Syria’s civil war is the worst humanitarian crisis of our time: now in its fourth year, it has cost over 200,000 lives, while at least 7.6 million people are internally displaced and another 4 million have become refugees in other countries, half of them under the age of 18. They are fleeing the fighting between government and disparate non-state armed groups that continues to rage across the country.

Syria’s Past
Syria has a rich history, going back thousands of years; in fact archaeologists believe the country was home to one of the most ancient civilizations on earth. Subsequently the area known as Syria has been taken over by many ancient empires, including the Egyptians, Sumerians, Phoenicians, Persians and the Greeks.

Jumping forward to the 16th century, the country that came to be known as Syria was conquered by the Ottoman Turks in 1516 and remained part of their empire for four centuries. At that time Syrian territory included the area we now call Syria, as well as Lebanon, Israel, Jordan, Palestine, the Gaza Strip as well as parts of Turkey and Iraq.

With World War One came the collapse of the Ottoman empire, and in 1916, under the Sykes-Picot Agreement, Britain and France divided up the entire area in what looks like pretty arbitrary fashion. They decided to put Syria under French mandate, and in 1918, when Arab and British troops captured Damascus and Aleppo, Syria became a League of Nations mandate and moved under French control in 1920.

So Syria, just like its neighbors Iraq and Lebanon was a country created artificially by Britain and France. Also as in both of those countries, the western colonial powers created an ethnically divided society. About 70 percent of the population of Syria is Sunni, about 15 percent are Alawites (a Muslim sect with Shia links), and there are also several smaller groups, including ethnic Kurds and Christian Arabs.

Reports indicate that at least 76,000 people were killed in 2014 out of a total of 220,000 since the crisis began, including thousands of children. The exact death toll is unknown, and possibly much higher. Deliberate attacks, including the organized murder, rape, and torture of men, women and children continue to be committed by different sides in the conflict throughout Syria every day.

  • WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE   By Save the Children org.
    ◎ Parties to the conflict should abide by international human rights law (IHRL) and international humanitarian law (IHL), cease attacks on schools and hospitals, and end the use of explosive weapons with wide-area effects in populated areas.
    ◎The UNSC and UN member states with influence in Syria should take immediate steps to hold accountable those responsible for breaches of IHRL and IHL.
    ◎Transfers of arms and ammunition to parties which have used them to commit war crimes should be halted.
    ◎UN agencies and NGOs should significantly scale-up protection activities inside Syria, particularly from neighbouring countries. 
    ◎Parties to the conflict should: facilitate humanitarian access to all parts of Syria; end attacks on humanitarian workers; and remove administrative barriers to aid, including Syrian government restrictions on travel and working with Syrian organizations.
    ◎Influential governments should press countries bordering Syria to facilitate cross-border aid delivery, including by streamlining administrative processes for aid agencies and maintaining timely access through border crossings. 
    ◎Donorsshouldfullyfundtheresponse and support international aid agencies to build the capacity of Syrian NGOs, while also increasing funding to support refugees and poor local populations in countries neighbouring Syria. 
    ◎Wealthy countries should scale up resettlement and humanitarian admissions programmes to ensure that at least 5% of refugees are able to access protection outside the region in 2015.19
    ◎Partiestotheconflictshouldendthe fighting and enter into meaningful, inclusive peace talks that respect the rights and aspirations of the Syrian people.
    ◎The UNSC and governments with influence should put urgent emphasis on finding a political solution and support the efforts of the UN Special Envoy to secure a freeze in the fighting in the city of Aleppo.

                      Behind Stark Political Divisions, 
               a More Complex Map of Sunnis and Shiites
                       By SARAH ALMUKHTAR, SERGIO PEÇANHA and TIM WALLACE   JAN. 5, 2016

The New York Times|Source: M. Izady, Columbia University's Gulf 2000 project | Note: Non-Muslims and other Islamic sects are not shown.

Sunni-led allies of Saudi Arabia have cut diplomatic ties with Shiite Iran, further polarizing
the Middle East along the two major branches of Islam. But while almost all of the governments
are controlled by one sect, the countries’ populations are a mix of Sunnis and Shiites, as well
as other branches and sub-sects, an important and complicating factor in the region’s conflicts.Shades of Islam in the Arabian Peninsula

Wahhabism, an ultraconservative doctrine linked to Sunni Islam, is embraced by about a quarter of the Saudi population, according to Michael Izady, a historian and cultural geographer who has mapped ethnicity and religion for Columbia University. But many Saudis are not so conservative and the country also has a sizeable Shiite minority. Saudi Arabia’s mass execution of 47 men on terrorism-related charges last week included Sunnis and Shiites.There are about three Shiites for every five Sunnis in the Middle East. Most of the Shiites are in Iran, but they are also the majority in countries like Azerbaijan, Bahrain and Iraq, and are a significant political and military force in Lebanon and Syria.

Iran is also home to about eight million Sunnis who make up about 11 percent of the population. The country is accused of supporting the Shiite Houthi insurgents in Yemen and of fomenting Shiite opposition in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia. It is a key supporter of Hezbollah, the Lebanese Shiite militia, and of president Bashar al-Assad in Syria.

My name is Feryal. I live in Lincoln, Nebraska, but I grew up in a small town in Iraq called Sinjar. Last August, ISIS kidnapped thousands of women and girls from my hometown. For a year, ISIS has tortured and raped them. Many are teenagers just like me.
Please urge President Obama to help save 3,200 women and children from my community -- some as young as 11 -- who were captured by ISIS, and have been raped and tortured for the past year.
