“We are talking about a system of state terror," Stephen Rapp, former U.S. war crimes ambassador at large, said of how people lived in Syria under the Assad regime.

Summary

Mass graves uncovered in Syria after Bashar al-Assad’s overthrow reveal evidence of systematic atrocities, with over 100,000 people tortured and killed in what a top war crimes prosecutor described as the worst abuses “since the Nazis.”

Assad’s regime operated a “machinery of death,” involving mass disappearances, torture, and secret burials.

Rebel forces freed thousands of political prisoners, but many remain missing.

International efforts aim to document war crimes, though Assad, now in Russia, is unlikely to face trial.

    700k died because of Trump’s COVID policies. Including the bleach and ivermectin thing. It was so prevalent for him to kill his followers, a subreddit was made called the Herman Cain Award.

    Now, Trump wants to traffick/“deport” 25mil Latinos, majority Native American, Christian, and Catholic group. A real attack on Christianity and I haven’t heard a single Christian care. And he wanted to be able to traffick them out of the Bahamas to countries they didn’t originate from, until the Bahamas said no recently.
