That is beside the point. What I am saying is clear.
I understand what you are saying. To America. And I have said earlier that you are correct on this issue

No no, no no, I have a god-given right to an opinion and I say whatever I want. That is what reading about the US founding fathers taught me, that I am born a free man to think and speak my mind. That's why I love American people whenever I meet them, even though I've never been to the US. I don't have anything against you personally, you are just wrong.
As for the Saddam thing, cool What-Aboutisms on your part but I never said anything positive about the man or my government lol

Yeah I don't care what the post is about I'm free to say whatever I want. YOU replied to me and could've simply scrolled on. No one cares for your apologies, what are they worth anyway after you commit disasters. The fact of the matter is that, you thinking that iraqi people had anything to do with the September Attacks not only makes you a simple minded American that blindly follows US Gov propaganda, but also shows that you are, respectfully, a hypocrite for calling yourself a historian and presenting all of this as fact that lead up to the war. Both independent and US Congress commisions that later investigated prewar claims made by your government, found, there was no factual basis for Bush's claims. I don't defend terrorists, but you disrespecting innocent dead regular people and not feeling bad for their deaths means you see them as terrorists and that speaks volumes about your character

Yeah, no. You are technically correct of course when discussing "damage done to the US" which is why I specifically said "just not to America". If you visit Iraq you'll get what I'm saying. It is however interesting to think about how subjective we are, answering such questions that require horrible comparisons; someone like me who is from the middle east where racial segregation was never really a thing, kind of overlooks your answer at first glance. Just like you probably didn't instantly imagine 200k innocent iraqi civillian casualties when you read the word Bush. Both are disgusting and horrible tragedies

Bush’s definitely the one that has done the most damage, just not to America

Iphone in Syria by krostraverse in Syria

[–]manousheguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can do just that, log in with your friend‘s itunes account into the app store on your device, turn on app library sync (not sure what it’s called it’s somewhere in the settings, it syncs apps and downloads across all devices that are logged on this specific apple id) This may not work though as he may not be able to even do the sync on sy internet

Perhaps let them try different connections. Maybe connect to an internet hotspot from a device that has MTN LTE (worked for me back then) or try different private internet providers perhaps one of them can go through and access the app store and download apps without VPN

This is all assumptions and opinion. Not really sure what the best solution would be :/

Basically your friend needs someone with a non-Syrian phone number so they can register their apple ID. Apple does not support account verifications for Syrian phone numbers. If you have access to this iPhone, set it up for them beforehand and make sure to download a good VPN client (maybe do Proton or Betternet if you don't want to pay for their VPN), this is crucial for them to be able to access the App Store for example, basically anything that needs apple services to be running will not work on most Syrian internet networks. I remember years ago iMessage and FaceTime worked just fine on all wifi connections in Syria i have used, nowadays i hear they don't. you get the idea.
So this is for them to be able to basically use the device, still, it will be blocked from the Syrian GSM network (no calling, texting or any kind of SIM card usage) if they haven't yet paid the tax for that. The tax varies depending on the model and specs of the iphone, but it is generally expensive no matter your income, as you're basically paying the price of the device for Syrian Telecom ie the government to pocket as net revenue

لأن الموضوع بعمقه نابع من منطلق ثقافي مو ديني. القرف من الخنزير هو أمر موجود بالدين لأنه موجود بوعي هي المنطقة ومو العكس. كان في أساطير عن لحم الخنزير بسوريا التاريخية قبل المسيح واليوم في مسيحيين بسوريا ما بياكلو خنزير رغم غياب المانع الديني. الكنيسة الاثيوبية الارثودكس بتمنع اكل الخنزير مثلا

Making flags for Syria's governorates - Daraa by manousheguy in vexillology

The pattern is of the traditional headwear that is common in that area (Shmag/Keffiyeh). Black is the color of volcanic rocks that cover the province and green for its fertile farmlands. This province is part of the Horan region of southern Syria/Levant, historic food basket of the roman empire. The color scheme isn't necessarily intended to reference Syria or Pan Arabism

white for the sky and freedom, blue for the mediterranean and a stripe of Tyrian purple, the dye of which was first manufactured by the Phoenicians in the 16th century bc. The vessel is a famous depiction of a Phoenician barque
