SUMMARY:Palestinization of Syrian Refugees - Panel and film
DESCRIPTION:The situation for the refugees has become increasingly present in the Norwegian and European media over the last weeks and months. However\, the debate about the refugees is still being repeatedly depoliticized and reduced into a question of numbers only.\nIn this debate we will take as a point of departure the assertion that the influx of refugees is not the core of the problem; rather it is the outcome of a distorted world order.\nWe want to approach the discussion about the refugees by posing critical political and moral questions about the current global state of affairs\, immigration laws and the grave injustices that contribute to worsening the crisis\, with a special focus on the Syrian refugees’ case and the European and Norwegian response to these questions.\nWhy is the metaphor Palestinization of Syrian refugees relevant? What are the historical commonalities between the Palestinian refugees and Syrian refugees today? How do the refugee laws in neighboring countries affect the living conditions of Syrian refugees? How is the political debate in Norway framing the issue of Syrian refugees? These are some of the questions that will be addressed in the panel. \nHanne Heszlein-Lossius Medical doctor currently an intern doctor at Haraldsplass sykehus in Bergen. Henne also has a bachelor in journalism. She was part of a group of health care workers who started “Helsehjelp for papirløse” i Bergen\, a medical centre that provides medical care for immigrants in Bergen (papirløse innvandrere)\, also working there as a volunteer doctor. She started the Facebook page “Har du plass til en ekstra i hjemmet ditt” in May 2015 as a response to the ongoing debate on how Norway should help Syrian refugees. \n\n\nLine Khateeb is a Norwegian-Palestinian and was in the period 2008-2012 head of the Palestine Committee of Norway. The last three years she has been working in the Norwegian Organisation for Asylum seekers (NOAS)\, giving legal assistance and guidance to asylum seekers and doing policy work. She has a master in Middle Eastern studies from the University of Oslo. \n\n\nŞenay Özden is a cultural anthropologist and a researcher from Turkey. Her research areas include international migration\, refugees\, Turkish state’s refugee policies\, politics of humanitarian aid. She has numerous articles and reports published on Syrian refugees in Turkey. She is one of the founders of the Syrian Cultural House in Istanbul\, “Hamisch”. \n\nYassin al-Haj Saleh  is one of Syria’s most prominent intellectuals and political dissidents. In 1980\, while studying medicine in Aleppo University\, he was arrested by Hafez al-Assad regime because of his political activism. He remained in prison for 16 years (1980–1996). Yassin al-Haj Saleh writes on political\, social and cultural subjects relating to Syria and the Arab world. He has authored and edited five books about Syria. He is a co-founder of the Syrian online periodical “al-Jumhuriya” and the Syrian Cultural House in Istanbul “Hamisch”. He is a recipient of the Prince Claus Award for 2012. \n\nThe panel will be moderated by Jørgen Jensehaugen. \n\n\nThe panel is followed by a screening of On the Bride’s SideA Palestinian poet and an Italian journalist meet five Palestinians and Syrians in Milan who entered Europe via the Italian island of Lampedusa after fleeing the war in Syria. They decide to help them complete their journey to Sweden – and hopefully avoid getting themselves arrested as traffickers – by faking a wedding. With a Palestinian friend dressed up as the bride and a dozen or so Italian and Syrian friends as wedding guests\, they cross halfway over Europe on a four-day journey of three thousand kilometres. This emotionally charged journey not only brings out the stories and hopes and dreams of the five Palestinians and Syrians and their rather special traffickers\, but also reveals an unknown side of Europe – a transnational\, supportive and irreverent Europe that ridicules the laws and restrictions of the Fortress in a kind of masquerade which is no other than the direct filming of something that really took place on the road from Milan to Stockholm from the 14th to the 18th of November 2013.

SUMMARY:Assad’s Jihadist Allies
DESCRIPTION:While Media and western observers have mainly focused on the Sunni Jihadists moving to Syria to fight Assad or to join the “Islamic State” and fight Syrian opposition factions\, other Jihadists – Shi’a ones – have been deploying in larger numbers in the country to defend Assad and “protect” his regime.\nWhether from Iraq\, from Afghanistan and Pakistan\, or from the well-trained and equipped Hezbollah of Lebanon\, the Shi’a fighters were mobilized by Iran’s Revolutionary Guards and sent to fight in most strategic battles around Damascus the capital\, in Deraa in the South and in Aleppo in the North.\nWho are those “Shi’a Jihadists”? Why do they fight to defend the Assad regime? What are the ideological and political justifications for their fight? How does Iran recruit them? And What are the consequences of their “presence in Syria”? \n\n\nZiad Majed is an associate professor of Middle East Studies and Comparative Politics at the American University of Paris. He is the author of “Syria\, the orphaned revolution” (2013 in Arabic and 2014 in French). \n\n \nFacebook event: https://www.facebook.com/events/928071150573226/

SUMMARY:Syria Differently – The third Syrian narrative
DESCRIPTION:“Syria Differently” – The third Syrian narrative.\n12 February 2015 18:00 at Litteraturhuset \n\n			\n		\n				\n					\n				\n				\n					\n				\n				\n					\n				\n				\n					\n				\n				\n					\n				\n				\n			\n\n\nWith the picture of the Syrian struggle being blurred and the focus being shifted to Islamic extremism only\, it is important to bring back to the scene the increasingly neglected aspects of the Syrian ‘conflict’. “Syria Differently” provides an alternative image of Syria and the Syrian ‘conflict’ with thematic interest in the daily lives of ordinary civilians and their experience of the destruction of their country. \nProgram: \n18:00 We Cannot Go There Now\, My Dear (43 mins)\n19:00 Panel with Ziad Majed and Maren Næss Olsen (55 mins)\n20:00 The Immortal Sergeant (73 mins)\n21:30 False Alarm (58 mins) \nWe Cannot Go There Now\, My Dear\nA documentary film by Carol Mansour (2014) \nPalestinian refugees living in Syria have been severely affected by the war. Thousands have fled Syria seeking refuge in Lebanon becoming double-refugees. It is the second or even third time that they lose everything and find themselves once more homeless and stateless. \nThis film tells part of their story; where memories are awakened between one exodus and the other\, while loss invades everything striking the very self. A story where lives are continuously being rebuilt and improvised awaiting the return. \n \nPanel with Ziad Majed and Maren Næss Olsen:\nCovering Syria: images\, terminology\, and the role of Media \nA discussion about how most Media outlets covered Syria in the last three years\, and how this coverage influenced the emotions and the political stances of large segments of the public opinion in different western countries. \n \nZiad Majed is an Associate Professor at the American University of Paris\, teaching Middle East studies and writing on Lebanese\, Syrian and Arab affairs as well as on political Islam\, political transitions and crises. \n  \nThe Immortal Sergeant\nA documentary film by Ziad Kalthoum (2014) \n \nAfter he completed his mandatory military service\, the filmmaker was held in retention as the revolution unfurled in his country. His military rank was that of a sergeant. During these times\, he would go back to his home\, located in the middle of Damascus city\, take off his military uniform and return to his normal life\, working as an assistant director with the filmmaker Mohammed Malas. To make sense of this schizophrenic situation\, he decides to take his camera and start shooting a ‘making-of’ that will eventually go beyond Malas’ film. \nFalse Alarm\nA documentary film by Firas Zbib (2014) \nIt is a documentary about revolution\, exile\, death\, hope\, victory and defeat. Told by young Syrians\, filming each other’s journeys and holding on to their cameras like they were the only proof of existence\, it is a story about a country that has become unrecognizable to its own inhabitants. \nThe documentary follows them through the laughter and the tears\, until it is no longer clear whether they are happy to have found their freedom or sad that the revolution no longer resembles them. www.falsealarm-movie.com \n \nSponsor:\n \nPartners:
