Tadmur (Arabic: تدمر; also spelled Tadmor and Tudmur; in English known as Palmyra) is a city in central Syria, administratively part of the Homs Governorate. It is located in an oasis in the middle of the Syrian Desert 215 kilometres (134 mi) northeast of Damascus and 180 kilometres (110 mi) southwest of the Euphrates River. The ruins of ancient Palmyra, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, are situated about 500 metres (1⁄3 mi) southwest of the modern city centre. Relatively isolated, the nearest localities include Arak to the east, al-Sukhnah further to the northeast, Tiyas to the west and al-Qaryatayn to the southwest.
Tadmur is the administrative center of the Tadmur District and the Tadmur Subdistrict. According to the Syria Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS), the city had a population of 51,323 and the subdistrict a population of 55,062 in the 2004 census. Tadmur's inhabitants were recorded to be Sunni Muslims in 1838. During the Syrian Civil War, the city's population significantly increased due to the influx of internally-displaced refugees from other parts of the country.
Lokman Mohsen Slim (Arabic: لقمان محسن سليم), born 1962, is a Lebanese publisher and independent social and political activist, who lives and works in the southern suburbs of Beirut, Greater Beirut, South Lebanon, and the Bekaa Valley. He is also an internationally recognized commentator on Lebanese and Middle East politics.
Lokman Slim was born in Beirut in 1962, where he lived until moving to France in 1982 to study philosophy at the Sorbonne. He returned to Beirut in 1988. Two years later, he founded Dar al Jadeed Publishing House, which publishes Arabic literature and essays of controversial content. Its publications range from books banned by the Lebanese General Security to the first Arabic translations of the writings of Muhammad Khatami, the former Iranian reformist president, which generated controversy within the Shia community in Lebanon. Several of Slim's articles, essays, and translations have been published in English, French, and Arabic newspapers and books.
Palmyra (/ˌpælˈmaɪrə/; Aramaic: ܬܕܡܘܪܬܐ Tedmurtā ; Arabic: تدمر Tadmor) is an ancient Semitic city in present-day Homs Governorate, Syria. Archaeological finds date back to the Neolithic period and the city was first documented in the early second millennium BC. Palmyra changed hands on a number of occasions between different empires, before becoming a subject of the Roman Empire in the first century AD.
The city grew wealthy from trade caravans; the Palmyrenes, renowned merchants, established colonies along the Silk Road and operated throughout the Roman Empire. Palmyra's wealth enabled the construction of monumental projects, such as the Great Colonnade, the Temple of Bel and the distinctive tower tombs. The Palmyrenes were a mix of Amorites, Arameans and Arabs. The city's social structure was tribal, and its inhabitants spoke Palmyrene (a dialect of Aramaic); Greek was used for commercial and diplomatic purposes. The culture of Palmyra, influenced by Greco-Roman culture, produced distinctive art and architecture that combined eastern and western traditions. The city's inhabitants worshiped local deities and Mesopotamian and Arab gods.

Palmyra (Tadmor تدمر in Syria) at sunset and sunrise... Palmyra was in ancient times an important city of central Syria, located in an oasis 215 km northeast of Damascus and 120 km southwest of the Euphrates. It has long been a vital caravan city for travellers crossing the Syrian desert and was known as the Bride of the Desert. The earliest documented reference to the city by its pre-Semitic name Tadmor, Tadmur or Tudmur, is recorded in Babylonian tablets found in Mari. In the mid-first century, Palmyra, a wealthy and elegant city located along the caravan routes linking Persia with the Mediterranean ports of Roman Syria and Phoenicia, came under Roman control. During the following period of great prosperity, the Aramaean inhabitants of Palmyra adopted customs and modes of dress from b...

TADMOR ein Film von Monika Borgmann & Lokman Slim Eine Gruppe libanesischer Männer bricht das Schweigen über ihre langjährige Haft im berühmt-berüchtigten syrischen Gefängnis in Tadmor (Palmyra). Worte allein genügen nicht, um die Leugnung der Geschehnisse durch die syrische Regierung und ihre Alliierten zu widerlegen. Sie lassen diese Torturen ein weiteres Mal aufleben und inszenieren, als Gefangene und Wärter, das "Königreich des Wahnsinns und des Todes".

Into the fire I go, flames dancing before my eyes
Lust and desire, Satan's call, I can feel it burning, I can feel the fire
Inferno of glorious pain, the moon glows red as I cut open my veins
Eternity opens, I heed its call, take me beyond the underworld
My body is burning bright as the bells of doom chimes in the night
Lord of sin, guide me on my way as I face the gates of Hell
Kneeling before the endless flames, I'm one with the night, I broke my mortal chains
Blessed by Satan and ready for death, I enter the eternal fire...
Dwelling beyond the netherworlds
My life was just a dream
In death is where I find the truth of life
At one with the raging fires
I've reach my final end
