Scott Mc Kiernan Presents zReportage.com Issue #990 Story of the Week: Published TUESDAY May 20, 2025: ‘DARE TO DREAM: New Hope For Syria’ by ZUMA Press award winning photo-journalist Elke Scholiers: Jobar is a devastated suburb of Syria’s capital Damascus and a former stronghold of rebels, who fought on the front line for years. Now that Assad has been driven out and the guns have fallen silent, families are trying to rebuild their lives amid the rubble. Laughter can be heard again at school, but traumas are simmering beneath the surface. In just six months after the toppling of former president Bashar al-Assad, Syria has gone from a global pariah to a country of promise. President Trump has announced he would end all US sanctions on Syria, a move he said ”gives them a chance at greatness”. Suddenly there’s new hope that the shattered country can be rebuilt. 7 million Syrians were displaced within the country during the conflict. Bringing them back is perhaps the biggest challenge Syria now faces. Welcome to ‘DARE TO DREAM: New Hope For Syria’

May 16, 2025, Berlin, Hamburg, Germany: In a powerful display of Jewish resilience, hope, and unity, people gathered in Berlin’s Olivaer Platz on Friday, May 16, 2025, for a Lag BaOmer march organized by Chabad Berlin. The peaceful procession, held under the motto “For Peace and Tolerance – Bring Them Home,” called for the immediate release of Israeli hostages still held in Gaza by the Hamas terror group. This year, the celebration bore a weightier symbolism: solidarity with the kidnapped, remembrance of Jewish suffering, and defiance in the face of rising antisemitism in Europe. With signs reading “Keep Calm, Be Jewish,” and “Tolerant and Diverse,” children and parents joined in singing, dancing, and chanting for peace. Marchers made their way along the iconic Kurfuerstendamm, the heart of West Berlin, as onlookers paused to witness a rare moment of Jewish joy.
