I think he left Damascus before homs fell.
The military didn’t really seem like they wanted to fight for a dictator that already abdicated his throne.
I think we just get to wait and see. 🙈
I have no idea. It was titled something like “rebels take over Damascus airport”. Then I went on flight radar and saw the airplane taking off with no destination set.
I can’t verify how “real” it is other than I saw it on social media right before that airplane took off and saved it. Everything today moved pretty quickly.
Personally I don’t think Assad was on that flight.

Sorry I don’t remember the original source but here’s the video. https://files.catbox.moe/2n2y9q.mp4
I watched that live. The video from the airport a few minutes before was surreal.
Mod handled that super poorly and doubled down on being wrong… Honestly it’s a master class on what not to do.
If you are banned from blahaj (or any other instance) your posts here will not federate on that instance. The refederation applies to the community not individual users or CDRMITTENS. That would need to be addressed by them with the other Lemmy instances admin team.
So to be clear if you use blahaj to view ncd you will still not see posts by CDRMITTENS until he appeals his ban with them.
Talking with ada this seemed to be a poorly handled miscommunication. Ada and her mod team are not selectively removing our content but they have banned some of our more active posters and this is the source of the original drama.
I say sneak in a NATO flag as well.
Neat

I like how they added a 5% tax the government didn’t even need to ask for.

I’ve been wondering when Russia would take the gloves off and send in Segal. I guess after the government collapsed.
