Who is brain-dead? You asked me to do basic research, here is some more. Over half the population of Syria displaced, which the entire world knows. This is possible only by the power of the state.

'As of December 2022, a minimum of 580,000 people are estimated to be dead; with 13 million Syrians being displaced and 6.7 million refugees forced to flee Syria.
The Ba'athist government and its security apparatus have arrested and tortured numerous repatriated refugees, subjecting them to forced disappearances and extrajudicial executions. Around 12 million Syrians live under conditions of severe food insecurity.[8] More than two-thirds of the displaced are women and children.[3][9]'
