How are you doing, @arabisouri? Became concerned for you and your family/people, now that Turkey appears to be taking advantage of their "invitation" into Syria. Thanks for an article that was very well articulated, packed with useful info, yet efficiently organized and humorous.

It's a very sad fact that by the time news from your region reaches us, it's been reconstructed to fit the narrative and twist Western perceptions.

Fun fact anyone can take to the bank: Westerners don't even learn their news from other Westerners, aside from the talking heads reading the scripts. But you know that.

This makes it all the more appreciated to get a perspective from someone who has established a pattern of truthfulness, a rare insight into a denied reality.

Your observations about certain platforms are astute, and your ideas people here would call "based," a positive term with which you are probably also familiar. I hope people will absorb some of your wisdom. In fact, I am going to start sharing your highly underappreciated material out to a wider audience (with proper credit and links), if you'd like. It is truly fantastic work.
