”Tillbaka till Homs”

Passa på. SVT visar prisbelönt dokumentär:

 

Tillbaka till Homs

 

Aldrig tidigare har syrienkriget skildrats så brutalt närgående. Sundance-belönades 2014 med World Cinema Grand Jury Prize för bästa dokumentär.

Syrienkrigets allra hårdaste strider har utspelats i staden Homs. Filmaren Talal Derki följde under tre år två av sina vänner i den sönderbombade staden.

Demonstrationsledaren och revolutionsikonen Basset 19 år, och fotografen och mediaktivisten Ossama, 24 år.

Det här är berättelsen om staden som hela världen känner till, men få kommit nära. Om hur drömmen om frihet och rättvisa genom fredliga demonstrationer, förvandlades till ett fullskaligt brutalt krig.

”The world is watching how we are getting killed one by one, while it remains silent as the grave.”

Syrisk dokumentär från 2013 av Talal Derki. Foto: Ossama al Homsi, Talal Derki, Kahtan Hassoun och Orwa Nyrabia. Klippning: Anne Fabini.

När Obama får ett nigerianskt e-mail – från Assad

Så har det blivit dags för Bashar al-Assad att  via nätet gå med kollekthåven . Här en dråplig satir av Max Fisher:

 *****

In his interview on Wednesday with Fox News, Syrian President Bashar al-Assad said that the U.S.-Russian plan to destroy Syria’s chemical weapons would cost approximately $1 billion, a bill he argued that the United States should foot. “If the American administration is ready to pay this money and take the responsibility of bringing toxic materials to the United States, why don’t they do it?” he asked. If Assad is going to ask for U.S. money to pay for the destruction of Syria’s chemical weapons, what better form than the Nigerian e-mail scams we all receive. Here’s a text that President Assad should feel free to use for maximum effectiveness:
