Expert on Civil Wars around the World Says the Fight to Save Democracy Must Come from the Bottom Up

Mar 30, 2025 | Professor Barbara F. Walter, a renowned expert on civil wars around the world, warns that the United States meets key criteria for nations heading toward major political violence. We ignore the warning signs at our own peril, according to the author of “How Civil Wars Start and How to Stop Them.” American history shows that the fight to save democracy will have to come from the bottom up, Walter says. “Protest and peaceful resistance works,” she adds. “Don't voluntarily comply with orders that are illegal. Don't help Donald Trump implement his agenda–don’t preemptively comply.”

A second US civil war is “going to happen” if state and federal authorities continue to prosecute Donald Trump, the former Alaska governor and Republican vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin said.

“Those who are conducting this travesty and creating this two-tier system of justice, I want to ask them what the heck, do you do want us to be in civil war? Because that’s what’s going to happen,” Palin told Newsmax on Thursday night.

“We’re not going to keep putting up with this.”

Palin was speaking to the rightwing network as Trump surrendered at a jail in Fulton county, Georgia, and a historic mugshot was released. » | Martin Pengelly in Washington | Friday, August 25, 2023

Britain Is Heading Towards A Civil War With Islam

Syrians No Longer Trust Neighbours As 'Religious Mosaic' Breaks Up

BBC: Syria's government troops are stepping up their offensive against rebel forces in Damascus, according to the BBC's Middle East editor, Jeremy Bowen.

It comes as a Syrian minister hails a US-Russia deal on Syria's chemical weapons as a "victory" that averts war.

The agreement states Syria must provide full details of its stockpile within a week - with the chemical arsenal eliminated by mid-2014.

Jeremy Bowen has been to meet Christians who fled their homes in Maaloula, some of whom say they were attacked by rebels "with local accents".

He says many Syrians no longer trust their old neighbours and that "the religious mosaic of different sects is breaking up". Watch BBC video » | Sunday, September 15, 2013

Not Anymore: A Story of Revolution - Syria

This powerful and tragic film gets startlingly close to the struggle of ordinary Syrian people against Assad brutality.

Maaloula's Cathedral and Churches Empty of Christians as Syria's Latest Front-line Fight Takes Its Toll

THE DAILY TELEGRAPH: Its churches are empty, its monasteries deserted, many pitted and holed by the battles raging around them.
On Sunday thousands of Christians should have filled its streets for the festival of the Holy Cross. But instead the streets of Maaloula are filled with soldiers and tanks, spent bullet casings and the noise of Syria's latest front-line fight.

Maaloula is a special place. It has been a safe haven for Christians for 2,000 years - until now. It was a place of refuge so secure in its rugged mountain isolation that a dialect of the language of Christ, Aramaic, is still spoken here. But not today.

Its Christian community of 2,000 has fled. In the tight alleyways and streets that wind up the Maaloula's mountainside their language has been replaced by the Arabic of two bitter enemies: rebels from three Islamist groups and the soldiers of President Bashar al-Assad.

Some 70,000 tourists a year used to come here from all over the Middle East, Europe and America to marvel at the Christianity carved into its rock. But the "Welcome to Maaloula" sign as I drove in seemed almost laughable.

There was hardly time to notice the white statue of Christ the Redeemer on the hillside before we were fired on, bullets aimed at our van, blowing our tyre and holing the chassis. We screeched to a halt and scrambled clear. » | Bill Neely, International Editor, ITV News, in Damascus and Maaloula | Saturday, September 14, 2013

Syria Crisis: More Signs US Involvement in Civil War May Be Greater Than First Anticipated as Obama Looks to Boost Rebels

THE INDEPENDENT: Increased support will include sending expert Army personnel

As the Obama administration struggles to convince lawmakers of the case for intervention in Syria, there were signs today that American involvement in the civil war there, if it happens, might be greater in scale than was first anticipated.

US officials are said to be studying a plan to increase support for rebels fighting to remove the Syrian President Bashar al-Assad from power. The new plan would see the military send its own trainers to bolster the capabilities of the rebels, something they have resisted in the past.

The CIA has been training groups of rebels in Jordan. But the involvement of the military could see the number of rebels being trained spiral from dozens to hundreds or even thousands, according to the Associated Press. » | Nikhil Kumar | New York | Saturday, September 07, 2013

Syria's Civilians Are Trapped in a Deadly No-man's Land
BBC: "We are dead." It was a terrifyingly simple assessment of the grim reality for Aleppo's residents.

Abu Stayf says he has lost his wife and six children; they were all killed when a rocket landed on his house.

Yet he refuses to leave. He sleeps in an abandoned basement on a street where rotting rubbish piles up and rubble from shelled buildings spills across the pavement.

Caught in a no-man's land between government forces and rebel fighters, he asks: "Where should I go? You'll die wherever you go. Our homes have been destroyed, our children are dead and we have no-one left."

The bakery just down the road was the target of a government attack a few weeks ago in which 20 people died, according to activists.

It was the final straw for many of the residents and most of them have now fled.

But Abu Stayf won't leave. He sits on a vinyl-covered chair with two friends while artillery shells crash in neighbouring streets; the sound and fury of gun battles breaking bouts of pregnant silence.

"We have no food, no water, no electricity. There is shelling every day, bombardment every day," he says. (+ video) » | Ian Pannell, BBC News, Aleppo | Monday, October 08, 2012
