"assad" Discussed on Between The Lines

"I mean, women don't want to be siloed into one policy document. We care as much about, well, I do, foreign affairs, the economy and national security, all the other things that are considered in the domain of men that aren't inside that pink book. And that's where they get it wrong. They've got to embed female issue, women's issues right across the board and not get into this trap thinking that they're just about that narrow time of life when women are raising children or they're doing more of the heavy lifting around the home. It's a much more sophisticated electorate than that, particularly in relation to professional women. But don't just focus on the Teal seats Liberal Party. You've got to get out there and win new ground. I think the last time we really did that was at Western Sydney under Howard. That's in the 90s, Tom. They have not got outside the leafy parts of Melbourne and Sydney and Brisbane and chased down these new seats where people, you know, these women aren't professional women. They may not be in full -time work. They're juggling all the same concerns as people across the country, male and female. But we're not talking to them. We're sort of talking at them, but we're not having a conversation with them. And go back to your point about Maura Deming, as she's out there in Western Melbourne. You know, when she got up to the steps of the Victorian Parliament and got expelled as a result, she was reading out a speech that she had written with her Muslim female neighbour. I mean, these are the sort of seats, these are the sort of areas of urban capital cities that the Libs need to make ground in. And they're not. Peter, great to have you on RN. Delighted to be with you, Tom. Coming up, is Syria's President Assad, once an international outcast, is he about to be welcomed in from the cold? Well, is the Middle East about to be reshaped? After all the instability, the violence of recent years, you think about the invasions, the uprisings, the toppling of regimes, the sectarian tensions. After all that, this is a quieter time, but maybe no less profound. It's about the two big strategic players, the sharpest antagonists, having something of a rapprochement. First came the news back in March, those two regional powers, Shia Iran and Sunni Saudi Arabia, they had agreed to restore diplomatic ties after years of mutual hostility. Then this past week, Syria, kicked out of the Arab League 12 years ago with the outbreak of its civil war, and whose government and military has relied heavily on Tehran support. Well, Syria has been invited back to the Arab League. So if Bashar al -Assad is the murderous dictator portrayed in the West, why are Arab neighbours keen to re -embrace him? And will the rest of the world follow suit? Joshua Landis is director of the Centre for Middle Eastern Studies at the University of Oklahoma. He writes and manages syriacomment .com. It's a daily newsletter on Syrian politics. Joshua, welcome back to Between the Lines. Well, it's a pleasure being with you, Tom. Well, what do you make of Assad's welcome back at the Arab League? Is it simply a recognition that his regime has essentially won Syria's civil war? Well, it has. It has won Syria's civil war. And, you know, to do with your question about why are the Arab states embracing him, that has largely to do with the fact that you get to choose your friends,

"Described as war crimes. It led to the passing, and now the implementation of a bill in the U.S., the so called Caesar act. So here we have hard evidence about the brutality of this regime. And yeah, yes, this president is being readmitted into the Arab League and some countries in the world, even in the west, are saying maybe we should just be pragmatic and turn a blind eye, unfortunately. What does this tell us about, say, the Russia Ukraine situation? Are we going to suddenly see Vladimir Putin re embrace further down the line in the same way? I think the way Assad is being handled sets a really dangerous precedent for the world at large, because it gives people like Vladimir Putin, hope that one day they can be back.

"Today explained is back with Lena khatib, Bashar al-Assad is back in the Arab League. He's getting hugged. We asked Lena, what leaders have to gain from engaging with this dude on a global stage? I thought this is not going to take any meaningful action. All they will achieve is deescalation, they just want to kind of keep Assad out of their list of issues to worry about because they have other things to worry about. So that is it really. Sadly, it's not much more than that. I mean, they just want, in the case of Jordan, maybe, to have their borders quite and down a little bit. Are there countries in the Arab League that oppose Al Assad rejoining? Absolutely. Qatar says it has no plans to embrace Al Assad, who's blamed for the deaths of tens of thousands of his own people and the displacement of many, many more. Darwin is instead seeking to unite the Syrian opposition. It continues to support the Syrian opposition in northwest Syria and around the world actually. And it has declared very clearly that although it will not stand in the way of seriously admission into the Arab League, its own bilateral relations with Syria will remain as they had been before, meaning no diplomatic ties with Assad whatsoever and no recognition of the legitimacy of Assad as president of Syria. Our other countries around the world mad at the Arab League for admitting this known war criminal back into the fold, maybe the United States, I don't know, western nations? Yes, absolutely. The UK is disappointed with this move. The United States has also insisted that it still wants political transition according to the UN peace process to happen and that sanctions imposed by the U.S. on the Assad regime are not going to be lifted. We have made clear to all of our partners that Syria does not merit readmission into the Arab League and we continue to believe that we will not normalize our relations with the Assad regimes and we don't support our allies and partners doing so either. So when it comes to the European nations and the United States, it's business as usual Assad is still not regarded as legitimate. The European Union is there standing for the Syrian people. And for the rights of Syrian people. And we will continue to support the mechanism of international accountability for all the horrors that happen from the side of the regime supported by Russia in Syria against the Syrian people. Is there a precedent for this for letting a known war criminal, you know, just sort of get a pass and just be welcomed back into the fold. I mean, regionally and chemically Saddam Hussein comes to mind. Unfortunately, when it comes to politics, we are now in a world in which pragmatism rules rather than values. And when it comes to the Arab League in particular, many members of the Arab League are authoritarian regimes, they are not democracies. And so this issue of accountability is not absolute in this kind of context. So here you have Saddam Hussein, for example, who was obviously a criminal. And yet was never actually condemned very widely in the Arab world despite, for example, his invasion of Kuwait. And the other actions against the Kurds, et cetera he was a ruthless dictator. He used savage methods against his own people, including gassing 5000 Iraqi Kurds at halabja. So he was not absolutely isolated despite those actions. All might as Bashir of Sudan is another example. Al Bashir was the only serving head of state to be indicted for war crimes. International Criminal Court in The Hague issued two arrest warrants, the charges stemmed from the war in Darfur. So unfortunately, the situation of Bashar al-Assad is not the first time that this kind of scenario happens. But definitely Bashar al-Assad, I would say, is perhaps one of the most brutal. I mean, he ranks up there with Saddam Hussein, if not even higher up in terms of the extent of the brutality, he has inflicted on his people. And where do we go from here? I believe Bashar al-Assad has also been invited to the climate summit cop 28 in Dubai, this November, December, is he gonna be standing on some stage next to Joe Biden? And what would that mean for him? Just total legitimization? Well, for Bashar al-Assad, he would love nothing more than a photo op with Joe Biden or the prime minister of the UK or the king or any real western leader who we can basically stand next to in that context and say I am here. You have to accept me as the de facto winner in the Syrian conflict. The invitation to cop 28 came really to suit the agenda of the United Arab Emirates, which is the host of cop 28 to show the political clout that the UAE has, of course, Assad is relishing the moment he will do his best to use it as an opportunity to reenter the international community, not just the Arab League. So it will be a further step for him towards normalization at large. But this is, of course, going to make many western leaders uncomfortable because they will not want a photo op with Bashar al-Assad. That's for sure. There are a lot of bad dudes in the world. He's among the baddest, but what is this just safe for all the bad dudes that you can just abuse human rights conventions, the Geneva conventions with impunity and just wait it out for a while, and then just, I don't know, by inertia, be welcomed back into global politics? I mean, unfortunately, this sets a really bad precedent. Considering all the harsh words said about Assad considering the documentation of the crimes inflicted by Assad, this is why the U.S., for example, created this Caesar act. They're known as Caesar's photographs named after a military defector who documented torture and killings in Syrian government jails. His testimonies to the U.S. Congress was part of a campaign to hold the regime responsible for what have been

"Remember another university professor who was in his mid 70s actually who were beaten and dragged into the police van, my good friend rosanne Tony also was dragged from her hair and was pushed into the van. Many of them were taken outside of the city and dropped in the open and they had to walk back to their homes, but those were the lucky people only. The unlucky people had to go to the detention center and had to receive their portion of torture. By 2012, Assad's diplomatic relations with Arab countries started being severed one by one and he was as in Syria was kicked out of the Arab League. He always had Russia on his side, I guess, but how isolated did he get? I said got pretty isolated because in addition to being kicked out of the Arab League and by this I mean serious membership was suspended, you also had Western countries withdrawing their ambassadors closing their embassies. The United States expelled the Syrian sage affair, Berlin and Rome made similar decisions along with London. And so as that found himself with just few backers in the Middle East and very, very few engagements in the world at large, apart from some rogue states. And so I would say the international isolation was pretty significant and severe. The United States, the European countries, and many Arab countries called for Assad to step down, they did mean something to me and to many other Syrians. We were very optimistic that calling on asset to step down or announcing asset as a president who lost the legitimacy of ruling the country would eventually convince us that to step down. International isolation for Syria meant that Assad was no longer regarded as the legitimate leader of Syria and most countries I would say and the world. It meant economic isolation because the European Union and the United States, for example, began to impose sanctions on the Assad regime and people affiliated with the Assad regime, as well as businesses linked to the Assad regime. European leaders meeting in Brussels were determined to send a very personal message with these latest sanctions. Syrian president's wife will face travel bans and her assets will be frozen. His mother and sister are also targeted. So you have political isolation, economic isolation, and of course various attempts at political transition in Syria that ultimately aimed at removing aside from power. And he had to tackle all those things with the help of the Russians and the Iranians. And so did something change in the past year in the past 6 months. Why is it that all of a sudden Middle Eastern countries are saying, let's open up relations with Bashar al-Assad again, let's open up relations with Syria. What happened is over the years, all this isolation that Assad was subjected to politically was not enough to remove him from power. In the U.S. in particular, there was no diplomatic effort to really try to get rid of Assad. People may remember that president Obama had said the use of chemical weapons is and would be totally unacceptable. And if you make the tragic mistake of using these weapons, there will be consequences and you will be held accountable. But when that red line was crossed because the Assad regime did use chemical weapons, the U.S. did not really react. There were no repercussions for Assad. And in a way, this lost the United States. A lot of credibility in the Middle East, it lost the United States credibility in the eyes of asad himself, who started believing that actually the west did not really want him to leave, unlike what president Obama had literally said that basically Assad must go. We will continue to support the legitimate aspirations of the Syrian people, engaging with the opposition, providing with providing them with the humanitarian aid and working for a transition to a Syria that's free of the Assad regime. And over the years, the U.S. became much more concerned with under Obama with Iran and trying to have a nuclear deal signed with Iran. Because of this deal. The international community will be able to verify that the Islamic Republic of Iran will not develop a nuclear weapon. And gulf countries in particular Saudi Arabia felt let down that U.S. was prioritising, signing a nuclear deal with Iran rather than trying to deal with Iran's regional role such as the support for Assad. So you have an accumulation of factors over the years that led Arab countries in particular Saudi Arabia to feel that changing the regime in Syria is not a possibility anymore. Do you end peace process was not leading in that direction? Iran was getting stronger and stronger in the region and Saudi Arabia felt that it had no choice, but to try to deescalate tension instead of trying to get rid of Assad because they felt this is now impossible. So that is why he's been invited back into the Arab League. This is just a move to try to lower tensions in the region. When I saw a sad descent from his plane and met by the Saudi senior officials, when I saw him sit in the meeting and address the other presidents when I saw the Saudi officials welcome him, adoringly, I was appalled. I was distressed. I was depressed. I was angry and sad at the same time. And so was more than 60% of the Syrian people. We had the feeling that we were let down by the very governments which funded the opposition to become an armed opposition. And now they receive a set as a hero. For a while, when debate about readmitting Syria and to the Arab League was going on, there was talk amongst Arab states, Arab leaders that there could be some conditions. But what happened is Assad has been readmitted with no conditions whatsoever. Of course, you will read many analyses and articles that there are hidden conditions that, as I said, will have to change his attitude, but it is too late. I mean, what happens now if asset does not give any concession? Do you think the Arab leaders were expelled from the Arab League again? No way. What's done is done. Instead, what would have been conditions have now been transformed into issues for cooperation between Arab states and Syria. So when you say these are issues and not conditions, Assad is under no obligation to deliver on any of them. What are the issues? The peace process led by the UN, which Assad never really cooperated on anyway and is not going to cooperate now because the peace process means political transition and he's not going to give up power. Second issue is the issue of refugees. Currently there are 6 and a half million Syrian refugees in the world Assad does not want them back, really. So again, trying to imagine a scenario in which Assad is cooperating on refugee return as I think a fantasy. The third issue is that of detainees, there are many people who have disappeared and who are detained in Syria. And again, Asha does not going to suddenly tell us where they are, because he doesn't want to be held accountable for their disappearance and detention. And then you have the issue of the drug trade, mainly the drug captagon. It's a kind of amphetamine and Syria has become the leading place for the trade of captagon and manufacturing of captagon in the world. In northwestern Syria, rebels from the hayat area sham group, a seizing drugs at the border crossing, with this criminal industry valued in the billions of dollars, some are now asking if we are seeing the rise of a new Middle Eastern narco state. So again, this is a very lucrative source of funding for the Assad regime. And again, it's not likely to just suddenly give that up. And the final issue is that of militias backed by Iran that are running the show in many places in Syria, including being involved in the captagon trade. In particular, the Lebanese militia Hezbollah. In recent months, the militant Shiite Muslim group has thrown its support behind Syria's president Bashar al-Assad, fighting alongside the Syrian army, Hezbollah has helped them to win key victories against the Syrian rebels. Again, Assad is not going to suddenly give up on these allies that have kept him in power and are helping him make this money from the drug trade. Has Bashar al-Assad ever apologized, Lena. He has never apologized and he has never admitted doing anything wrong. Do you feel guilty? I did my best to protect the people so I can not feel guilty when you do your best. You feel sorry for the life that has been lost. But you don't feel guilty when you don't get people. He has always been consistent that in his view, there was never an uprising in Syria. There was an attempt by terrorists to destabilize Syria and all he is doing in his view is protect Syria from Paris. So he labels anyone who opposes him a terrorist and presents himself as defending Syria from danger. Lena's back when we're back on today explained.

Revolver's Darren Beattie Reacts to Tucker's Shocking Fox Exit

"Welcome, revolver dot news, check out Darren Darren we're going to talk all about 60 minutes, but I think this actually all ties together potentially. Darren, you've gone on Tucker's program multiple times to talk about rapes and to talk about revolver dot news. Darren, I want to do this kind of I want to do this playing a couple of clips that chuck you Schumer, which I think actually proves my point. But I do want to get your initial reaction there in the significance of Tucker Carlson tonight, obviously Tucker's still alive and he'll do something, right? But Tucker Carlson tonight being over, what is your reaction? Well, it's certainly a major blow and of course I have to assess how candid I want to be in my reaction because there's a lot of things to say. So I guess initially I'll just say that Tucker Carlson was the only person on American mainstream television who was willing to step outside of the playpen. I understand that there are some exceptions, but for the most part, that's true. And I'm not saying he wasn't just willing to step out of his playpen relative to the left or the right. He was willing to step outside of the playpen with respect to American media as such. He was the only person with the guts to challenge the story about Assad's chemical weapons attacks were being used as a pretext to basically launch the war that Hillary Clinton desperately wanted, but never got because Donald Trump was elected. And so many areas, he was willing to touch the actual serious issues that nobody else would, not the, oh, look at what AOC was doing or this or that. And even a lot of the political popcorn. He resisted the political popcorn. Look, and you know, I'm not, I think the trans stuff is ridiculous, too. But it's kind of still in the playpen, like everybody can talk about the trans dome where you're like, oh, how outrageous that is. Yes, it's outrageous. He's willing to go further. And one of the things that he was willing to touch and he touched it early on at great risk to himself was a January 6th step. He

Will Putin Feel the World Closing in Around Him? David Falt Explains

"With the number of deaths that have happened thus far to Russian soldiers, which is estimated is more than we saw in the entire ten years. They were in Afghanistan. And with the images that are now coming out for the horrors that have been committed, they're in Ukraine, will start to feel the world closing in around him. In other words, not having the support of the world not having the support of his country. I think the support of the world is of secondary concern to him. I think that he feels disenfranchised already. And I think that that has been something that's been in the making for a very long time. And I think what pivoted him into a real aggression I would say and starting to build up for his own type of control of world events was that the fact that he was totally cut out of coalition that air bombarded Libya and took out Gaddafi I think that started his grievance that he wasn't in the fall that it wasn't read in and part of it in any way shape or form and so his next play was to start backing Assad in a more direct military way with iron bombardment and viral bombs and he had a perfect benchmark from grocery, which he made basically made a parking lot out of. And that's what we've seen in Aleppo and other places where we were also present from 2012 and forward.

Why Is the U.S. Comfortable Associating With Ukrainian Nazis?

Why Is the U.S. Comfortable Associating With Ukrainian Nazis?

"If America had a KKK battalion within our own military. I want you to imagine if we were supporting groups that were Nazis. Well, we are. Actually. It's amazing. It's just shocking to me how the left wing regime media has spent years smearing all of us as Nazis, anyone who dares show up at school board meetings as Nazis and then they fund actual real-life Nazis in Ukraine. And this is not like a slur or an exaggeration, there's a video right here that we see in front of us where there is literally a guy wearing a Nazi symbol in full tattoos with fully automatic machine guns saying in Ukrainian like we're going to go kill the Russians. And so the argument then goes will Charlie, we have to back somebody because Vladimir Putin is evil. I agree. Vladimir Putin is evil. Well then under that logic, why didn't we back ISIS to go fight Bashar al-Assad? What if both sides could be really bad? Now, this is the backbone of some of the Ukrainian resistance in Mari Paul, which is the southeastern corner of Ukraine. The southeastern corner of Ukraine is right within this kind of Russian separatist area. It's where a lot of the fighting is happening. It's an area that Russia really, really wants. It's a port city, so a question that I think is necessary for us is why does the American regime or the people that run our government? Why are they all of a sudden so comfortable with associating with Nazis? Now I'm not calling zelensky Nazi. He's a grandchild of Holocaust survivors. Obviously not. Zelensky's Jewish.

Putin Says Ukraine Must Be 'Denazified'

"Putin announced that there is a special military operation to demilitarize and de notification of Ukraine. A pretty striking because remember all of you in this audience called Nazis for whatever reason. And there's lots of people who have ancestry that were victimized by in the Holocaust in the Ukrainian halls of power. It doesn't make a difference. You just call it Nazis and that is the tactic du jour, even with Putin. And he said many times Ukraine has crossed a red line. And he's even announced that there were two new republics, republics that did not exist just a day or two ago. Putin has created them and they're being knowledge, I guess, by Assad and Syria, but that's pretty much it. I don't think anyone else is acknowledging that these things are new. But that is the play in the Putin does. It's what he does. He just announces these things. And then we're all supposed to just accept them. We're not accept them. There is, of course, a level of trolling that does take place whenever it comes to getting attention on the world stage, but he says Russia can not feel safe and develop and exist with a cost and threat emanating from the territory of modern

I think we'll see him on the bench there there. There's there's there's no question to me Next let's go to the big. The biggest move of the off season and in my opinion the the saving grace. I guess you could say of this off season denied acquiring yamile assad By the way kudos to the to the united twitter universe a twitter account. I should say for their little tongue-in-cheek post before signing him. I thought that was pretty funny. but humil- assad joining the dc sending a bunch of garb bucks to atlanta and so many so many garber butts. But you know. I i think this was a case. Where you you have any player in. Mls you get seven goals and thirteen assists in. You have an opportunity to get him. You know dc necessarily need Need the position on the wings. Probably not but he's such a good talent that i don't think you ignore that easy young talent for that matter too. I mean he's a guy theoretically if he continues what he did in atlanta now different challenges here but if he continues what he did in atlanta. I mean you look at a guy you can have for three four years. Who can who is going to get. Just keep getting better and that's good that that's the thing i love about the dc. Now it's this team has has gotten so much younger as much as i loved. Windy rosario and fabulous. Spend a lo- when he was here. This is a team that if they're going in the league at least they're going young and that i do like i think there's two big things think about in this acquisition. I one is back the yeah. That's one. I think i think the one to look at is the amount of money that's being paid. Atlanta makes it so that if they end up not signing signing as odd long-term buying his buying actual contract. They've spent a lot of money on a two year rental of a player that they may already have. It agreed upon so he'd have to perform so badly that they didn't want to pay the. I think it's seven hundred fifty thousand dollars option to buy so it would have to be something really crazy. I would imagine for him to play so badly that we're willing to give up all the garbage bucks but still not pay seven hundred fifty thousand amount.

He's ruled the country since the death of his father in two thousand in the last election held in two thousand and fourteen had secured almost eighty nine percent of the vote with turnout at more than seventy three percent. This election is likely to deliver a similar result willett. The result is dependent on the country's two biggest allies russia and iran. Dr laura james is a middle east analyst at the global advisory firm oxford analytica and. She joins me now north. Thanks for coming on. Do we have the results yet. No they're not do until friday evening I think we can make a fair guess at them. Though to be honest. I mean is there any chance that russia could perhaps derail the selection. That's no indication that they want to at the moment There's always a question. Mark over how long russia will see asset is an asset rather than a liability. But i think generally the assumption is that keeping him in place keep things relatively stable that trying to bring somebody else in certainly. It isn't a to be played to soon. Possibly at some point they could bring in somebody similar as part of a deal for western reconstruction aid. But we're very very far from that point. In iran influence iran is also supporting asset again as a source of stability and as a gateway into the country. Pro-iranian militias are playing a very important role there and iran is looking for a reconstruction con contracts and most of all a routine into lebanon where it supports the hezbollah movement so again for a run asset is an important asset.

We've been getting a lot of questions you know in those areas because these are new issues and you know they're complicated issues and even you know, his attorneys were still trying to kind of figure it out as we go along as well, he says. As laws develop and new relief bills are passed, things keep changing, so they're trying their best to stay on top of it. James RoHaas WBZ Boston's NewsRadio smart.

"We have a lot to get to today, guys. First of all we got to say we've been saying it. Thank you, Georgia. Thank you, George for showing up, Thank you. So much. CNN is predicting that is projecting that Reverend Raphael Warnock is Georgia's first black senator. Thank you. Lord War not beat.

Congress will get an update on the election results at 1 P.m. today and we'll be watching the vote that left counted. And the last ones they've been counted again. In counties that are heavily populated by blacks and browns. Now watch their make No mistake about it. A lot of whites voted for all soft and a lot of whites voted for or not, Warnock and we do appreciate that. We appreciate the concerted effort. There is more hope for unity than it is for division. There is more hopeful love than it is for hate. The only thing about Haiti is hate happens to be louder than love, and that's what's been a prevailing force over the last four years. His hateful ass has been allowed to perpetrate his hate bigotry and lies. The sad part about it is so many people believe the lies. No, it is a life and just go along with it anyway. I understand that now some people who are just less and don't really know that these allies they just want to believe in the person they voted for. Understand that But the politicians know better.
