Yasmeen Altaji gives a round-up of today's trends

In this episode of Taking It Back, hosted by Zak Paine and Adel Nero, the conversation covers the latest developments in New Jersey, where mysterious drones are causing confusion and concern. Zak and Adel explore theories, from military surveillance to UFO sightings, and the government's lack of answers. The discussion then shifts to the ongoing crisis in Syria, where the growing influence of ISIS is reshaping the region, and the broader implications for U.S. foreign policy. The episode concludes with an in-depth look at the future of American politics, the potential for political realignments, and how the current political system may be on the verge of significant changes.

With the speed at which developments in Syria are unfolding after the fall of the Assad regime, dynamics in the country and the region are in flux. One question many are asking, however, is whether a decade or so of backing elements of Syria's armed opposition is now about to pay off for Turkey and President Erdogan. Henri Barkey, an adjunct senior fellow for Middle East studies at the Council on Foreign Relations and the Cohen chair in international relations at Lehigh University, joins Thanos Davelis as we dig into this question, look at Turkey's role in Syria, and break down what's at stake for Syria's Kurds, refugees, and for the United States.You can read the articles we discuss on our podcast here:What Role Is Turkey Playing in Syria's Civil War?Erdogan Gets His ‘Leader of the Muslim World' MomentTurkey: will Erdoğan emerge as the big winner of the Syria crisis?Britain will provide intel to Cyprus to help fight Russia's sanctions evasionCyprus and the US double down on a joint effort to combat financial crimes with more trainingTrump nominates Kimberly Guilfoyle to be the new US Ambassador to GreeceAmid Rumors of a Breakup, Kimberly Guilfoyle Is Appointed Ambassador to Greece

On December 8, rebel forces stormed Damascus and ousted President Bashar al-Assad, who had been ruling Syria since 2000. Reports suggest Assad has fled to Russia, where he has sought asylum. For over 53 years, the Assad family—first Hafez, then Bashar—has governed Syria. So how did the Assads, an Alawite Shia family, a minority in Syria, maintain control in a predominantly Sunni country? Now, the question is: who will govern Syria? One potential leader is HTS chief Abu Mohammed al-Jolani. He has pledged to protect minorities and women and says he has no intentions to impose strict Islamic law. However, his complex past suggests he could shift his political stance as needed. Will al-Jolani emerge as a reformist, or will he follow a path akin to Al-Qaeda?

In an interview with UN News, Muhannad Hadi, Regional Humanitarian Coordinator for the Syria Crisis speaks about the Organization’s efforts and priorities for ordinary Syrians caught up in the brutal war that recently marked its grim, 10-year anniversary. 

In an interview with UN News, Muhannad Hadi, Regional Humanitarian Coordinator for the Syria Crisis speaks to Shirin Yaseen of our Arabic team, about the Organization’s efforts and priorities for ordinary Syrians caught up in the brutal war that on Monday, marks its grim, 10-year anniversary. 

The COVID19 crisis and its aftermath has shown that infectious diseases respect borders no more than climate change – both of which impact billions of lives, migration trends and economic prosperity worldwide. In the modern world where national boundaries matter very little, we are inseparably connected to one another. The Syria Crisis and the subsequent refugee numbers to Canada is a case in point. So is the Ebola outbreak in 2014 which led Canada to adopt preventative measures in its public spaces. We know that foreign aid works. It saves and improves the lives of billions of people around the world, safeguarding their human dignity by lifting them out of poverty and giving them a chance to reach their potential. But the moral imperative for maintaining our levels of foreign aid is only half the story. Development assistance is also a way to invest in Canada's prosperity by supporting the local markets and economies of developing countries in need, which in the long run are able to transition from their crisis phase into stable economies and trading partners for Canada. In 2019, Canada was WFP's seventh largest donor contributing nearly 200 million USD to support WFP's operations in emergencies. WFP is consistently the single largest recipient of Canadian international humanitarian assistance which we receive through Global Affairs Canada. Speaker: Marwa Awad Marwa Awad works as a humanitarian aid communications officer with the World Food Program in areas of conflict including Iraq, Syria, Burkina Faso and South Sudan. In the past decade she has seen how investing in WFP food assistance operations means investing in keeping people alive and healthy as well as limiting their inclination to flee elsewhere which disrupts both local and international economies. Supporting WFP also means helping build the resilience of communities so that they can get back on their own feet.

U.S. President Donald Trump met with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan to discuss Turkey's ongoing offensive in Northeastern Syria on November 13th. The meeting occurred as fighting continues in Eastern Syria. ISW Syria expert John Dunford discusses the events in Syria and abroad that shaped the two presidents' conversation and its subsequent outcome. 

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Russian President Vladimir Putin met to coordinate military movements in Northern Syria. The two presidents reached an initial agreement intended to push Kurdish forces away from the Turkey-Syria border region over the coming days. ISW Syria expert John Dunford discusses what is known about the new deal and how it will effect Turkish and Russian actions in Syria moving forward. *Originally published October 23, 2019. 

The U.S. military withdrawal from Syria and subsequent Turkish advances are creating a new opening for Russia and its partners. Russian forces have taken over areas vacated by the U.S. as the Kremlin positions itself to reshape Syria's future. ISW Research analyst Mason Clark joins ISW Research Director Jennifer Cafarella to discuss the latest Russian maneuvers and how they advance Vladimir Putin's broader ambitions in Syria. *Originally published October 16, 2019. 

The situation on the ground is rapidly evolving as the Turkish offensive advances into Syria. ISIS is taking advantage of the conditions of chaos to resurge and threaten to reverse progress made by the Anti-ISIS Coalition. ISW's Research Director Jennifer Cafarella, Syria expert John Dunford, and Counterterrorism expert Brandon Wallace discuss how recent developments may threaten U.S. forces as they withdraw and what ISW is watching heading into the week. *Originally published October 15, 2019.   

Turkey has initiated a military operation into a part of Northern Syria controlled by Syrian Kurdish-led forces. The operation follows a U.S. decision to withdrawal from the immediate area controlled by the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) - the primary Syria-based U.S. partner in the campaign against the Islamic State of Iraq and al Sham (ISIS). As Turkish forces move across the border and the SDF responds, ISW's Syria expert John Dunford explained the context, key dynamics shaping the battle, and the effects on the counter-ISIS campaign. *Originally published October 9, 2019. 

Turkey is about to invade Northeastern Syria with U.S. permission despite previous American security guarantees to the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF). The U.S. has not yet announced a full withdrawal from Syria but U.S. forces pulled back from the border. ISW Research Director Jennifer Cafarella and Syria expert John Dunford discuss what options the SDF has and how other actors, including ISIS and Iran, are prepared to exploit the possible chaos to follow. *Originally published October 7, 2019.   

The deadline to implement the first phase of the Russo-Turkish deal for Northeast Syria passed without significant progress after Kurdish forces refused to withdraw from the border. Meanwhile, a new contingent of U.S. forces deployed to southeast Syria to secure oil fields. U.S. forces also patrolled a Kurdish area, indicating a continued relationship with Kurdish forces. ISW Research Director Jennifer Cafarella and Syria expert John Dunford explain these details and discuss what to expect next. *Originally published November 1, 2019.

Stephen Hickey has a unique perspective: he was sent to Syria in 2010, as the UK's deputy ambassador to Damascus back when it was thought of as a "sleepy posting." The Assad regime kicked him out of the country a year later, as the protests intensified. Now, he's the political coordinator of the UK mission to the United Nations, and he talks to Ravi and Grant about how seven brutal years of war in Syria has created a humanitarian crisis on an immense scale. The discussion covers the roots of the conflict, how the West has responded and the potential danger of military action without a long-term diplomatic strategy. Learn more about your ad choices.

Jane Harrigan (SOAS), Nicholas Vagen-Weeks (SOAS) and David Keen (LSE) The dynamic inter-linkages between food security and conflict are increasingly being recognised as key issues in both conflict studies and work on food and nutrition security. Food and conflict have become intimately related in many conflict zones such as in current day Syria and Somalia and famine studies have long acknowledged the importance of war famine. Lack of food security and struggles over food-related natural resources such as land can be important sources and triggers of conflict whilst conflict itself usually worsens food and nutrition security. It does so in two ways. Firstly indirectly by threatening entitlements to food and increasing vulnerabilities, for example via the disruption of agricultural production and secondly, more directly when food is used as a weapon of war for example by withholding food or food aid from certain groups or plundering resources such as cattle and livestock. More recently, it has also been acknowledged that food issues are important in the transition from conflict and in rebuilding post-conflict societies and that this has to be approached from a political as well as a socio-economic perspective. This panel aims to draw together several papers on this topic making use of diverse country studies from both an academic and development practitioner perspective. This episode features Panel 4 of the Workshop on ‘Political Economy Approaches to Food Regimes.’ This one-day workshop, was organised by the SOAS University of London Food, Nutrition and Health in Development Research Custer and brought together topics in contemporary food regime studies examined from a political economy perspective. Topics included inequality and food security, the state and food sovereignty, food regimes and the politics of conflict and financialisation of food. Paper One: ‘Food Security in Palestine - The Effects of Occupation on Policy Space’ by Prof Jane Harrigan (SOAS University of London, UK) Paper Two: ‘The Political Economy of Food in the Syria Crisis’ by Nicholas Vagen-Weeks (SOAS University of London, UK) Paper Three: ‘Starving Them: Causes and Functions in Sudan, Syria and Yemen’ by Professor David Keen (LSE, UK) Organiser: SOAS University of London Food, Nutrition and Health in Development Research Custer Event Date: 19 January 2018 Released by: SOAS Economics Podcast

The most effective way to tackle the Syrian refugee crisis is for neighbouring states to assume a leading role in development spending, infrastructure upgrading and job creation, particularly in the most underdeveloped regions of those countries.

Research conducted in Akkar, north Lebanon, suggests that the role played by the host community demonstrates good local capacity which should be built on to encourage further civic engagement and empowerment.

The circumstances for both successful livelihoods programming for refugees and for contributing to the local economy are present in the Kurdish region of Iraq.

Not all those who have gone to Syria's neighbours are registered, nor do all of these people regard themselves as refugees

The Syria Regional Response Plan 6 (RRP6) 2014 provides an increased focus on early recovery, social cohesion interventions and a transition from assistance to development-led interventions, alongside the continuing large-scale humanitarian assistance.

As the civil war in Syria drags on, the scale of displacement continues to increase. While the crisis may be prolonged, refugees and IDPs need support now for their protection, their recovery, and both their immediate and their long-term prospects.

From the Editors

Refugees in Lebanon prefer living outside camps, where they can influence their situation.

A cadre of educated middle-class Syrian refugees dedicated to improving conditions for Syrians at home and in Lebanon are building a civil society in exile but face obstacles to consolidating their presence and becoming more effective.

It is easy to say that people fleeing Syria should stay in camps or satellite cities but people move on for a variety of reasons, and programmes and services must adapt to assist them.

Having limited legal status has direct negative consequences for Syrian refugees' access to protection and assistance during their stay in Lebanon. Limited legal status also increases the risks of abuse and exploitation.

In contexts of displacement it is critical to recognise that some groups in the population may require specific attention. Awareness of these needs has major consequences for the types of services required, and the way they are delivered.

The significance of women as both distributors and recipients has been pivotal to the implementation of humanitarian assistance but also points to the burgeoning of a new social dynamic that has come about as a result of the upheaval caused by the war.

With IDPs currently constituting two-thirds of those uprooted by the conflict, the ‘inside story' of displacement in Syria requires much greater attention.

Many Syrians, even when they have not been individually singled out, meet the refugee criteria on the grounds of being at risk of persecution because of a perceived association, in the broadest sense, with one of the parties to the conflict.

While Syrian nationals may eventually return to their home country, the future for Palestinians from Syria is increasingly uncertain. Meanwhile they are more vulnerable, and treated worse, than most other refugees from the Syrian conflict.

Mental health services can be key to restoring basic psychological functioning and to supporting resilience and positive coping strategies for children, adolescents and adults.

The struggles endured by men who remain inside Syria and the obstacles faced by others who choose to remove themselves from the fighting by fleeing the country demonstrate a need to redefine classic conceptions of vulnerability.

Could re-opening the Golan Heights to Syrians displaced by the conflict be a beneficial option for those fleeing the Syrian conflict and for Israel's relations with its north-eastern neighbour?

Despite the humanitarian community's clear focus on addressing the protection concerns of displaced Syrians, in Jordan the beneficiaries of many protection programmes have had limited influence on the shape of the protection response to date.

It is important to Jordan both that it protects its national identity and maintains its cultural obligations, and that it faces up to its humanitarian obligations.

Tonight we will be discussing some hot current events topics, The return of NFL Football looking at week 1. Reflections on 9/11 and the current Syria Crisis. Also work stress and dealing with those idiotic co-workers.

The violent conflict in Syria has affected more than four and a half million Syrians, over 800,000 of whom have fled the country.
