BASHAR THE BUTCHER CONTINUES TO SHED BLOOD

Residents in the Syrian city of Aleppo woke up today to the grim discovery of scores of human corpses dumped in a nearby canal controlled by government forces loyal to Syrian President Bashar a-Assad. The corpses of men, mostly in their 20's and 30's, littered the canal, and by local accounts in the aftermath of the massacre, bore bullet wounds consistent with summary executions. Mass executions are nothing new from the regime of Bashar the Butcher, who has already killed over sixty thousand Syrian citizens in an attempt to squash the massive uprising against him, but Bashar's brutality appears to get more and more depraved as days go by. We can only pray for a speedy end to the bloodshed and hope that the Syrian President's days are numbered too. If not, sooner or later, there won't be any Syrian citizens left.
