Summarization
This collection of tweets discusses a report from the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) which found that Syrian government forces were responsible for a gas attack in Douma and debunks alternative claims.

Other topics include the consequences of Kais Said taking over the government in Tunisia, the death toll and hardships of the Turkey-Syria Earthquake, Kevin Hart's cancelled Cairo event due to his Afrocentric comments, racism in Russia, anime dubbed into Arabic countering toxic masculinity in Lebanon, the ghazal and musings on love, fear and rain, as well as fear, love, the Rafik Hariri killing, the Ukraine-Russia invasion, and the recent attack in Karachi.

| 1625838004102217730 | The latest report from the @OPCW chemical weapons watchdog shows not only that Syria's Assad regime used gas in Douma but that none of the alternative claims is viable, writes @Brian_Whit for @newlinesmag https://t.co/YAMOupo3aH | 191 |
| 1625847711600615426 | Aid to northwest Syria was impeded neither by sanctions nor the absence of a U.N. mandate. Instead, it was a failure of will — mainly by the @UN, but also by the U.S. and EU, argues @im_pulse in @newlinesmag https://t.co/34metgo9nN | 127 |
| 1625127226030030849 | The death toll of the #TurkeySyriaEarthquake has passed 36,000. And it is increasing every day.

| 1627654262221053952 | When Kais Saied overthrew his own government in July 2021, I was surprised by the number of people sanguine about his takeover. A chorus of "let's wait and see" resounded across the political left. In @newlinesmag I write about the fruits that view bore. https://t.co/QlusGf2x62 | 34 |
