ORSAM SU ORSAM ARAŞTIRMALARI WATER PROGRAMI RESEARCH www.orsam.org.tr/tr/ PROGRAMME STRATEGIC INFORMATION MANAGEMENT AND INDEPENDENT THOUGHT PRODUCTION ORSAM CENTER FOR MIDDLE EASTERN STRATEGIC STUDIES CENTER FOR MIDDLE EASTERN STRATEGIC STUDIES History In Turkey, the shortage of research on the Middle East grew more conspicuous than ever during the early 90’s. Center for Middle Eastern Strategic Studies (ORSAM) was established in Janu- ary 1, 2009 in order to provide relevant information to the general public and to the foreign policy community. The institute underwent an intensive structuring process, beginning to con- centrate exclusively on Middle Eastern affairs. Outlook on the Middle Eastern World It is certain that the Middle East harbors a variety of interconnected problems. However, ne- ither the Middle East nor its people ought to be stigmatized by images with negative connota- tions. Given the strength of their populations, Middle Eastern states possess the potential to activate their inner dynamics in order to begin peaceful mobilizations for development. Respect for people’s willingness to live together, respect for the sovereign right of states and respect for basic human rights and individ- ual freedoms are the prerequisites for assuring peace and tranquility, both domestically and interna- tionally. In this context, Turkey must continue to make constructive contributions to the establishment of regional stability and prosperity in its vicinity. ORSAM’s Think-Tank Research ORSAM provides the general public and decision-making organizations with enlightening in- for- mation about international politics in order to promote a healthier understanding of interna- tional policy issues and to help them to adopt appropriate positions. In order to present effective solutions, ORSAM supports high quality research by intellectuals and researchers that are com- petent in a variety of disciplines. ORSAM’s strong publishing capacity transmits meticulous analyses of regional developments and trends to the relevant parties. With its website, books, reports, and periodicals, ORSAM supports the development of Middle Eastern literature on a national and international scale. ORSAM facilitates the sharing of knowledge and ideas with the Turkish and international communi- ties by inviting statesmen, bureaucrats, academicians, strategists, businessmen, journalists, and NGO representatives to Turkey. * ORSAM is a member of the The Middle East Studies Association (MESA). www.orsam.org.tr/en/ Kapak Konusu / Cover Story #56!

SYRIAN ARAB REPUBLIC, c/o Foreign Minister Walid al-Mualem Ministry of Foreign Affairs Kafar Soussa, Damascus, Syria Defendant. COMPLAINT Plaintiffs Cathleen Colvin and Justine Araya-Colvin allege as follows: INTRODUCTION 1. On February 22, 2012, Marie Colvin, an American reporter hailed by many of her peers as the greatest war correspondent of her generation, was assassinated by Syrian government agents as she reported on the suffering of civilians in Homs, Syria—a city beseiged by Syrian military forces. Acting in concert and with premeditation, Syrian officials deliberately killed Marie Colvin by launching a targeted rocket attack against a makeshift broadcast studio in the Baba Amr neighborhood of Homs where Colvin and other civilian journalists were residing and reporting on the siege. 2. The rocket attack was the object of a conspiracy formed by senior members of the regime of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad (the “Assad regime”) to surveil, target, and ultimately kill civilian journalists in order to silence local and international media as part of its effort to crush political opposition.

  • How the Assad Regime Tracked and Killed Marie Colvin for Reporting on War Crimes in Syria Photo: AFP/Getty Images
    TARGET: JOURNALIST How the Assad Regime Tracked and Killed Marie Colvin for Reporting on War Crimes in Syria Photo: AFP/Getty Images Johnny Dwyer, Ryan Gallagher April 9 2018, 7:49 a.m. It is a horrifying artifact of our digital era: a jumpy 18-minute-and-49- second cellphone video of a Skype call. Glimpses of an Arabic-language keyboard and laptop screen can be seen as the audio plays through tinny speakers. We hear panicked shouts in Arabic, the crack of explosions finding their way closer, a woman’s voice shouting. A man yells in English: “I’m hit! I need a tourniquet on my leg. I can’t move.” The video captures the frantic final moments of journalists Marie Colvin and Rémi Ochlik. The two were struck by a rocket on the morning of February 22, 2012, in the neighborhood of Baba Amr in Homs, Syria. It was the beginning of that country’s civil war, which has now stretched into seven years of devastating violence. In federal court in Washington, D.C., on Monday, the video was submitted as a key piece of evidence in a lawsuit accusing the Syrian government of targeting and murdering Colvin, a U.S. citizen raised on Long Island, as she sought to cover the war. The Colvin family filed the video and nearly 2,000 pages of documents, including military intelligence memoranda and testimony from Syrian defectors, as part of a federal civil lawsuit against the Syrian government. The documents provide detailed and unprecedented evidence to support the claim that Colvin was deliberately hunted and killed as part of a policy by the Assad regime to eliminate journalists.

    SYRIE Chronologie 5 avril 2016 Chronologie du conflit dans la province et la ville de Homs, de mars 2011 à mars 2016 Résumé Cette chronologie recense les principales offensives menées sur la ville de Homs et sa province (la plus vaste de Syrie, s’étendant de la frontière avec le Liban à celle avec l’Irak) de mars 2011 à mars 2016. Parmi celles-ci : les manifestations pacifiques débutant en 2011 ; le siège du quartier de Baba Amr dans la ville de Homs en 2012, et sa reprise aux rebelles par le régime ; ou la perte de la ville de Palmyre à l’Etat Islamique (EI) par les forces pro-régime en 2015, suivie de sa reconquête en 2016. Abstract This chronology, which does not aim to be comprehensive, compiles the key military developments in the city of Homs and its province (Syria’s largest, stretching from the Lebanese to the Iraqi borders) from March 2011 to March 2016, including: the peaceful demonstrations from 2011 onwards; the siege of the neighbourhood of Baba Amr in the city of Homs in 2012, and its reconquest by pro-regime forces; and the regime’s loss of the city of Palmyra in 2015 to Islamic State (IS), followed by its recapture by pro-regime forces in 2016.

  • Lettre Juin 2012 Version Anglaise
    N°106 June 2012 Unavoidably, given the crisis, finance is taking a bigger and bigger place in managing public broadcasting. Two examples from the beginning of June: the appointment of a new chairperson at RAI (Italy) and at RTVE (Spain), respectively Anna Maria Tarantola and Leopoldo Gonzalez Echenique : two figures from finance and business, both managers, able to juggle between budget cuts and balancing accounts, while continuing to maintain the quality level of their programme schedules. Directors and producers also face a lack of means, but there are some new solutions for them. As from this month Euromed Audiovisuel offers a co-production guide aimed at film-makers in the southern Mediterranean. Everywhere on the web the business of "crowd-funding " is growing, the idea that the general public can directly finance films in production. And new funding methods are being put in place, as at the FPCA ( Fonds Panafricain pour le Cinéma et l'Audiovisuel ). Also in this issue, all the usual items, with a focus on the Ismaïlia Festival , an assessment of Cannes 2012 , the winner of the URTI International Grand Prix for Creative Documentary , and a glimpse of Web Series TV , first platform for web-series from the whole world.

  • Protecting the Rights of Journalists and the Freedom of Media
    MUNiSC General Assembly 2 Protecting the Rights of Journalists and the Freedom of Media Forum: General Assembly 2 Student Officer: Ethan Young-Gun Choe, Deputy President Introduction Human rights are the fundamental rights and freedoms that belong to every person in the world from birth until death. These rights apply to everyone, regardless of ethnicity, background, religion, etc. The 19th Article in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights states "Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression, seeking and receiving information and ideas through any media." Knowing the truth is crucial for all aspects of life. The society relies on journalists to provide us with accurate information to recognize and address contemporary issues in the world. Journalists are human beings trying to report accurate news to the world. Threatening journalists and not allowing them to carry out their rightful work is a clear violation of their human rights. Background At the Charlie Hebd office in 2015, nine journalists were killed in a suicide bombing, and another journalist was killed in a shooting in Kabul, Afghanistan. In addition, 20 more innocent lives of citizens were taken away, along with many more seriously injured. The AFP chief executive Fabrice Fries noted that the Nine Journalists and one journalist killed in Afghanistan tragedy reminds the danger that the journalist team is continually facing. Still, more importantly, it is threatening the cornerstone of democracy: journalists. The cause of the tragedy was a bomber disguised as a TV cameraman who installed a bomb at the site. Journalist casualties have been a growing trend simply because of the work they do since 1990.

Unfortunately, the number of journalists, intellectuals and artists killed this year overshadows the relative improvement of most press and cultural freedom indicators, which include a decrease in cases of physical assaults, arrests and censorship decisions. However, the number of those killed is more than five times the death toll of 2011.
