Secretary of State Hillary Clinton expressed official “outrage” today at the reports of a massacre in the Syrian village of Tremseh, which rebels claimed yesterday killed over 250 people and involved a pro-regime militia conducting mass executions.
Clinton referred to the rebel claims as “credible reports” and later “indisputable evidence” that Bashar Assad was to blame for the deaths, slamming the UN Security Council for not having forced a regime change yet.
The UN statement also blamed the Assad regime for the killings, though locals have changed the story a few times since Thursday night, and are now saying 103 people were killed, not “over 250” and insisted they were all killed by artillery, not militias.
Clinton insisted that history would “judge the Security Council” if it didn’t immediately accept Western proposals for regime change, French President Francois Hollande also slammed Russia and China for opposing their resolutions against Assad, saying that it was “damaging their interests.”
What happened in Tremseh, is, as always, a matter of intense speculation, as no independent media is on the ground and UN observers, which had previously thrown into doubt other rebel claims of regime massacres, don’t seem to be in the mix. The Syrian state media yesterday blamed a rebel faction for the killings.
Rebels, aka terrorists and criminal elements, can report anything they please, and she can have an outrage anytime, BUT:
The UN was created to preserve peace, not to change sovereign governments by war. You expect someone who’s appointed as foreign minister to know that.
"Hillary Clinton expressed official “outrage” …, officially is she also outraged at what us militarism have done to Iraqis, what israel is dong to Palestinians or for that matter what us militarism is doing to Afghani and Pakistani people killing innocent people randomly, or what the us might army have done to the people in Falujah Iraq, using all that chemicals killing thousands upon thousands and injured man women and children for life, is she outraged when her husband started killing thousand upon thousands of of innocent people in Yugoslavia, is she outraged in what Bush regime done to the people of Iraq killing millions Iraqis or for that matter her sister in rank Madeline Albright done to Iraqi babies…. Is she outraged.., off course she outraged on UN because she has lost a bet on betting for regime change in Syria.
Her outrage really rages but for the wrong reasons. She is outraged at China and Russia for standing on her way and not allowing her to do what her outrage requires her to do. I guess Putin and Hu Jintao's behaviour also outrages her, but they are too much for her puny outrage.
So much outrage. It's outrageous, really.
Syrian Army has killed a large number of anti-government terrorists who were behind the killing and wounding of dozens of people in the west of the country.And of cource, the foreign-backed armed gangs have announced that they are adopting a strategy of carrying out assassinations to achieve their objectives….Hitlary Clinton – US "Goebbles" – is desparate….peter czech
Billary, the Dual Being, just keeps making an ass out of itself every day.
Frau Clinton needs to be ousted.
Time for regime change in Washington?
Warning………….. Syria Cannot Be Peaceful Until Hillary and her Neocon MOLE Israeli first-er "spokesperson" Victoria Nuland are OUSTED………!!!!!!!!!!!

The American people need to wake up and smell the rotten smell coming from state department, they need to demand in writing for ousting these sorceress sisters from UN to where Hillary Clinton is seating. The US democratic party, if is not bound by the rule of vulture capitalism and US militarism system and is truly about democracy, needs to do the same. ??????
the cardiac kid huffing, puffing, stomping, drooling, purple red outraged — again
insisted that history would “judge[…]" And who would that be? …why doesn't 'national security' judge them?…he's not exactly non-judgemental…
ITS NOW OFFICIAL: I MISS CONDI RICE
…and believe me, it took MUCH to bring me to this depressing realization.
I just posted a comment and it appeared, then I turned off the computer and came back on, my comment had disappeaed. Do you play the same game with posters whose comment you don’t like? They can see their comments, but if they turn off the computer and then turn it back on. lo and behold, no comment. This is cheating!!!!!!!!!!!
I can expose you on other sites!

Hillary seems to be everywhere in the Mid East hectoring everyone (except Israel, of course) to do what she demands. Hillary reminds me of the old sarcastic comment that used to be made about Eleanor Roosevelt; "What is the difference between Eleanor and the Panama Canal? – Answer – the Panama Canal is a busy ditch". I tthink Hillary deserves the comment more.
