The Dark Reality of Al-Julani’s Rule: Are We Just Witnessing the Rise of Another Tyrant?

 


Recent violent actions of Al-Julani’s group perform cruel acts including flogging an orphaned child for selling cigarettes, power abuse. As it will be seen, this kind of approach represents the level of dominance that Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) has in some regions in Syria. It has gone further in oppression starting with gagging the dissenters to brutalizing citizens who are least protected. The flogging of the child who just attempted to feed his family just demonstrates the price people pay when they are forced to survive under the rule of this terror group, HTS. This is not an exception to the rule but is rather a part of a tendency to establish violence in Syria.Al-Julani, once an associate of Al-Qaeda, relentlessly has pursued the agenda of an Islamic state in the Levant. They belong to a group that is affiliated with terrorist organizations such Al-Qaeda, which raises eyebrows. The recent good results of HTS have brightened the militants in the eyes of other global terror networks and thus confirmed the rightfulness of their fight in the eyes of the radicals. Syria is still very close to Al-Qaeda and this kind of link could endanger not only the country but the whole region and continue to worsening the situation in humanitarian crises.In addition to its despotic culture of violence, HTS has interfered with local administration. They have released condemned terrorists through pardon which test their respect for justice and law. Their strategy is simple: take control of the state institutions involved in the spheres of health care, education process and local police while making sure that their own goals and aspirations are served at the Syrians’ people’s expense. Lacking concern with the difficulties of the population, they force their idea of a society where everyone will be obedient and follow the orders of the government.The goal of HTS’s domination has destroyed the normal existence of millions of Syrians. Effectively education systems are current in a state of disarray, healthcare facilities are operating at primitive levels and public services are basically non-existent. Such disruptions are clearly creating much suffering for civilians especially the youths who find themselves locked out of a better tomorrow. This is owed to a government whose major concern is not the welfare of its citizens but bends over at the whim of an oppressive and indifferent regime.The present interim government with HTS having authority has failed to successfully govern concentrations areas. Using its performance in Idlib in 2017 and the present as a benchmark differ significantly. Although through the manifestation of HTS a consolidation of power was achieved, the deaf auiong society which this new entity was meant to foster, was not realised. The group has had no intention to solve critical crises of the people like; job creation, fixing infrastructures, or protecting the citizens.Almately, the emergence and rise of Al-Julani and HTS is a catastrophic experience for the Syria and the Syrien people who only seek to have a life in peace without wars. The groups own acts of violence and seeming inability to govern increases doubts about the groups future and the image of a stable Syriac under its rule. As they continue their quest for dominance, the question remains: will the international community be able to act and take actions, can they just stay indifferent to the pain of Syrian people?

Bangladesh Military Expresses Discontent Over Chinese Weapons; Reports 'Sub-Standard' and Faulty Parts

  Bangladesh, a traditional buyer of Chinese military equipment, has raised grievances with Beijing regarding the delivery of defective components and technical malfunctions in its imported military hardware. This issue is not unique to Bangladesh, as other nations like Myanmar have also encountered problems with Chinese fighter jets, according to an ET report. Experts in the Chinese defense industry argue that Beijing lacks the expertise to manufacture highly sophisticated military hardware and is not yet considered a top-tier producer of modern defense equipment. They claim that much of China's weapon systems are based on outdated technology copied from the West. Developing countries often opt for Chinese weapons due to their lower cost compared to similar systems from Western countries. China sells arms through state-run export organizations like the Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC), NORINCO, and CVIC. Sources familiar with the matter told ET that the Bangladesh mil...

India raises concern over North Korea missile tests at UNSC, 2nd time in weeks

 As the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) met for the second time in a month over the missile tests in North Korea, India yet again raised concerns over the impact on peace and security in the region. New Delhi has also reiterated its support for the denuclearisation in the Korean peninsula, underlining that it is “in collective interest” while also stressing that “dialogue and diplomacy” are preferred means to resolve the issue. The latest intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) test by the DPRK (Democratic People's Republic of Korea) has again sparked tensions between nations with the United States and its allies calling for the country to limit its programs even as Russia and China back Pyongyang amid the likelihood of new sanctions. In the latest UNSC meeting, the United States, Britain, France, and India were among 14 nations to "strongly condemn" the latest North Korea launch on Friday, which was reported to have landed about 125 miles (200 kilometers) from ...
