Someone Else's War
- when your child joins the war against
Isis
Video The Guardian 5 April 2019
To date at least 20 British nationals,
some with no previous experience of combat,
have travelled to Syria to fight Isis on the frontline.
Eight of these Brits have lost their lives.
This film follows the journeys of parents
as they investigate why their children went out
to join the Kurdish army in their fight against Isis,
including visiting the places they died in Syria.
What led these young Brits to risk everything,
travelling thousands of miles from home
to wage war against the world’s
most feared terrorist organisation,
fighting someone else’s war?

The Guardian 15 July
2015
Islamic State left Macer Gifford angry and disgusted.
Like many in the UK,
as he watched Isis grow in power
during 2014.
But unlike most other Britons,
he decided to leave his job
and fly to Syria
to join the fight on the ground.
He argues that the British government
has let down the people of Syria and Iraq,
and calls for them to increase bombing raids
and further arm the resistance.

The Historic Scale of Syria’s Refugee Crisis
USA
2013
Photographs by LYNSEY ADDARIO
The Syrian refugee crisis has exploded
from about 270,000 people a year ago
to today’s tally of more than two million
who have fled the country.
The pace of the diaspora
has been characterized
by the United
Nations as the worst
since the Rwandan genocide in 1994.
In addition,
an estimated 4.25 million Syrians
have been
displaced within their country,
bringing the total number forced into flight
to more than six million.

If It Were My Home
The headlines tell a lot about the crisis in Yemen:
internal strife, evacuations of international aid workers,
Saudi Arabian airstrikes.
But you may have one very basic question
that you can't easily find an answer for:
How big is Yemen,
anyway?
You can look at maps
and check out Wikipedia
but wouldn't it be great
to just to slap an outline of Yemen
on top of a map of the United States
to get a sense of its size?
IfItWereMyHome.com
lets you do just that.
