Red Cross resumes evacuation of people from Homs, Syria (VIDEO)
February 24, 2012 19:44
The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) has resumed attempts to evacuate people from the besieged Syrian city of Homs on Saturday. They have taken 27 people to safety in the last 24 hours.
@Wake up! I bet you don't even know what, when and who created the International red cross... Just because you don't like the west doesn't mean that aid organizations are owned by the west in some strange Hollywood movie... The Red Cross was created in Switzerland in 1863 by Henry Dunant. It was not created by any country but one man who witnessed horre ndous things at the battle of Solferino during the Second Italian war of Independence and decided to create an Organisation to help humans across the planet on a humanitarian basis. It is a non political organisation that helps people no matter what religion, race, sex, sexuality etc. Your thoughts have been corrupted by the conspiracies you probably read everyday.

You guys are seriously blaming the Red Cross now and calling it the enemy? You guys are COMPLETE idiots.RT = Rarely Trusted
R ed cross is made in the west so it`s owned by the west, all these organization made in the west is corrupt, Red cross are helping the people in the one hand, and arming the rebels in thi other hand, smart tactic don't you think!!!!
You call western countries warmongering -.-" But all of you call for Assad to kill, you call for continued arms shipment to Syria... You guys better take a good look at yourself! Wanting more death is just sick!
I am inspired by the Red Cross and think they are brave people who risk their lives to save people from the Terrorist in Syria. Jesus will have special place for those who die saving the victims of terrorists.
If Assad Snr was in power, he would have out smarted the west as he did for years, Assad Jnr will learn the hard way, but he will learn, and i hope defeat the real murderers of the west, what he needs is for all the expats on his side to go back and defend the country.
I would love to know what the west would do if someone did the same to them, oh i know, worse than what Assad is doing.
Whats the difference between arming the rebels or arming the regime? None at all, both are mad and shipments to either side will cause more bloodshed. A complete arms embargo should be imposed on Syria and no weapons of any sort should be allowed to enter. Weapons only lead to more death and misery for the ordinary Syrians. And in this case the heavier fire power more death will occur,

And unloading the trucks full of weapons before that?
The Russians, isnt it?. Actually, thats ships full Eurasian.
@Munby,
Act ually I do care. But apparently many of you don't respect opinions if they differ than yours. Saying that the majority of people in Syria support Assad is like saying that the majority of North Koreans supported Kim Jong Il... Most people will support someone if they are forced to.
