Report Says Syrian Government Torturing-Killing Thousands
I wonder how many heinous things will have to come out of Syria before the rest of the world says, "OK...we better get in there and stop the horror show."?
Now the pictures being viewed today by the world are starting to look an awful lot like Holocaust photos.
And if the report is to be believed, all these murdered, starved, mutilated bodies were done at the hands of the Syrian President, Bashar al-Assad.
Uh-oh....I smell a war-crimes tribunal coming....
A report compiled by three international war crimes prosecutors claims that the Syrian government is behind the "systematic killing" of approximately 11,000 detainees between March 2011 and August 2013.
The Guardian, which obtained access to the report, says that the source of the report's claims is a military police photographer who secretly worked with a Syrian rebel group before defecting and fleeing the country. In the process, the defector smuggled the images of "killed detainees" out of the country on memory sticks.
The defector, identified in the report as "Caesar," does not claim to have witnessed executions or torture himself. However, he describes the bodies of detainees, mostly young men, as being emaciated, blood-stained, and, in some cases, bearing signs of strangulation or electrocution.
The report claims that Caesar photographed as many as 50 bodies a day. The purpose of the photographs, according to the defector, was to allow a death certificate to be produced without allowing families of the deceased to see the body, as well as to confirm that orders to execute prisoners had been carried out. Families were usually told that their loved ones died from either a heart attack or "breathing problems."
The 31-page report was commissioned by a London-based law firm operating on behalf of the government of Qatar, which has financed and armed rebel groups in Syria and repeatedly called for Syrian President Bashar al-Assad to stand trial for war crimes. Two of the report's authors, Sir Desmond de Silva and David Crane, argued war crimes cases related to the 1991-2002 civil war in Sierra Leone, while the third author, Sir Geoffrey Nice, led the prosecution of former Serbian leader Slobodan Milosevic at The Hague.
A leading human rights group accused the U.S. and other world powers Tuesday of undermining efforts to bring Assad before the International Criminal Court.
The New York-based Human Rights Watch said the U.S. had focused too strongly on bringing the warring parties together for peace talks at the expense of putting "real pressure" on Assad's regime to end atrocities and hold those responsible to account.
The group also accused Russia and China of shielding their ally Syria from concrete action at the United Nations, such as arms embargoes.
"We cannot afford to wait for the distant prospect of a peace accord before the killing of 5,000 civilians a month comes to an end," Kenneth Roth, executive director of Human Rights Watch, told reporters as he presented the group's annual report in Berlin. "The mass atrocities being committed in Syria should be a parallel focus of the peace process."

Did you catch that part about the U.S. undermining efforts to bring Assad to court?? I wonder if that is true?
Yeah, I think it certainly could be. I think The West is looking at Libya, Tunisia, Sudan, and Egypt and coming to the conclusion that while Assad is a butcher and a strong-man dictator who crushes his foes and rules with fear....at least he is a civilized dictator who wears a suit, drives a Mercedes and has a good looking, Western dressed wife...as compared to the towel-headed, gun toting, burka wife in background, Muslim thugs who seem to take over these failed dictator states.
How long will the world stand to watch Muslims killing Muslims before they step in and be willing to put THEIR kids and treasure on the line to make them stop??
How much money would the world have to spend to put armies into Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, and other places where Muslims are butchering Muslims in an effort to make them stop??
And even if we could get hundreds of thousands of troops committed from dozens of countries who are willing to go stand in the gap and separate Sunnis, Shiites and other stripes of Islam....would that really stop the Satanic hatred of these death cults that ARE the definition of Islam??
IT IS NOT A RELIGION OF PEACE!! IT IS A SATANIC BELIEF SYSTEM THAT IS LEADING MILLIONS AND MILLIONS STRAIGHT TO HELL!! AND THE MORE THEY KILL EACH OTHER THE MORE SATAN HAS HIS WISH FULFILLED OF POPULATING HELL.
Through it all let's remember that our battle is not against flesh and blood humans but against Satan and his minions. We can't overcome that demonic army with bullets and guns but only through the Word of God and prayers of the saints.
Are we praying for these dark strongholds of the enemy?
