Just over two weeks in, Syria’s ceasefire again took a tough blow today when a suicide bomber attacked the Zein al-Abidin Mosque in the capital city of Damascus, killing at least 11 people and wounding 28. Official reports said that security forces were among the dead.
Reports say that the attacker was wearing an explosive belt, detonated on the main road, just as a crowd of worshipers was leaving the mosque.
So far no specific group has taken credit for the attack, but the Assad regime has vowed to identify the attacker. It is believed that the attack was carried out by one of the rebel factions in the nation, and could well be one of those affiliated with al-Qaeda in Iraq (AQI).
Interestingly enough, the violence led to new condemnations at the UN for the regime for failing to “live up to its promises.” Western nations are pushing for a military attack if the ceasefire collapses, and many are openly arming and funding the rebels.

Yes, of course the FedGov and its auxiliaries are condemning Assad's government, because, as the supporters of the US version of tyranny insist that everyone believe for this particular case, suicide bombings are the preferred tactic of oppressive governments seeking to enforce their will on helpless people.
In all seriousness, I have absolutely given up on hoping that there is anything redeeming to be found in Americans. They just plain suck for buying this garbage at wholesale rates.
It's like the people in Nazi Germany, if we are to believe the western version of things. They didn't dare say anything against the monstrosities perpetrated by Hitler. Afterwards, they paid dearly. I must recognize the Germans faced their fate courageoulsy though. I wonder if other "exceptional" nations will do the same. From their whinings, it's evident they won't.
There are those who makes money out of all this having a seat at the US senat or for that matter in England. From second world war to present Syria war created by the westren terminology in "democracy" which have shown to be a falsified matter and nothing els. Since then nothing has changed, the very same people using their last resort by enggaing Sauids and UAE tyrants regime and their paid mercinarise, US and EU is very well aware of the situation cooperating with those who are not for peace nor peace is in their agenda. Hillary Clinton, Obama, Cameron,Turkish government so as Israelies and Jordanians are well into this mess, they either have to admit that Syria crises is a lost bet or continue to see what well come out of all this. Here is the fact in what a falsified democracy shoiws its true face, that their democracy in general is not functioning where in action making all that wrong decisions lying about democracy.
Terrorism glorified, and supported by the West! What is so shocking about that? Terrorists turned freedom fighters in order to do a little bombing and regime change? Kosovo scenario copied to perfection. And before that Bosnia, Croatia, Rwanda. But the population always sees only the last reincarnation of the formula, and every time — people fall for it. Iran formula is Iraq warmed over. Afghanistan, a Vietman i miniature. Spreading war in Pakistan — remember Cambodia and Laos. Now, if we leave Afghanistan, the geostrategy masters believe that dominos will fall in Asia. We cannot not cause the "birth pangs of the New Middle East", the famous Condi Rice thought. And we cannot "abandon" Balkans, lest the Europe would actually be free. And Libya was getting dangerous as the Africa was starting to think too high of itself. And we even fixed that annoying regime in Ivory Coast. What is new?
Damned if you do, damned if you don't. Which begs the question: What kind of a lunatic would bomb his own people, in the capitol city no less, and then risk having international parasites howling for his blood? Answer: Not the current regime but actors funded and aided by these very same foreign entities.
