At least 24 more people were killed today across Syria in a series of crackdowns and a reported attack on Syrian troops in central Syria. The vast majority of the slain were civilians, but Syria’s state media also claimed six soldiers killed in an ambush.
The violence marks continued public protests against the Assad regime and months of security forces attacking the demonstrators under the assumption that the attacks will eventually end the nationwide rallies.
A new offensive was also launched in the city of Hama, which demonstrators believe is an attempt by the regime to track down the city’s Attorney General, who disappeared in what protesters are calling a high profile defection but which regime officials still believe is a kidnapping.
Whichever the case, the violent crackdowns have taken a major toll on the Assad regime’s already shaky international standing, and the loss of officials is just going to bolster the belief that the government is slowly but surely crumbling in the face of massive opposition.
This should be happening in America but the civilians and about half the military will stand together.Buy the way America has the most armed population in the world that was the forfathers way for the citizens to stand against a tyranicle government.All Americans have to do is follow the law the constitution and they will again be free.
The problem here is that anyone who cares about human rights is in a dilemma, as I am. On the one hand I wish that Asad would already be gone, he has shown himself to be a ruthless murderer, no different than his father. Yet, on the other hand, it is difficult to ignore all the ill meaning hands, especially outside ones, that are agitating to rip Syria into pieces.
Given current political trajectory, the Syrian people are damned if they do and damned if they don't. To use an age-old cliche, they are stuck between a rock and a hard place, a ruthless dictator on the one hand, and both Israel and the US on the other hand.
Let me get this wrapped around my head.
The article says as a matter of fact 24 "more" people killed. Yet when it comes to Syrian troops killed it is qualified as "reported by state media". Why is it written in stone that 24 people killed. What are the sources? This is typical of the reporting from Syria and Libya.
Yep. The Lefties are carefully ignoring this one whilst waiting in the wings to pounce at the slightest interference from their much-hated empire. Hypocrisy to the right and hypocrisy to the left, what's a guy to do?
Syria should let the media in if they are being acttacked and acting in self defencs.Imagine how America would kill in the same situation.Its time for a new government in America and in coutyrys how support there illegal wars.In the American civil war 750 thousand people died.They just do there best to make everyone look bad when they are the worst.They just lie good but we are seeing through there lies.Hope my post show and its not a wast of time.
Slowly but surely the Wahabi Salafies on the pay of the Saudi Arabian government who have infiltrated Syria through its borders with Iraq are being cleared out by the Syrian people and security forces. Bashar Assad remains the most popular and loved figure in Syria and he is going to remain so, no matter what gestures of good faith the pathetic Europeans make towards their Zionist masters, and no matter how many Wahabies are killed by the Syrian people and security forces. Syria will be known as the grave of Wahabism and the harbinger of the Saudi Arabian demise.
