After surviving ISIS and a civil war, these Syrian women built a female-only village

By Loumay Alesali and Christina Zdanowicz, CNNChat with us in Facebook Messenger. Find out what's happening in the world as it unfolds.

Fatma Emin's life changed forever when her husband died in the Syrian war, killed by ISIS in a land mine attack. It triggered a series of events that would bring her to Jinwar, a village built and inhabited by women -- a refuge for Syrian women and their children fleeing a rigid family structure, domestic abuse and the horrors of civil war.Jinwar means"women's land" in the Kurdish language. The village welcomes Syrian women and children, regardless of religion, ethnicity and political views. It is a mosaic of diverse women who want to experience freedom, democracy and a new form of life.

Nice

Welcomed one

For Isis to hide

I give it 60-80 years.

A.........name by struggle

Great

The one generation village is what they want then so be it. Why not help them build?

With a subway line too? Looks massive to get around

while Syrian men enjoy European welfare.

Nice but now it will be singled out and destroyed by the culture that has created ISIS! 🤬

Valiant efforts. Lots of respect to those women. But would this arrangement be pragmatic for long? After all both sexes have roles in a society. And the success of a community depends on how well they can perform those duties through cooperation and mutual understanding.

That village won't be around long. 🙄

It won't last more than a year, especially in Syria

Perhaps we should send them some cats?

again CNN promoting extremist feminism...anti MEN rhetoric

for how long will that female only village last. this reminds me of a play called lysistrata.

Great!

Just in: Democratic President candidate Sen. Kristen Gillibrand ( NY) pledged at a campaign rally Saturday to have a person with a disability serve in her cabinet if she wins the Presidency

Who will creampie them then

But who opens all the jars?

Perspective | What links ISIS-inspired terrorists and white supremacist ones like the Poway shooter?Perspective: What links ISIS-inspired terrorists and white supremacist ones like the Poway shooter? Whether is trumpian or Islamist, they share the same ignorance using religion as an excuse to get off on their mass murder, mass mayhem and just plain evil impulses. Nobody likes to think of themselves as a bad person. But actions are what defines you. Your thoughts about it only add or subtract from the consequences later. They all live on hate!!!
