Terrorists of the Tawhid Brigade, ISIS, and al-Qaeda in Syria [al-Nusra], occupying the Eye Hospital complex in eastern Aleppo converted undergrounds of buildings into prisons for civilians of eastern Aleppo districts to be held captive after trial in Sharia Courts. Prisons included tight solitary confinement cells. June 2017.

Yesterday, when walking in Old Damascus and stopping to wait out the rain, I was invited into a wonderful traditional old home to take photos. When I asked about whether the family had been affected by mortars, they gave me a tour of their beautiful old home, indeed damaged by terrorists' bombings. Please note that while thankfully the damages appears minimal, the family could not afford to replace the fitted glass (very expensive and why replace when terrorists would only bomb and destroy again?), and that the shelling not only damaged their ancient home, but also traumatized their children. These are only *some* of the morbid aspects of the "moderate" terrorists' war on Syrian civilians. Of course, being typical Syrians, the family insisted on serving tea and handmade sweets to their guests. ??️?

March 18, 2020 Long, productive, rewarding, and also sad, day in Aleppo. The sad--tragic--part was meeting a man, Abdel Aziz, who was held in the terrorists' underground prison in the Eye/Children's Hospital complex, occupied by terrorist factions until liberation of eastern Aleppo areas in late 2016. Held for over a year, he said, in solitary confinement most of that time, he said. In mid 2017, I saw an underground prison in that terrorist-occupied hospital complex, and saw the cells he would have been held in [ https://youtu.be/ll-jO2I_ISs ...also in Lairamoun, Aleppo: https://youtu.be/OW8Om7we3z4 ]. More on that below. Solitary confinement there was a narrow cement and metal door cell just wide enough for an adult to fit in. At best he could probably sit, knees to chest... but not lie down. He was one of many civilians kept in such horrific circumstances. He started to cry when I asked him questions about this unjust incarceration, so I didn't push much beyond asking the very basics. This man is traumatized, probably for life. These terrorism was done by terrorists backed by the West, who still dare to call them "rebels". When interviewing others today, on a variety of issues, including rebuilding in Aleppo, whenever the matter of the terrorists came up they were clear that all of the terrorists, whatever name they go by (Free Syrian Army, etc) are the same, something I've heard over and over again around Syria. And it's logical, because these thieves and criminals all commit acts of terrorism, whether shelling and sniping civilian areas, holding civilians hostage, starving them, torturing them, beheading them... From my article on liberated Aleppo: "...in the Eye Hospital complex, I passed a building marked as the headquarters of the Tawhid Brigade, and a building marked on an outside wall with the writing, “The Sharia court in Aleppo and its countryside,” before entering and descending to another underground prison. A heavy steel door grants access to a room used to imprison tens of civilians in the underground prison in the Eye Hospital complex, Aleppo Syria, June, 2017. (Eva Bartlett/MintPress News) A heavy steel door grants access to a solitary confinement cell in the makeshift underground prison in the Eye Hospital complex, Aleppo Syria, June, 2017. (Eva Bartlett/MintPress News) It contained the same tight solitary confinement cells as in Lairamoun, as well as many dank, windowless, concrete rooms serving as mass cells for the unfortunate Aleppo residents imprisoned by the terrorists. Many of the cement room-cells contained religious texts, in boxes and plastic crates, and on the main level two rooms had been used as classrooms, segregated by sex, for teaching the extremists’ beliefs to Aleppo’s mostly-Sunni Muslims. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9zU2SPnAbU

I uploaded an interview very recently and Youtube decided you should not be able to view it, because it "violates" "community guidelines"... I don't need to explain how absurd this is.
