President Obama is asking the American people for an air strike on Syria to help sworn enemies of the United States win a civil war! It’s an insane thing to do to help out groups with close ties to Al-Qaeda. Would FDR bomb the British on behalf of the Nazis?
New YorkTimes reports the Syrian rebels posed casually, standing over their prisoners with firearms pointed down at the shirtless and terrified men.The prisoners, seven in all, were captured Syrian soldiers. Five were trussed, their backs marked with red welts. They kept their faces pressed to the dirt as the rebels’ commander recited a bitter revolutionary verse.“For fifty years, they are companions to corruption,” he said. “We swear to the Lord of the Throne, that this is our oath: We will take revenge.”The moment the poem ended, the commander, known as “the Uncle,” fired a bullet into the back of the first prisoner’s head. His gunmen followed suit, promptly killing all the men at their feet.This scene, documented in a video smuggled out of Syria a few days ago by a former rebel who grew disgusted by the killings, offers a dark insight into how many rebels have adopted some of the same brutal and ruthless tactics as the regime they are trying to overthrow.More here
