banners and songs and the deep desire for freedom. with god. in him and also. in the name and. connect on a new low. syria has been ruled by a dictatorship handed down from father to son since ninety seven. the regime denies its people basic freedoms it is controlling and often merciless. or for. those who have a. look at what. some sort of sentiment. is that.

the regime silenced the revolution and the country was in. fighter jets tanks missiles chemical weapons. it uses all of its military might to suppress any possible uprising to maintain power it kills its own people who are forced into exile to survive. from hype about. in secret. the syrian regime uses another less spectacular weapon the same fearsome.

early days of placing in twenty of the secret police has resorted to mass arrests of those who dared to defy the regime. have disappeared for years and. never return. for years this invisible weapon of the syrian dictatorship. almost four hundred thousand syrians have taken refuge in the city of gaziantep since the outbreak of the fighting. the chaos that ravages their homeland is barely fifty kilometers away. how do you begin to talk about your own government's atrocities when you're still living in fear. those who reveal their identities are

a few but they are still determined to overcome the terror instilled by the regime . and. about us. and around me and i look at them and. i want to. be human. to the can in a static. and . long. as. muslim i have a mission and no one can at another lend us and a gun. to. my kids and he. had to look into small nest and deduce of the. little town on the central one in motion.

comes from the town of near damascus. under siege twenty twelve it's one of the towns that has been most affected by the violence. throughout the country syrians have been documenting the day to day repression by their will. in twenty eleven these videos were the only way to expose to the rest of the world what was happening inside syria the regime had closed its borders to many foreign journalists amateur videos flooded the internet. they've now become precious archives of history like this one filmed in damascus in november twentieth eleven.

the secret. in action. no one dare even mention them. it instills immediate fear. in this police state it's well known when they take people away they will disappear. little bit and try hard a lot all. he has banned they must hold if he must have houses mr cornell can live with us here. or in them. but i think that the press can the best of us for her because he thought about. going at it as it fell i kind of was modeled on the.

but the mob the me the on the south email us flooded. senate and one of the when the headless possum domiciled on the modesty. and thought of something and i think. i'll have to if the. seat but what i don't know why it was annoyed when we can mean the club out at the show we put them at the. time so shoot that if in the boss. car or uniform the regimes secret police carry out random and targeted arrests. this video was filmed by a member of the secret police during a raid on a village square in northern syria in may twenty twelve.

and i can. metaphor and we. can kind of wish. lists for what. had just gotten my mom found. me i know what. miranda for. was a hush and the whole shebang at. one of my dining i'm going to shoot. an innocent. addition. and sort of sentiment that i'm election. letterman for them unfortunately. and the more either of us. oh you can bet that you must have and i was on the last one i had that one had the feeling. i had the ammunition.

throughout the middle east to be syrian secret police is not moreas for its intelligence gathering technique. high ranking officers who have defected trying to keep out of the media they know only too well the system of terror they were part off for so many years. a former chief of the so-called political security a branch of the domestic intelligence service speaks out for the very first time. and you can watch a. movie. or much of that and you were in the very place of the study is that of course he would do it. would do it

knows about the thousands of people being illegally detained in their country. in almost every city still under the control of the region there may be one or several detention center in. damascus the capital has the largest number of them there are roadblocks everywhere controlled by the secret police the army or armed militias. that intimate of the human. mind about a first sale and available. for on a donor what we can feel good limited shops. that are few. and what i think joy of a duck to water. beside him to his meat much to consider what the causes are

not on how you act that one couple's daughter must. feel what he said. or even believe that. over two hundred thousand people. by the syrian. secretly held in police stations army bases and. and warehouses. in damascus at least ten buildings used by the secret police have been identified but many more detention centers remain unknown. air force intelligence is based at the damascus military airfield. airport a syrian. twenty thirty here. were secretly.

up and it would be a. fossil a couple of more than half of felons but the lafayette marler and does the whole hour most of the hundred and then bugged us all i'm a bitch you know so gentle i have a standby here for sonic that's what the hell argument above the bottom of that was came out of the sheep had to hear of him or the original hail or we lost our clear them a little less than they thought as has been all the water time on the deck. and the glad bags the treasure almost all before sol a professor oh yeah radar for the trouble will have come audigy you and how are the who but for be a call and who are kind of the one behind. the pm about the. play and all that.

and they want to be the above and have a little fun for fun and going home mother and i'm up how to. develop i would work as well as on the for one million and be at the if you know find what happened and my fella for old man he. and in the overcrowded. airport. he was later transferred to hospital six zero one one of the military hospitals in damascus. and. the from about.

i don't want to look that and. then i learn how. the hospital and. how they. shouldn't. have. had it happen for that i want to know bob. bob bob and i. and how the ship. for more than a million people and the most shocking. and syrian state run television their regime is presented as the defender of the people and your pointer of syria's unity. but it has used its military might against its

own population against those that chanted with hard cards on the streets in the spring of twenty eleven. the government survival is dependent on fear and intimidation. cutting bad that where you will i don't know what the ships were no idea they were that so until we had when. we had read about it it would it had a cause that in the long hit of the day long and i hope not to visit the thermometer. ask if you know a lot about that. many of those who called for peace and reconciliation have been silenced or exiled. that they know. me not to listen to us. if the man i'm

a weak yeah to me dynamic i said tricky where you are modest man. on whatever and see if we could have got it got people sort of the fossil for. what i want to let that be added but i bet a lot on the a no. because for several minutes we stumble upon my meeting with the early. that and them and i'm at the through it on the head as it was because in his long. i mean. formed the basis for the at the me she says i think you know most of my why don't i have presented as a if we want to talk well if i'm going on and i'll sleep

a lot are you able to you know i. was. witness documentaries that open your eyes at this time on al-jazeera. the nature of news as it breaks the last time senegal qualified for the world cup was in two thousand to fifteen years on and hope to do even better in russia next year with detailed coverage hard to imagine that only seven years ago people were living right here farming framed now the thief has taken over their land from around the world donald trump is promising a major policy announcement on trade

on the and an asian island of bali as viewing smoke up to three thousand meters into the sky body international airport remains closed canceling hundreds of flights and stranding thousands of passengers those are the headlines on al-jazeera the disappeared of syria continues next.

several weeks after vero arrival at the mystic airport detention center. and runway there kind of met a similar fate they were transferred to a prison a prison for common law fences on the outskirts of damascus they had somehow survived the black hole of the detention centers final assault on. me and i know

about it now and i have. found the one anecdotal moment. yet who are phenomenal. and. since and that it was by their hard luck. to have my novel called the immortal family say yes but rather. on a cloud and would rather than. bend and highlight the. i don't know you only can . tell us you know better about who you can't afford in. an exam that i've modeled on. but kind of what i saw you having. seen the circus of her life with her she. said mainly me and minister moshe

dayan because many of the ads will be normal that's why do you say yes and here and now can a cat know whether one of the aside from whether it was female moshe dayan so don't let us know much at all and. finish. then how. but. the first few hundred more by that. thought it. eventually appeared before an anti-terrorism court a tribe you know specially created in twenty twelve by the state. you know a smart company of a saw. them got a. lot of similar amount. and ok fine i have a process that. we have our own has a. government i have voted. for.

for tomorrow and after me how the just what i mean to be doing a very fine i would say have you know him very. have. you know far ahead. this is a hell of a hospital. yeah and you. know shows are happy to march to the grandmother and there should be looking at my hand which was you i had. you know when. you have thousands of them to me and my dear fellow i feel. the son of the sasha and we. do you know so many. how small have you.

me. yes sure sure sure we are a few. who are additional a shortlist for you know an issue for me. after i'm in with me for possibly some. other shows. fetch you. you .

yes never. i don't i was a morning call. him jimmy you saw him with you myself but he a very. mean for thought the nuns were marked and by throwing a small i know but welcome but it was sort of into second at a loss or shame. another to live for photos and see if any sort of. yeah he had

a clue not on the card climate. minister to ruin. it for the civil damages on the bill to keep barking as you all going just don't want to live with her she find it has always said very little but i would come so surveilling a number he can directly behave at that moment defense of you don't know that i was fascists in a corner of the back of the moat from the early morning i mean but then couldn't remember who is our we are is all you have a sore back in one article below shit then. last of the and what happed did you article for vitamin a happy couple and the way a perfect koan for sewer and who's on. it should be the leader of the whole world market one living at the police the problem seems to me are merely the higher authorities you're on what they know well how they implement i luckily for them the. that's ok.

the. decision it definitely. is good to see our only identifiable by numbers is the message is clear this is the fate that awaits those who dare oppose the regime. today the

syrians are working with international n.g.o.s to try and name the thousands of anonymous victims and to gather all the evidence that will one day serve as proof against the regime and in a court of law. the. scale of syria and these images is truly i mean truly shocking. you know just the sort of the numbers. and the numbers over such a short period of time. you know these photos were not taken all over syria these photos were taken mostly into medical hospitals in damascus. in the capital but in one city into medical facilities run by the military you have at least six thousand five hundred bodies identified over a period of a year and a half two years to military medical center. hospital and hospital

six are in damascus close to the presidential palace. was detained in hospital six. habitants from dead i alone appear in a ground. target is now working to identify those from his hometown didn't survive so that one day justice may be served.

here. ok. america. so you would. have a lot of.

defection of caesar and people around him give us a snapshot into one part of the process which is you know photography by military police and other security agencies for recordkeeping there's another part which is ok what used to happen to these bodies. so this is a satellite imagery. comparing changes in september two thousand and twelve at the national martyr cemetery so we can see for example. that. there were trenches that were dug up new areas so this year you can clearly see for example. there was a new trench that was. dug up by a machine and it was left and over time as you can see between november two

thousand and twelve and for every two thousand and thirteen the first trench was covered and a new trench was was dug up again this is what we can see from the satellite imagery it's not enough for us to say these many bodies were buried and that these are this is the identity of the bodies that were buried it may be a legitimate activity maybe they are burying government soldiers but it may be something else and it could be you know i don't the question i would want to ask the government is what did you do with these bodies very simple question what did you do with these thousands of bodies. god. will come in just as that that i fin which he had to shine had what i mean the more to commune with. the one who couldn't but him in the shuffle with him made him

a shield to visit me to watch how. much for the few but not that i'm just this is about what alarms me about i was called was somewhat well not nice but i must say i had a sight better. just has been how he had it out war jim i am the man how to fight them you had to shall see that he along with the whole world to my yes if you and i can recall. what he said and i can hide that i took my time for us what i also had we. had last night have any out still plumber who just. got on how they just as he or she my remarks in the long run because that to my commute. no not some long lost i could. imagine why that. old hustle ten minutes in. with the food to my left and all that.

you know when we talk about. many mice crimes in history you know when you talk about the stars eastern europe a lot of it became documented after the fight the bulldogs it was you know years later that the whole the the size of what was happening became clear the death squads in chile in argentina it took years to happen it's true today that actually we know what's happening in a way in real time. we know where these detention facilities are in many many cases we know the names of those responsible of these detention facilities and many cases we actually know exactly where the detainees are we have testimonies indicating

what happened to them. we have you know geolocation we can i don't we know how many floors how many basements how many cells and yet and yet nothing is that. the un's commission of inquiry on syria has been working for over four years to no consequence. a member of the opposition and what had been nice spend five years in prison before the revolution for calling for reforms in his homeland the renowned campaigner for human rights later fled damascus for fear of being arrested by the secret police. and the delusional.

i think that you would have. no authority. and not the sort of. syria benefits from the unwavering support of a powerful ally russia which has been openly fighting alongside the regime. the crimes of the syrian government are well known by the security council but with its veto russia blocks many resolutions against syria. and. the news that they're not the kind i want to. have but i mean what the job was. for them was there was a time of the. well to surgery.

where we now know that. higher. than just you know i'm sorry the next speaker is amnesty international yes a few. days a crisis in syria. he . the oath. had. finished. and.

while it sat on the heart of a serene home. despite all the evidence over the past few years the dictatorship continues to deny the facts on the ground. in every public you have two minutes before i say that i used. to have. any doubt about it is. that with.

this strategy of the syrian regime has shown itself to be extremely effective. despite all the kim and it still remains in power in damascus. to survive syrians have no choice but to flee into exile their homeland has been destroyed many of their families and friends have been killed or disappeared the paradise they dreamed. during the early days of the uprising has slowly faded away . for how long will the state's oppression continue how many more people will be arrested and disappear or become victim to

a regime that is not held accountable. those that it. can intimidate not to freak it did not. or a second did that but so. really what you can read about it which had a child that i shall marry if you die which is a million measures and hard. how come i mean you know that one court. that you know what he was on a plane of ok you can bash could be very unusual to mr barr could use a let me eat hot when i got it home so it. was

once in our heart to see our child like that at eight pm. the last structureless moment this alone because. along with a whole bunch of. well sort of well sort. of yep it was a long and the criminal in the middle of the obvious hiding loam i know will be along with. that if. you know. i'm not some. but man the corn you know my thumb how come i. don't i'm not saying the math at. the white house the second ask on. the subject of an honest. and in time and to

my message i'm ready. to be that commitment. and i'm. the one. when all of. us in the heart of a man well known the speech and. the hundred the last of. all meet in. a pickup and. the less often. i thought that i could so come on. top the of. the not in the house i was on the whole side of the. model hard to.
