A common slogan for Syrian prisons ver the year has been “Those who go in go missing, and those who get out are reborn”

Last year, I wrote about some of the families we spoke to in “The Soil and the Sea” and how they live in excruciating limbo. Could now be the time they finally get real answers?

There are credible voices, incl former detainees, raising questions on the authenticity of this footage, CNN International PR. CNN must immediately & transparently investigate. Amid thousands of real stories from survivors of Assad's prisons, failure to do so would be professional misconduct.

My timeline is flooded—again—with horrific images of Palestinian children being slaughtered by Israel, all while the media gaslights us with “Israel targets Hamas amid fragile ceasefire” headlines. No food, no water, no evacuations, just a massacre across Gaza. This is genocide.

You don’t kill over 17,000 children by accident, you kill children when you want to wipe out a people’s future. This is genocide.
