This was on the local news a while ago, but they made it sound like the UAE telecommunications authorities took it off, when it was actually google and apple after realising its a spying tool.

I never heard of this app or used it, but i really wonder why they would need something like this when the foreign laborers are beaten down anyway and most of the citizens are pretty much obedient and infantile to begin with to care about anything besides consumption.

There wasn't an appetite for "humanitarian intervention" the last time around. It was all just a bunch of hand wringing and concern trolling about the "humanitarian crisis" in Idlib, but there was never any teeth behind the threats against the Syrian government. What really stopped the offensive from happening the last go around was that the Syrian forces weren't ready for it.

Foreign powers who intervened in Syria could have put a stop to the war a long time ago by negotiating a peace deal and amnesty for their proxies, but instead everybody tried to make Idlib some kind of salafi petri dish that would keep festering on the face of Syria like a cancerous lump. This disaster is going to happen because nobody knows when to call it quits and accept that they lost the war.

the only relevant consideration to the general public anymore is whether it will involve additional units deploying overseas and whether it will involve US casualties from outside of the kind of special force units that are always deployed into conflicts like this. the last time there was a serious public appetite for anything else was on the eve of the Iraq invasion going south. much like happened after Vietnam, it'll be a bit before the MIC can gin up public support for another serious overseas deployment.
