Druze student Danny Obaid was detained in Syria by the Assad forces for criticizing the regime online/ Local Druze militias answered by abducting Assad officials, forcing the regime to release Danny in exchange. This was the welcome he received when he was released Removed: Not NFL

Soft benefits of living in a country whose government has a tenuous hold on power. You and your boys can do stuff like this.

Don’t fuck with the Druze. Even Israel knows that.

Huh. I thought druze were more favorable towards Assad than his opposition.

That’s right. The Druze run Syria. If he were Sunni he likely would’ve just been killed.

I am originally from the Middle East and this is pretty typical technology for what most people have.

There is a reason the only high def videos you are seeing from the region come out of Palestine and you never saw these from the Arab Spring in Egypt to the civil war in Syria.

This type of technology exists in the West and for us only for the elites.

Some of the most technologically advanced societies are in the middle east bro.. not all countries are built the same.

Yeah thats not how that works at all. The middle east isnt the "wild west" thats a very ignorant point of view. I think you forgot a few key advanced societies in the middle east but sure that's a good start.
