceful protest and he DID bomb them and kill them en masse. An organic resistance did form and people did fight against him at one point and continues to. Anything else is honestly peripheral in my view. Yes there are a lot of factors at play including what you said but I feel like it takes away from the true and natural resistance to oppression that does exist. His father was a butcher and he is too. Assad is worse than Saddam ever was and especially to his fellow Arabs. I joke around with the Sunni Shia partisan swag and I geniuenly don't trust Hezbollah or Iran, but that is not to say I trust those people who I openly concede are among the lowest form of humanity. They funded the people who terrorized and killed my family in Somalia. I can't say the same for the Shia brehs. All the external factors aside, I think I would be negligent and dishonest if I didn't personally pray and hope for a gruesome end to Assad and his wife's lives.

I agree. Even their fellow poorer Arabs get treated like shyt. In the Arab mindset, you're either something or you're nothing.
However, other Arabs rarely end up as maids, servants etc. It's usually reserved for poor South Asians and the treatment is horrendous.
Some of these Arabs are real fukkbois.
good post akh.
I'm in total agreement, during the first stage of this conflict, the Syrian protests against the Assad regime was genuine and represented the legitimate grievances and aspirations of the Syrian people. but that authentic, non-violent resistance have been entirely snuffed out by the extremist, foreign funded elements fighting Assad. the simple fact is this, if the majority of the Sunni favored the rebels over the Baathist government, Assad would have fallen years ago. it's simple math.
Syrians deserve justice from all sides that have perpetuated this madness for so long, but what they need now is a end to this war and a return to something that resembles normalcy.
the two situations are not analogous. Iraq was devastated by decades of war (where Iraqi Shiites largely fought Iranian Shiites) and sanctions, the population was starved and beaten down to the point where they were dependent on government for survival. Syria has been engulfed in a civil and regional war for 3 years now.It ain't that simple, if it was just a numbers game then using that logic Shiites in Iraq would have overthrew Saddam a long time ago. Fact is Sunnis there have few options, either Assad or the rebels, both for various reasons being undesirable to the moderate citizen.
True, good point.the two situations are not analogous. Iraq was devastated by decades of war (which Iraqi Shiites largely fought Iranian Shiites) and sanctions, the population was starved and beaten down to the point where they were dependent on government for survival. Syria has been engulfed in a civil and regional war for 3 years now. and
when the Sunni and Shia actually fought in Iraq, the Shia majority defeated them handily and committed wide scale ethnic cleansing.
