Über Motivation und Identität von Rebellen in #Syrien
Travelling through #Syria (2008) I wondered about the immense amount of #Palestine flags only to learn that this specific variation actually is the symbol of the #Baath party, adopted in 1937. Only the ratio of the red triangle distinguishes the two flags from each other.
It should be kept in mind while wondering about (video) scenes from #Aleppo or elsewhere in #Syria that allegedly show fighters throwing #Palestine flags to the floor kicking and spitting at it. If one carefully checks one notices a smaller #triangle - the #Baath party flag.
While reaching out to religious minorities and protecting their communities, something many similiar-minded groups disagree with, to say the least. One could or should conclude that HTS has long broken ties with Al Qaida and formed their own ideological framework.
