NP. It’s really interesting beyond it’s similarities to Arabic too; the dots in Syriac are used to make letters hard or soft, which makes a lot more sense than using the same rasm with a different number of dots to make a completely different sound.

The language also often explains the little weird differences between levantine Arabic and MSA or other dialects, like the word “طاقة” which refers to small round windows and “بوبو” which is used to refer to an infant.

The equivalent to Arabic ط is “tet”: ܛ, but in some fonts of Syriac “taw” ܬ looks like a mirrored ܛ.

You can read some words or full sentences sometimes, but some letters like taw (taa’) ت ܬ, ‘ayn ع ܥ, het (haa’) ح ܚ, and shin (sheen) ش ܫ are impossible to guess without checking out the alphabet first. The madnhaya script is closer to Arabic than the Estrangela script (which you’re probably seeing on your device).

Instead of the Arabic way of distinguishing similar letters by using dots, Syriac adds fangs or lines to change the “rasm” of the letter except for dal and raa’ which use a dot below and one above, respectively. I used to confuse waw ܘ, qaf ܩ, and mim ܡ a lot at first.

Arabic, English, some German, and can read / write Syriac Aramaic (Mostly use it to write Garshuni).

The DEs practically everyone is using - minus Cinnamon, for now - have great Wayland support and have Wayland as the default session. Other smaller DEs and WMs have it on their roadmap.

Wayland

The PA thinks that whatever Israel will leave them when they’re done stealing land will be more than what they’ll get fighting against the worldwide conspiracy. They actually believe that if all groups in Palestine had agreed to one of the past agreements and it went smoothly, they’d have proper borders and live relatively peacefully neighboring Israel, even with everything going on with countries Israel considers established, sovereign countries.

I wouldn’t be surprised if a lot of them think what they’re doing is right, noble, and in the best interest of the whiny ungrateful fighters.

That’s certainly one of the color schemes of all time.

This shit 100% contradicts Islamic teachings. So do the shrouds they use to bury women alive, like at that point just ditch the little openings that let them breath and see. Wrap them up in cloth and let their guardians transport them around, they shouldn’t be walking around without their guardians anyways.

Rule lawyering doesn’t really take you that far regarding this issue because wigs are explicitly forbidden and hair extensions that try to imitate actual hair are forbidden, and the people using them are cursed. The hair extension rule, according to most interpretations applies to all kinds of materials that are attached to the hair and look like it, so maybe you can just not attach it to your hair directly, but I can’t see how that might help.

They forgot to warn you about not using it as shampoo. They’re so getting sued.

Most interpretations forbid dying it black specifically. It’s recommended that white hair be dyed with henna, which is orange.

It’s funny because it makes fun of “Wholesome” stories which were prominent at some point (Still are on FB). Even if it was all about his girlfriend cheating, it’s still simply using the soldier as the butt of the joke with no deeper meaning.

The only thing wrong with this meme is how old it is (IMO).

something that’s somehow worse

That’s a very big claim. It’d take more than just a dictatorship to be worse than Ba’thist rule.

Why didn’t he fight back against HTS? They didn’t destroy his military, they ousted him from Syria. Terrorists now control Syria, the people are happy, the economy is improving, and people feel safe in their homes. How did he let that happen?

Assad did not directly attack Israel. He was transporting weapons for Iran to Hezbollah.

He wasn’t transporting weapons to Hezbollah, he was just standing there and the weapons were being transported. Until Israel threatened him and the dumbass Maher who thought he was being sneaky.

For now we shall see. It is possible HTS will resist Israel but looking less and less likely.

HTS will fight to sign a peace agreement acknowledging that the Golan is part of Israel at the very least.

If they wanted to, they could’ve destroyed all the weapons, defenses, and bases while Bashar was destroying infrastructure and homes. As for a land invasion, lets not pretend that HTS’ take over was more than them marching forward and replacing flags. No one would have fought for Bashar if Israel with air support and advanced weaponry were to start an invasion.

Israel bombed Gaza and went in, then did the same for Lebanon, and was inevitably gonna enter Syria. It just wasn’t in a rush to do so, the regime had already turned the country into rubble for them and was massacring Syrians city by city. It wouldn’t have been in Israel’s best interest to leave their regime exposed with no air defense or artillery.

Just for the record I don’t believe that HTS or the next Syrian government will keep up this feud with Israel, they’re an actual government that’s trying to build a country. It has been clear for quite some time now that the regime is not interested in the “Axis of resistance” and whatever they were planing, but they really needed the Russian and Iranian support so they stayed as a part of the resistance on paper. Now it’s gonna be official: No one is coming to get the Golan heights back, and no one has the power to help the Palestinians.

Yes, but they didn’t need to do that before, now they aren’t so certain.

Before Bashar’s indefinite vacation they just flew by and bombed whatever they though needed bombing and Bashar would just bank the right to respond, instead of actually responding or using the air defenses to stop the bombing in the first place.

They never needed to bomb Syria since Bashar took care of that. Plus his barrels had shrapnel and metal nails to cause as much bodily harm as possible to “his people”.

If they needed to get someone out of Syria and into some interrogation room they would just cross the border and grab him out of his house, just load him up and drive away.

I don’t think there are many things done to Gaza today that Bashar didn’t do to Douma, Daria, Allepo, Dar’a, Hama, Idlib, Homs, and Raqaa 10+ years ago.

Now Syria has some stability, the de facto government isn’t driving a wedge between each Syrian and their neighbor based on religion and race to keep Syrians in fear of each other, and they are actually working to improve peoples’ lives.
