Anger is the most destructive of emotional responses, for it clouds your vision the most.

The suffering of the Yazidis is endless. I just spoke with a father who lost his son in a river between Turkey and Greece as the family attempted to migrate. Another Yazidi child was also lost. The smuggler placed a group of 13 people in an inflatable raft; it sank only minutes later. The mother and father managed to save themselves, but their child likely drowned. This has been fate of hundreds of families over the past 12 years.

When people imitate others instead of adding their unique voice, their work lacks soul.

لما توقف مع فلسطين ضد اسرائيل لكن تهلل لتركيا ضد الأكراد والأرمن والبلغار والصرب والرومان واليونان والسريان. اعلم انك منافق
لا أخبرك عن ال ٤٠٠ الف يوناني الذين بطش بهم الجيش العثماني لمنع استقلالهم في ارضهم بالانتقاضة الاوبى. بل فقط انظر ماذا فعل التركي بالشعب الكردي المسلم

Shingal nach den Waffen - Ein Berg wechselt den Besitzer
Über die Entwaffnung der YBS, die ungeklärte Zukunft einer verwundeten Gemeinschaft und die Verantwortung von Bagdad, Erbil und Ankara
Es gibt Orte, an denen sich die Geschichte eines Volkes verdichtet. Der Berg von Shingal ist ein solcher Ort. Im August 2014 flohen Zehntausende Ezidinnen und Eziden vor den Mördern des sogenannten Islamischen Staates auf seine Hänge, ohne Wasser, ohne Schatten, mit Kindern, die unterwegs starben und am Wegrand begraben wurden. Wer mit Überlebenden arbeitet, weiß, dass dieser Berg in ihrer Erinnerung Zuflucht und Grab zugleich ist. Er hat sie gerettet, und er hat sie sterben sehen....

Kurdish students in Hasakah, Syria, were attacked today while protesting for the right to study and use their #mothertongue. Mostly masked men reportedly threw stones and beat demonstrators.
The protesters were demanding official recognition of the #Kurdish language, which is currently limited to three classes per week under Damascus-approved regulations.

ليس كل ما نراه يستحق أن نعلّق عليه. في أحد المجالس، امتنعت عن التعليق على حديث لم يعجبني، ثم اكتشفت أن صمتي جنّبني خلافًا لم يكن سيضيف شيئًا لأحد. ليس كل رأي صحيح يحتاج إلى إعلان.

My take: The strongest position is often the one that gives you the freedom to wait.
When you aren't desperate for an outcome, you can afford to be selective about your next move.

Men judge generally more by the eye than by the hand, for everyone can see and few can feel.
Every one sees what you appear to be, few really know what you are.
