Islamic Republic of Iran establishes new jihad organization: ‘The Islamic Resistance in Syria’
Trying to recapture what they had with Assad. And in doing so, they give another indication of the Islamic character of these conflicts, which everyone steadfastly ignores.
Iran establishes new terrorist organization in Syria: ‘The Islamic Resistance’
Israel Hayom, March 5, 2025:
Iran’s “Mehr” news agency announced on Wednesday morning the establishment of a new terrorist organization named “The Islamic Resistance in Syria.” The organization was founded “in light of the recent developments Syria has witnessed,” according to the report.
In a statement released by the group, it said, “This step is a natural and legitimate response to confront the attempts at division and displacement that the country has endured.” The statement was accompanied by a logo resembling those of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and Hezbollah, featuring a raised hand holding a rifle.
The statement declared that the organization aims to represent all sects in Syria and focus on “defending security and territorial integrity.” It further noted that the group was established due to “the absence of the political and social forces that previously managed Syria,” referencing the collapse of the Assad regime in December. The organization emphasized that its goal is “to defend Syria from occupation and to unite and stand against falsehood.”
In early February, the Hezbollah-affiliated newspaper “Al-Akhbar” reported that a group calling itself “The Syrian Resistance” had announced its operations against Israel and Islamist government forces in Damascus. The group referred to these forces as “the gangs of al-Jolani,” referencing the nickname of Syria’s interim president, Ahmed al-Sharaa….

Syria: Turkey-backed jihadis massacre Alawites and Greek Orthodox Christians, death toll could be as high as 1,800
Where is the international outcry? Where are the student encampments? Where are the UN condemnations? Of course, none of that will be forthcoming, because the perpetrators are Islamic jihadis, and so the world sees nothing.
SYRIA: Turkey-backed jihadists massacre Greek Orthodox Christians and Alawites in latest bout of violence
by Paul Antonopoulos, Greek City Times, March 8, 2025:
Hundreds of Christians, including Greek Orthodox, and Alawites have been killed after clashes broke out on Thursday in the Latakia and Tartous regions on Syria’s Mediterranean coast, according to a human rights monitoring group.
The Syrian Network for Human Rights (SNHR) said on Friday that more than 225 people have been killed since Thursday. However, this is believed to be a gross underreporting, with activists on the ground, such as Coast Youth Forum, believing the death toll could be as high as 1,800, mostly Alawites, but also Christians.
Syria’s new regime, led by so-called transitional president Ahmad al-Sharaa, has for months been massacring the Alawite minority, as well as Christians, under the guise of eliminating remnants of the former Assad dictatorship.
In his first statement since the violence broke out, Ahmed al-Sharaa said Syria would pursue the “remnants” of the ousted Assad regime and bring them to trial, Reuters reports.
The latest massacres mark a sharp escalation though, with disturbing videos seen by Greek City Times showing the execution of civilians, women, children and the elderly.
Greek City Times has decided not to share the footage.
Nonetheless, many videos are circulating on social media of the pogroms launched by the Sunni chauvinist takfiri on the country’s minorities.
One video shows the Turkish-backed jihadists desecrating a Christian icon in Tartous. The militant says, “Our guardian is Allah, and you have no guardian,” accusing Christians of idol worship.
The Greco-Levantines Worldwide media activists reported that two Antiochian Greeks, Tony Petrus and his son Fadi Petrus, were killed on Friday by the so-called security forces of the new Syrian regime.
In another instance, an entire Alawite family were slaughtered.
Among the collapse of law and order, Christian and Alawite stores and houses are being looted by the Salafist forces.
The Alawite community has been left in “a state of horror” since the massacres began, a Syrian activist in the city told BBC Newshour.
“They are feeling so fearful. They are in a state of shock,” said the activist, who did not want to use his name for fear of reprisals. “They don’t know what to do. There is no government or state who is ready to help them, to protect them.”…

Syria: Muslim child says, ‘Patience, O Alawites,
we will come to slaughter you’
What happens when you have a culture that reveres a book that exhorts those who believe in it to “kill them wherever you find them” (Qur’an 2:191, 4:89, 4:91, cf. 9:5)?
