  • At Least 223 Massacres Documented in Syria in 2018
    At Least 223 Massacres Documented in Syria in 2018 Including Four Massacres in December Saturday, January 5, 2019 1 snhr [email protected] www.sn4hr.org M190107 The Syrian Network for Human Rights (SNHR), founded in June 2011, is a non-governmental, independent group that is considered a primary source for the OHCHR on all death toll-related analyses in Syria. Contents I. Introduction and Methodology II. December Outline III. Executive Summary IV. Details of the Most Notable Massacres in December V. Details of the Most Notable Massacres in 2018 VI. Conclusions and Recommendations I. Introduction and Methodology Since the popular uprising for freedom began in Syria in March 2011, SNHR has taken it upon itself to document the wide range of violations being perpetrated daily against the Syrian people, such as killing, enforced-disappearance, arbitrary arrest, destruction, indis- criminate bombardment, and torture, with SNHR shedding light on the most notable viola- tions it has recorded as being committed by the parties to the conflict in Syria in hundreds of reports. The Syrian regime, and its militias, were the only perpetrators of violations at the start of the popular uprising, and remain the main perpetrators to date, with the Syrian regime being re- sponsible for the majority of violations. Subsequently, other parties have emerged gradually such as the armed opposition, extremist Islamic groups, Democratic Union Party forces, international coalition forces, and Russian forces. The first two years of the popular uprising saw the largest proportion of massacres of an ethnic and sectarian nature, with the Syrian regime and its militias being responsible for the majority of these massacres.

  • The Latin Principality of Antioch and Its Relationship with the Armenian Kingdom of Cilicia, 1188-1268 Samuel James Wilson
    The Latin Principality of Antioch and Its Relationship with the Armenian Kingdom of Cilicia, 1188-1268 Samuel James Wilson A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Nottingham Trent University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy March 2016 1 Copyright Statement This work is the intellectual property of the author.

This thesis offers the first full assessment of the thirteenth century principality of Antioch since the publication of Claude Cahen’s La Syrie du nord à l’époque des croisades et la principauté franque d’Antioche in 1940. It examines the Latin principality from its devastation by Saladin in 1188 until the fall of Antioch eighty years later, with a particular focus on its relationship with the Armenian kingdom of Cilicia. This thesis shows how the fate of the two states was closely intertwined for much of this period. The failure of the principality to recover from the major territorial losses it suffered in 1188 can be partly explained by the threat posed by the Cilician Armenians in the late twelfth and early thirteenth centuries.

  • The Second Crusade, 1145-49: Damascus, Lisbon and the Wendish Campaigns
    The Second Crusade, 1145-49: Damascus, Lisbon and the Wendish Campaigns Abstract: The Second Crusade (1145-49) is thought to have encompassed near simultaneous Christian attacks on Muslim towns and cities in Syria and Iberia and pagan Wend strongholds around the southern shore of the Baltic Sea. The motivations underpinning the attacks on Damascus, Lisbon and – taken collectively – the Wendish strongholds have come in for particular attention. The doomed decision to assault Damascus in 1148 rather than recover Edessa, the capital of the first so-called crusader state, was once thought to be ill-conceived. Historians now believe the city was attacked because Damascus posed a significant threat to the Latin kingdom of Jerusalem when the Second Crusaders arrived in the East. The assault on Lisbon and the Wendish strongholds fell into a long-established pattern of regional, worldly aggression and expansion; therefore, historians tend not to ascribe any spiritual impulses behind the native Christians’ decisions to attack their enemies. Indeed, the siege of Lisbon by an allied force of international crusaders and those of the Portuguese ruler, Afonso Henriques, is perceived primarily as a politico-strategic episode in the on-going Christian-Muslim conflict in Iberia – commonly referred to as the reconquista. The native warrior and commercial elite undoubtedly had various temporal reasons for engaging in warfare in Iberia and the Baltic region between 1147 and 1149, although the article concludes with some notes of caution before clinically construing motivation from behaviour in such instances. On Christmas Eve 1144, Zangī, the Muslim ruler of Aleppo and Mosul, seized the Christian-held city of Edessa in Mesopotamia.

  • The Byzantine Emperor John II's Syrian Expeditions And
    論 文 オ リエ ン ト 49-2(2006):70-90 ヨ ハ ン ネ ス2世 の シ リ ア 遠 征 と ザ ン ギ ー の 南 進 策 ―12世紀 前半 シ リアの勢力構図の変動― The Byzantine Emperor John II's Syrian Expeditions and Zangi's Strategy for Southern Syria: The Change in the Balance of Power which Syria Experienced in the First Half of the Twelfth Century 中 村 妙 子 NAKAMURA Taeko ABSTRACT The Byzantine emperor John II made Syrian expeditions twice, in the 1130s and 1140s. From the beginning of the twelfth century, the Syrian cities and the Crusader States preserved the balance of power through economic agreements and military alliances. However, Zangi, ruler of Aleppo, refused to maintain this balance-of-power policy and started to advance southward in Syria to recover lost territories from the Crusaders and obtain farmland which was under Damascus' rule. John carried out his expedition at this time. John compelled Raymond of Poitiers, the consort of the heiress of Antioch, to become his liege vassal. John and Raymond agreed that Raymond would hand Antioch over to John in return for cities, currently in Muslim hands, which John would capture leading a joint Byzantine-Cru- sader army. But Raymond had John attack cities whose power Raymond himself wanted to reduce. Also, as the nobility of Antioch, who had come from south Italy, had influence over Raymond, John could not appoint a Greek Orthodox cleric as patriarch of Antioch. Furthermore, an encyclical issued by Pope Innocent II stating that all Latins serving in the Byzantine army were forbidden to attack Christians in Crusader States, forced John to reduce his claims on Antioch, being conscious of the West's eyes.

  • 'King John's Irish REX Coinage Revisited. Part II: the Symbolism Of
    KING JOHN’S IRISH REX COINAGE REVISITED. PART II: THE SYMBOLISM OF THE COINAGE D.W. DYKES Fig. 1. Engravings of the REX coinage of John illustrating the reverse estoile and crescent of the penny, cross and crescent of the halfpenny and estoile of the farthing. The farthing legends are transposed. (Penny reproduced from Sainthill 1844, Pl. 10; halfpenny and farthing from Simon 1749, Pl. 2.) PART I of this paper, published in the last volume of the Journal, was concerned with the dat- ing of King John’s Irish REX coinage.1 This second part explores the coinage’s symbolism. Although this is a subject that has intrigued antiquaries and numismatists for the past three centuries its treatment has in its nature been highly speculative since there is no contemporary testimony to throw any light on the significance of the imagery; indeed, the most one can hope to achieve is an informed guess at what was intended. What immediately catches the eye in Fig. 1 (above) is the triangle that is the prominent fea- ture of both the obverse and reverse of each of the three denominations of the coinage. The earliest authorities such as Sir James Ware and Bishop Nicholson believed that it represented a harp.2 By John Lindsay’s time, however, such an interpretation had fallen into disfavour although there was little agreement as to an alternative, some believing that it referred to the presumed geographical outline of Ireland. Lindsay himself came to accept Richard Sainthill’s view that the triangle was an emblem of the Trinity, an argument that Sainthill thought was strengthened by the presence of the cosmic symbols on the coinage’s reverse that he regarded, not implausibly, as having religious significance.3 James Simon, a century earlier, had come to the more prosaic view that the triangle was intended simply to distinguish the Irish coinage from that of England.

  • SITUATION REPORT Hawala Registration in Idleb Governorate
    HUMANITARIAN ACCESS TEAM (HAT) SITUATION REPORT Hawala Registration in Idleb Governorate JUNE 15, 2017 Executive Summary Since mid-May 2017, Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham has taken several noteworthy steps toward regulating the hawala sector in northwestern Syria. These actions could pose a significant challenge to international and local humanitarian organizations implementing projects in northwestern Syria due to potential donor-compliance issues related to Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham. This report provides a brief overview of the hawala market in northwestern Syria, a summary of the steps that Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham has recently taken to establish control over this sector, an analysis of the goals of Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham recent actions, and an assessment of the immediate impact with respect to the hawala market. On May 9, Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham attempted to formally regulate the hawala industry in Idleb by establishing a new governing body, the General Institution for Cash Management and Customer Protection, and demanding that hawalas in northwest Syria register and pay associated fees. Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham’s attempt was initially unsuccessful; few hawala agents in northwestern Syria accepted Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham’s new regulations. Subsequently, Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham waived all fees, and as a compromise, hawala agents in Idleb governorate registered with Hay’at Tahrir Al- Sham. This regulatory initiative occurred shortly after multiple large-scale fluctuations in the USD-SYP exchange rate, the consequence of a substantial cash infusion into opposition-controlled Idleb in mid-April as a part of the Foah and Kefraya evacuation negotiations.
