ly like in this high-pressure crossroads of the Middle East? There are signs that Syria is opening up, but it is still dominated by a single party and Syrians have limited political freedom and education is compulsory for boys and girls up to the age of 15 and free at university level like anywhere in the world. school is much more than just books in this program it is the beginning of a new school year Amal Hassan is the principal of the Zakia secondary school for girls in Jersey, she makes sure that everyone who knows who rules the diet comes from a family She is a devout Muslim and has until now been educated in an Islamic school, but this term she moved to the more liberal Zeki al al Suzie school, where most of her classmates come from different backgrounds in the city and at the Jaramana boys' school. .

Yousef, this soccer player, is an Iraqi refugee who experienced the bombs in Baghdad, now in Syria he must begin to overcome his fear of explosions. We follow his stories as they begin the new academic year in their Syrian schools. It's September in prosperous Alma's, our area of ​​Damascus. Zakia laughs Rosie. The girls' high school prepares for the first day in town hoping to lead another group of students to graduation. Their director Mrs. Amal Nasir I will not be able to see how strong I am and how proud I am of myself and how free I am on one side and this is very good for them to face the problem of life that they have to be like this today .

It's the lady's first day. Hassan seventeenth year as principal here, do it the girls are finding their classes for the new school year 17 years old my ass Barozzi was so disruptive last year that she was moved to a different class because our Suzie is a state school that teaches 1200 girls between 15 and 18 years, like most Syrian schools, are secular and follow the baccalaureate system and teach the full range of subjects. nobley she catches up on physics mr.

ized now. What is different about the beginning of this school year is that it coincides with the beginning of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. They are not supposed to eat or drink until sunset, the school does not enforce this, but as a concession there is no physical education and the candy stores close at least the first day of shift, the girls can wear whatever clothes they want and want to buy In the beginning I think they are beautiful gifts gifts for the teacher for me for each other but beautiful or not school supervisor mr. hem wants to make sure that for girls these relaxed rules only last one day they can wear whatever they want this thing tomorrow they won't recognize them they are very different tomorrow the holy month of Ramadan has just begun celebrates the beginning of God's revelation of the Quran to the prophet Muhammad In the late afternoon the streets are packed with hungry and thirsty people struggling to get home towards sunset at a time that would normally be rush hour the traffic gradually moves away

families

gather at home and friends recent restaurants huge firecrackers at the call to prayer at sunset tell the faithful that it is time to start their iftar meal a word normally used for breakfast the new moon hovers over the city which will follow the daily cycle of Ramadan for an entire lunar month all On the days before dawn the city wakes up with drums that awaken the faithful to eat a sustaining meal that will carry them throughout the day two Zakia our school Susy and Mrs.

Hassan is checking that his daughters have come with uniforms and diapers from a year ago. Easy is a new girl in Zakia, our Susy, so she has a new bus route to master. The vast majority of schools in Syria are secular, but until now the diet has been educated in a Sharia school is governed by Islamic principles, but Zakir al son Suzy's school diets to be able to concentrate on his academic studies during the crucial last year of his high school. Some Muslim girls in Zakia or Suzi do not wear the traditional hijab. Islamic headscarf diets The Islamic sharia school was a different world the new principal a Muslim woman from a different generation has noticed a change in fashion 14 years ago the team will not return now most of them are covered why am I doing it ma'am.

Hassan has come to explore the agent's reasons and his intensity remains after time and in the future, the new sports girl Dwyer decides to join the debate. Alania Deseret no kanata very disgusting, disgusting, demonic, the man of Bethlehem kills her, any physical hijab is stopped is abelian canard of Art, a neutral base, has a ninja and then immediately moves telekinesis and, in my image, will allow Desmet is there, but he doesn't kill, wondered Dean Stimac Cameron, a dentist. I'm pretty honest, why that's mostly me after who the lady doesn't have. bad, he hits me right there, muslim I am with her hijab will enter mr hated not loaded happy lady in lady of the hegemon a needy child I can't help but add the large amount of the short actor as therefore a negative sign that I dusted off another series is to the north, surveillance and user account, contact with our head of innovation, but Brunella had never been shy in Offutt Allah, I want them to be free from within a lot of physical tyranny for the villa here or Shanley's paradigms, attitude of teenagers and young people on Yahoo or not. addictive, he was the boss of murder, yes, and how does she and she do it unless society doesn't?

Why does he do anything other than the desire to mark her lady? Hassan's job is to deal with all the challenges that come with her position, not everyone can be a principal because it is very difficult to know everything about her students about their teachers. The vice principal faces a problem that all schools face at the beginning of the year, the difference here is that many of the teachers also work in other schools to increase their income, so it is a logistical nightmare to arrange the schedule so that fits everyone's different work schedules. I said, I think he's a gentleman, I always think so and things have probably gotten so bad that Mrs.

Hassan has called the teachers meeting to clear things up Sharat la illaha Deanna Sue Ellen what are you really in an acid whistle in Sarnia at the a letter from poule bay in front of that men are hella Haga who killed Juarez vitamin L fair Nahanni Wi- Fi, can it be shark from time to time, yes, now the man I attended Sharia Killebrew Italian darling ah hello sir Malaysia hello Naga nation will be Chaka tamanna when the saint sonic ELISA raha see in relation to Tatiana democratic return nor dictatorial Hashanah Wilma hey baby burn me Wilma hey The story of the baby is called an egg Talib arty rod when a concealer in a dresser, well, fortunately, it is very similar to how I enter more Hardy, who mentions about the Uni AK in America, It was Fiamma, in general, who nervously drives an hour south from Damascus and arrives.

Territory occupied by Israel and now to the west and you are in Lebanon and four hours to the east is the border with Iraq Damascus and in the schools you feel the effects of nearby events since the fall of Saddam in 2003 two million Iraqi refugees have fled to Syria their first stop in their search for a new life, Yusuf, 15, and Eros, and his older brother, Johnson, our Iraqi Christians from Baghdad, but for now living in Damascus as refugees. Yusuf is entitled to receive a free UN school uniform, as about to start life in a new school, a little shiny, you can supply lower diamonds.

He had my father's command center. Syria is proud of the refuge it offers, but many Iraqis have suffered high levels of psychological trauma before arriving here and, ethically, carpentry work is a new common skill. I miss my SWAT hacker, not someone what diamond should I call animal, animal and you know, especially Adama, the commander after picking up his new school uniform, Yusuf returns home, he lives with his family in the suburb of Jaramana in Damascus, historically It is a religiously mixed area of ​​the city, so it has been a magnet for Iraqi Christians who have suffered greatly in the sectarian violence that engulfed their homeland after the fall of Saddam Yussef.

He loves football. He spends his afternoons playing with his Iraqi teammates at a local Damascus soccer club. Paul and his brothers watch his favorite team. in a nearby cafe, but not tonight because tomorrow Youssef will begin his life at a new school. Tonight at midnight, Yusuf's brother James will leave Syria to start a new life as a barber in Sweden. He will meet with his wife, who already managed to get it. a visa Oh Samson orange juice our bar Adonis Tucker oh come on FC nylon Can I sit in a group of us after you, inaudible veteran senator?

SIF is struggling to cope with pokken learns attack meaty and tall Reba and me rocky here the one who ate the charmer after oral medicine and I can still love him again Really Oh Marshall oh the itch wait, you know, I have the idea of ​​the people buy any man, her, some of them, I don't know, I told him, but no metallo that has a long cane, these children are not only from different countries, but also from different religions, the school is secular but teaches Islamic and Christian religious studies, so the school supervisor. Radwan needs to know who will study what is the word I am diversifier on the first day of school the children are told not to assert their differences.

Yousef is no stranger to conflict after a life in Iraq, where even a kick could endanger the life of no one. I'm sure it was an absolute adjustment for the connected K'vin. Benna started Fattah stealing from a guy in Iraq. Yousef had hoped to play in front of a visiting group of Dutch scouts, but the death of his brother meant he had to leave the country early. He could show them his abilities now that he is in Damascus. He is sure to follow his sports dreams, but in his first pee lesson it seems that the sports teacher, Mrs. fell or is less of a football fan than he is for a long time Yusuf realizes that the pee lesson today it will be all talk and no action until the fall of Saddam Iraqis and Syrians lived under different versions of the same political system bath ISM bath in Arabic means Renaissance The Bath party was founded in Damascus in 1940 after the end of French colonial rule .

It is based on secular and socialist ideals. Images of the Baath Party leader president still stare at citizens from all angles. The Syrian Constitution says that the Bath party is the leader. of the state and society and the party organization extends to every day school life Zakia or Suzy Sirach barked hopes of becoming leaders of the bathroom the structure of the school so from now on the girls will have to pass the control of the uniform to be able to enter school by then you and I annually with butter, but they are already better, but they are surprised, he is so young, finally, the school supervisor, Mr.

Hobbs Wide is grooming Sonar to take over as Head Girl here. Wash, if they simply see you starting the tea with your business, you will see other people on the ecological strike, while Sarah may seem harsh on her fellow students, Mr. Harib regrets some of the liberalizing reforms introduced in 2001 when the president Bashar al-Assad came to power, but if the Dutch of Siena were hospitable, Diala and others, to a certain extent, the map is deadly heavy and mothers, who are Oscar da pad for a young believer American military academies dongsaeng nabob accesses a young vision, he has a special ability and I am aware that this idea that you should see was not from mr.

Hogg that morning at mr. habe has given Sorrow the role of acting director after national motto Sorrow arrives to raise the national flag to the tune of the Syrian national anthem. Young Syrians may now have more freedom to choose their future than before, but thebathroom is still effectively the only political option for them it's time for school prefect elections all candidates and voters have to be active members of a serious revolutionary youth union what Fonzie has been dampened is us, as Iraqis, who were undecided By the devil, well, sir. Muhammad's MEA with them just watch at 7:00 from today, sauna may be one step closer to being confirmed as the new director of decorations, it means maybe Danielle Mosley, me elsewhere, like me, yes, varasi, my ass comes forward even though I am sometimes known as a disruptive student and even though he regrets the favorite, he needs mr.

Syrian democracy is very limited in national elections. The bathroom party is guaranteed a majority in parliament and instead of presidential elections there is a referendum every seven years. the president supports Shah Baba Wawa Abdul Jenny it's finally time to hear the results Danny may not have thought that disorder comes with salt, although Sadness got the most votes, it is up to the adults of the student union to make the final decision about the eventual slates she and the other six top candidates will receive.

In May, yes, but as far as Washington is concerned, I saw several Viennas telling me Earth Day. tomorrow bravado even though pain won the most votes her father is not entirely happy with her jimmy o'phelan a lean in permaculture means what is what then Allah instead of Chopin no we don't come on Nana could hurt Alicia what opener and a Titanic an F in Atlanta idiot shut up I know I could be a demi with the hot dog so far was that regime what's up with the I mean will you get exactly the woman from Hobart you will get exactly what Howie is and you will see the criticisms of my mother and his father?

It seems particularly harsh since Saara and some friends have continued practicing basketball even though they are fasting for Ramadan number C in the village Ramada Signor in the gaps Jonnie that bastard was Vasudha one of Sarah's friends is maius Barozzi who was So naughty last year she almost got expelled from school, but she's popular enough to have gotten the 7th leadership position against the odds that it will only happen to me a year later, so you're still fine, miserable, so you want the black be the energy mafia from hell. stuff and oh great have you ever seen a side of 984 even and honestly you're Clooney along with a non-supermodel the Jaramana kids are an MIT religious school with a lot of Iraqi Christian refugees it's packed to the point of explode and in the breaks you can get pretty. enough, everyone is competing for a very limited space today, Yusuf's Iraqi friends Ferdi and Steven got into trouble, they called them and saw the supervisor in this summer, smart, smart, that's the machine and almost even Lucifer, like that yes, and Sam thought it was soft and so yes, to me I said we're welcome, Emily, kind of brilliant mater without her having to suddenly approach.

You're not feeling well, he's alone, but things are probably on eBay beautifully nurses, why come on, it belongs to us, any ID can be very J about me. work today there is an opportunity for Yusef to try to leave the past behind him 60 miles from Damascus lies the mainly Christian city of Maluna there is an expectation in the air as the city prepares for the annual all-night festival of the cross and returns to Damascus 30 Buses are waiting to take members of the Jeremiah refugee community to the party. It is an opportunity for Raki Christians like Youssef and his brother Johnson to reaffirm and celebrate their Christian identity after persecution in Iraq.

Crowds are gathering in Maaloula for the all-night fireworks festival. For Youssef it will be a true reminder of the sounds of war as the light fades. The processions head to the surrounding mountains. Robotically non-inclusive nature. The firefighters have taken up positions above the city from where they will orchestrate a fearsome display. My Lockhart tonight. Youssef will do it. First they will have to face his fear of strong blows. First they visit the chapel of a St. Patrick's convent, where an all-night vigil is already taking place. The centerpiece of the ceremony is the Christian symbol of the cross.

The party will continue throughout the day. Simply setting off firecrackers at night marks progress for Yusuf, who survived the US bombing of Baghdad, but he may never fully overcome his fear of noisy violence. The festival of the Cross coincided with the third week of Ramadan and there were more than 80 people in Damascus. percent of Muslims the holy month is gaining intensity strange Z is no exception she had memorized the entire Quran when she was 14 and went to Sharia school until she moved to the secular zakiya our Suzy this shift to focus on preparing for the baccalaureate exams for daya there is no contradiction between devout religious conviction and the desire for a modern education last time I landed in Halawa Lenin and it is a good limb and there it looks beautiful, how about it or a VA?
