  • A few months ago I had the privilege of being able to enter and see parts of western Syria. We went to see a few of the country’s major cities and ancient historical sights. Our trip was very emotionally challenging but also beautiful in many ways. Meeting Syrians, hearing their stories and capturing a small part of what the country looks like today was not a simple goal but one I hope you will enjoy joining me on. Sending lots of love to all of the Syrians of the world. Thank you for welcoming me and teaching me about your culture.
    Thanks Ghaidaa for the best tour I could have possibly been on. If you want to follow her stories or travel with her, follow her on instagram at / ghaidaa_the_guide .
    Thank you Touma for helping me capture this trip! He has just released a video about what living in Syria is like, so please go watch it here ( • A Day in My Life in Syria ) and follow his Instagram / toumabittar .
    Thanks Fadi for opening so many doors for us to be able to see parts of the country few have been able to for a long time. Check his work out here: / fadiassigt

    • @adonia8508
      @adonia8508 Před rokem +134

      I'm sorry, but the people of the West, especially the Americans, are as responsible for the war in the Middle East as their government. How can you keep quiet about the atrocity that has happened in the Middle East? Not being curious or completely indifferent to your own country's policies in war zones means you approve of what they are doing or you just don't care about the future of these people or this country you don't even know. How many Americans could locate Iraq or Syria on a map? How many Americans could explain the country's religious differences, its past, the reasons why there are conflicts? Rare...and yet the Wikileaks affair proved that the US got involved in this war for economic reasons only. The irony is that Julien Assange is convicted for wanting to speak the truth and Bush/Obama end their lives quietly without any problems. You are as much responsible (the western people) not because you agree, I know that the majority do not agree with their decisions, but because you do not give a damn about this region, that you keep silent and that you see this population as terrorists when they are the main victims of these religious extremists.

But me and my 2 cousins just ran inside cuz we were outside playing soccer ( i saw the cars ) and just ran inside and started laughing cuz it happens like every month. There food there is soooo good though like if you go there and go to a place called Divino or Chocolake, you will have the best food you have ever tasted.

Unfortunately he was captured by Daesh, tortured to disclose the location of the artifacts - which he didn't do - and publicly beheaded. He is the protector of Palmyra and part of the reason, why there's still some left. Bless his soul, may he find peace and watch over Palmyra from where he is now.

      If this youtuber didn't not take a permission from the dictatorship regime, he wouldn't been able to enter the country, thats why he never mentioned the regime’s crimes against its people when they demanded freedom. Unfortunately, there are a lot of scum on CZcams and social media who promote visiting the country that was destroyed because of the mafia regime who killed and tortured people in prisons (search about Qaisar photos on internet).
      This regime killed journalists were trying to tell the true story of the Syrians, and bombed cities with chemical weapons, and all this is documented on the Internet, and everyone knows that the problem of the Syrians is not only ISIS or al-Qaeda because the leaders of these terrorist groups were in Syrian prisons and they were released to give a wrong image about the Syrian revolution. The problem of the Syrians is the head of the mafia who inherited power from his father And he wants to pass it to his mentally handicapped son.
      I just wonder how this youtuber would sleep after this disgraceful video he made to polish the image of the regime and promote coming to a country that even its people do not want to return to as long as the asshole Assad who murdered his own people is still in power!
      The girl who accompanied him on the trip said about the place which the protests against the dictator's regime started: "From here the problems started." but she didn't say that there were peaceful protesters there and were faced by guns.. she doesn't want to go back to her neighbourhood because she would remember the frightening thing that happened there, and she did not mention that Bashar al-Assad besieged her neighbourhood and starved civilians because they rose up against his oppression. You can search on internet about "the Siege of Yarmouk camp"
      Bashar Assad is the one whom destroyed the city of Palmyra and stole its antiquities in order to take revenge on the city because its people rose up against his oppression, so he sent ISIS and cooperated with them to loot the antiquities, and all of this is documented on the Internet.
      The Syrian regime is the one who bombed schools and destroyed hospitals over children heads in Homs and all the Syrian cities with the support of Iran, Hezbollah and Russia, but unfortunately all these information were ignored in this cheap video!!
      I am from Daraa, the last city that was visited in this video “Busra” I'm a former detainee and now I live in Europe. I witnessed the massacres that the regime committed in my city against my people before ISIS was existed.. and I will never return to Syria before Bashar al-Assad is killed. like me, there are 12 millions of Syrians refugees all over the world.
      To those who believed these kind of videos and started thinking to visit this country before the fall of the ruling mafia.. "you are considered as supporters of the mafia, and the Syrians will never ever forgive you".

I am proud of being Palestinian, Syrian and Swedish.
    The sad thing about Damascus is that some people have it so good and some people just on the other side of the city are getting killed or are starving and are poor.

    I am from Iraq living in Sweden, but I have travelled to Syria when I was young before the war started and I can say Syria was so beautiful. I remember going on a road trip to different cities in Syria with my family and relatives. We travelled in a van and saw so many things, the nature, waterfalls straight out of a disney story and Bedouins (people living in the deserts). Although my memory is not clear from then because it was about 12 years ago I remember so clearly the time we went to an outdoor restaurant around mountains and greenery. It was so beautiful words cannot describe it, it had a river going through the restaurant and the comfort I felt there was unreal. There was an old man with a tabla (a kind of drum) and all the kids were singing with him and having fun. Syria was full of liveliness and laughter.
    I cried so many times while watching this, it felt personal even though I am from Iraq and not Syria. It breaks my heart how the media view us from the middle east, but I hope more people will see this side of Syria and the whole middle east. Behind every war, trashy governments and politicians we are still humans just like everyone on this planet, we are just people trying to live and exist. Aside from that like said in the video, we from the middle east have hope for a brighter and better future. I hope one day I am able to contribute to rebuilding the middle east for its people, traditions and culture.
    Thank you so much Yes Theory for showing a side of the middle east many people have not seen, you are making a much needed change by doing this.

    I hope this channel never ends and keeps spreading knowledge and truth. From the tour guides, the mosques, shops, schools, destroyed monuments, delicious food, and kind citizens everything is just amazing and indescribable. I had Syrian friends and I can really sense the sadness and the depression they feel when they remember the destruction of their home country. Yet, they still find ways to smile.

    I had the privilege of going back to Aleppo last year, after 7 years of living abroad in the New Jersey. It was the best thing that ever happened to me. My life changed for the better and it started a cultural revival in me after years of pretending I was “American.” Leaving your ethnic country at the age of 14 and going to a first world country really messes you up mentally. For years I felt like I was a citizen of nowhere because I pushed every bit of Syria out of me when I first left. People think America fixes all your problems, and it might in some ways, but it also installs new ones, like this identity crisis that made me depressed and hit rock bottom. I’ve never had financial problems, and I’m thankful for that, so I’m not going to sit here and tell you I’ve had it the hardest. But I guarantee you most if not all Syrians who left will tell you they feel empty. It hits harder mentally than it does materialistically
    Seeing my family after these years was also scary. I thought they’re going to judge me and make me feel out of place, but I was disproven constantly as they welcomed me with open arms and we all became best friends again. The feeling of going to your aunt’s house to chat with her and have lemonade just doesn’t exist abroad. The pride that you get from looking at all these amazing landmarks, mosques, etc. is just not the same through a screen. I finally realized that Syrian hospitality is in my blood and I’m so happy for my rediscovery. I’m going back next year and I’m planning on staying for several months, and I could not be more excited
    wow this was long lol

    • @chippychin
      @chippychin Před rokem +26

      It was long, but I very much appreciate your words. What you feel makes total sense. A major root problem in America is the lack of connection to our ancestors and any kind of history or culture beyond 200 years. We come from everywhere and nowhere. Our roots are shallow and soaked in blood. For many the Americas are just one big identity crisis. Hold onto what you have, what you spoke off. It's a beautiful gift that your parents and ancestors have given you. A place to truly call Home.

    The amount of time, planning, effort, and determination to just fly down and arrive in Syria is beyond admirable on its own. But to produce a masterpiece. To capture so many emotions, moments, and history that the world is yet to even discover. To share stories of human beings who are living in pain, heart ache, yet have so much patience, so much positivity and will power to spread love to a stranger that is an outcast in a country that has lost everything. The strangers still choose to share their love, their time, their food. This documentary that is so well put together, is the epitome that anyone in the world that has a roof above their heads, electricity and a stable job should count their blessings on their hands and to think twice before complaining about non-sense, and to thank god and to be grateful for every day you wake up to see your family, neighbours and the echoes of children running and playing in the schools down your road. God bless every one of you in the video shared and to who ever is reading. Tell your family you love them. Smile at all the simple things in life that we are so blessed to witness. Be grateful for all the memories we have the privilege to create in countries who give you the opportunity too.

      I remember how it started - usual anti - government protests , escalation , different Islamic and terrorist groups get involved supported and armed by guess who ?, than IS. IS become a real thret . - so US. , Turkey , KURDS get heavily involved and Russia on the side of the legitimate Syrian government . The US. is still controlling the oil rich part and stealing the oil . Its wel known who is behind these so called revolutions - Belarus, Syria, Egypt, Ukraine , Libya, and few other places .
