Does the West only care about Syria when Israel strikes it?

“What little wealth the country does have, including in gas and phosphate, was offered to the Syrian regime’s Russian and Iranian sponsors for their exploitation. If Syrians survive in regime-controlled areas, it’s largely thanks to remittances.”

“In March 2024, the UN coordinator for Syria, Adam Abdelmoula, announced a big investment plan for civilian infrastructure in Syria. It is a reward being given to one of the biggest criminals in modern history, from an organization tasked with maintaining peace and protecting human rights.”

unexposedhazard,

It wasnt that anyone cared about Syria, it was that people cared about a consulate getting bombed. Doesnt matter where it is, you just dont do that.

The actual answer, no matter what they tell you, is a lack of empathy.
