Welcome again to everybody. Make yourself at home. In the time-honoured tradition of our group, here is the weekly discussion thread.
On Sunday last week, Damascus fell to Salafi terrorists and other imperialist-aligned forces. Regardless of the flaws of the ousted government, this is a horrible situation for the Syrian proletariat as well as for the people of Palestine, Lebanon and others. We can only hope for the perseverance of the Syrian workers and the remaining anti-colonial resistance.

Maybe I’m just missing it but I must wonder why that doesn’t make the international news so much. Must be a bit scary to live there.
Probably it doesn’t make it to the news because it will ruin Europe’s image of being the dream place(very different to my homr country Mexico where news about cartel fights are hears everywhere in the world). Same as what happens with the “American dream” being promoted to latin americans.
That does explain things, unfortunately.
