More than 100 killed in Syrian violence today
At least 180 people were found dead in Syria on Monday, victims of the ongoing civil war, according to the Local Coordination Committees of Syria, a network of opposition activists.
The group said 117 people were killed in the capital of Damascus and its suburbs, including 60 people who were found in Moadamiah. Many of those victims had signs of torture, the LCC said.
The news comes as Lakhdar Brahimi, the U.N.-Arab League envoy to Syria, has been working to arrange a cease-fire.
CNN is unable to independently verify casualty numbers because of Syrian government restrictions and the intensity of the fighting.
I wonder just what will be on Bashar al-Assads agenda, after he kills off all of his citizens. Necrophillia?
Yuck, JF, but it does seem he's intent on killing all of Syria's citizens...
Enough, already!
There are a number of non-citizen Sunni jihadists participating in this so-called rebellion. So it's not just "his people" who are dying. Don't know if there's a side to root for here!
Doesn't matter if their Syrian citizens or not...enough with the bloodshed already!!!!!
Banasy:
I bad. I sorry. I be back later.
Agreed @ Portland Tony, and theres still no certainy thats its not the rebels killing the citizens either. One thing is certain, neither side is going to give in willingly no matter how many UN envoys try to call a cease fire.
180 dead, People got used to it now. It doesn't make headline news anymore.
The Turkish military needs to take action and finish off the syrian regime before more civilan lifes are lost. The world is sitting back not helping the citizens of turkey. The world powers are more worried about Israel and there own economy then the citizens of Syria. Joseph Stalin Killed millions of russians who did not agree with him did the world stop him no. The great powers have two choices let a tragedy happen or take action and stand for the people. If foreign nations dont take action to end the violence the people who want to be free of the tyrant Bashar al-Assad will never respect foreign nations because why would they respect someone who never helped them when they needed them most. If you dont work to end the violence then you dont stand for justice.
