From time to time, TOC reports on the analyses by Dutch Middle-East correspondent Harald Doornbos; his analysis of the potential rise of Saif-al-Islam, Muammar Khadaffi’s son, and his observations on the different attitude towards extremism in Muslim countries compared to the West.
Doornbos is currently in Raqqa, Syria, and now observes Syrian refugees returning to their home country. According to the UN-refugee organisation UNHCR most of them returned to the cities Aleppo, Hama, Homs and Damascus. The organisation concluded this proves that the safety levels in those regions have improved. Approximately 12 million Syrian refugees are still on the run from war violence.
