So,these Syrian thugs are now using civilians as a tool for bargaining?Using innocent people as human shields is a war crime and i hope the ICC is monitoring the situation.

These terrorists in every city,took civilian as hostage and forced them to participate in anti regime demonstrations.One of their dirty war tactics is to load a car with explosives and force some innocent hostage(civilian ) to ride the car back to government forces' check point and detonate the car on the spot.

It is painfully clear that the west must agressively push weapons into Syria through Turkey.  These foreign terrorists have gone too far.  Anyone who can show a Syrian ID should be provided with high quality sniper rifles, rpg, anti-tank, a SAMs so that the innocent people can assist the assad regime in defeating any foreign terrorists.  Sinse Assad never lies and he says that all Syrians are behind him then we must completely flood Syria with weapons.  That way the foreign terrorists will be quickly driven out.

Do Not allow the terrorists to escape (unregistered) wrote in #2
Syria must not allow the terrorists to escape. The terrorists me be destroyed totally-100%Long live Great Syria-- free and secular!!!!! I applaud your enthousiasm but wouldn't it be better to offer the Homs terrorists a fully quarenteed save passage to Turkey for the sake of the hostages? They can even ask one of their friends to provide them with an escort. I think you shouldn't bring them in a position where they have nothing to loose.

Wake up guys look around you look at Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Afghanistan..… and you know where all this is leading to. Do not be fooled by the mossad and the CIA agents, these agents will crush you under their boots once you do your work and they finish with you.

Patriotic Americans and GLobal non-Zionist citizens should heap SHAME,SCORN and CONDEMNATION on Hillary Clinton, Joe Liberman, John McCain and Barrack Obama who refer to these Syrian terrorist warcriminals as their 'friends'.

It 's no surprise these USA/Israeli/Saudi supplied mercenary's are paid to shoot women, children to blame on the parent government. Failing that, their money dries up and their campaign is canceled. Just as in the USA CIA directed Libya War, prisoners some of which were alleged to have murdered USA/NATO soldiers in Afghanistan were released from Afghanistan,Iraqi and UK prisons to fight against Gadhafi. Now the same is being conducted to fight against Assad.

One of the Libyan 'Rebel' commanders had reportedly killed a large number of USA soldiers in Iraq as well as in Afghanistan. Such are the utterly corrupt John McCain and Joe Liberman 'friends'.

Th e Good News tonight is the enormous ongoing USA/UK/EU-Zone recession is now impacting the Satanically evil Zionist ordered/directed endless wars, starving their war machines funding, budgets and beginning to gut defense contractors.

The tried to use the Houla masacre to sway public opinion for foreign military intervention, claiming in the MSM of worldwide outrage but when the truth came out that the rebels were behind the massacre and those murdered where Alawites and Shites who refused to join the rebellion the CNN, BBC, FOX, MSNBC, Aljazeera, Alrabiya all abandoned that line and started lieing through David Cameron that Putin said that Assad should step down.

@CON, did you read the the part where is says he gets his info from many sources from the people in the know? you can't be selective in your reading.
IN REPLY: I did. This was the same quote that accompanied another story filed by Chris Horstal about the Syrian 'opposition'. It looked like a cut-and-paste job, which is sloppy journalism.  If, as he says, he has 'many sources on the ground.....some well known people', then repeating it in each and every story diminishes rather than adds to authenticity in my view.I agree with some of what he says but it's he who needs to be 'selective' with his reports especially as the western based media-mafia are going full throttle with their disinformation campaign. Regards.

RT and the Russian government has been the only mature parties in this whole crisis and have gain my unsolitied respect. Both, have remain neutral over blaming any side of this fight, yet have reminded the world that we still have international institutions where disagreements can still be discussed, settled and peace can be ensured.Syria, is still a charatered member of the United Nations and a legal sovereign government experiencing a violent western-back terrorist campaign that needs the help of the world or atleast the acknowledgement that they have the right to protect themsleves like all other nations.

This is just more propaganda on behalf of the Assad regime. The people of Syria have been getting murdered by their own government simply because after 40 years of oppression by the same family they have demanded democracy and freedom. The only help the people have received is by soldiers who have seen first hand what is happening and defected to help protect them. Assad says they are terrorists because the oppose his dictatorship. The people will get their freedom eventually, problem is how much death and destruction Assad will cause before he leaves.
