It might be of interest for comrades that the official HTS website shows a video about a rally in Idlib City in commemoration of Raed Fares.

This confirms my suspicion that HTS was not behind this assasination. (Of course it is no final proof.)

I am not sure how many, but there have been some.  On 9 December 2013, four activists in Douma - Razan Zeitouneh, Wael Hamada, Samira Khalil and Nazem Hamadi - were abducted by armed men and disappeared.  In the absence of any information about them since then, we can assume they were murdered. According to Robin Yassin-Kassab and Leila al-Shami, "Most people blame Zahran Alloush's Jaysh al-Islam, Douma's strongest militia, for the abduction".  (Burning Country, Pluto Press, 2016, page x)


Don't you realize how idiotic you seem bringing up the name of only four people in a total of 7 years?

I guess not.

In the case of Raed Fares and Hamoud Juneid, I would be inclined to suspect Turkish military intelligence, which has been accused of killing opponents of the Sochi deal.  But I admit I have no evidence to confirm this suspicion.

Maybe it was the Cali cartel.

"...Syria would have been better off if Islamists had taken power in 2013 or so and rapidly closed economic and political ranks with Turkey".

Replacing one oppressive regime by another was not the aim of the revolution.  The "Kurdish leadership" rightly rejected this false choice.

Yeah, it took choice C, which involved a non-aggression pact with the Baathist Third Reich. The PYD must have read Molotov's autobiography.
