This article focuses on the political developments in Syria. Hafez Al-Assad was recently re-elected for a fourth seven-year term as President of Syria. Damascus has a friendly rivalry with Aleppo about which of them is the oldest continuously inhabited city in the world. The city of Hamah in 1982 witnessed its own share of life interruption. Nobody knows quite how many men and boys of military age were made an end of during that year's uprising of the Muslim Brotherhood, but it could be as many as 20, 000.
