After being denied for weeks the chance to flee while Syria and Russia bomb the shit out of them.

Nice.

It's amazing how Ohoh believes that the US created IS, but in fact it was Assad and Putin who drove people into the arms of extremist groups with merciless bombing campaigns , including the use of chemical weapons.

It's almost laughable how OhOh is now rushing to defend Putin in the face of his chemical attack in the UK and whinging about some imaginary fairy story where the UK is ignoring the OPCW, when in fact Vlad has done everything he can to stop the OPCW investigating the attacks in Syria.

Seven years ago, the towns of Douma, Kafr Batna, Saqba, and Harasta, in eastern Ghouta, were the sites of some of the first mass protests against Assad. The regime gradually lost control of the area in 2012, and civilians created local councils that provided municipal services. The following year, the Syrian regime began blocking the flow of food, medicine, and aid to the region. Hundreds died from lack of medical care or malnutrition, and those that survived paid exorbitant prices for rice, wheat, and other necessities. In August, 2013, in one of the most brutal acts of the war, the government attacked the suburb with sarin gas, killing an estimated fifteen hundred people. Popular support for the insurgent groups operating inside the area grew. Jaish al-Islam, an Islamist group, and Failaq al-Rahman, an offshoot of the Free Syrian Army, eventually emerged as the two most powerful opposition factions, and now rule most of eastern Ghouta.

What's really sad is that this rebellion would never have happened if Assad had not responded to minor civil disobedience with a campaign of government murder; what's even sadder is that Putin alone has blood on his hands for letting this psychopath continue to do it for seven years.

I was surprised it was being televised live to be honest.

Just checked again and it's offline and has been taken off the front page of RT News. Something may be wrong. A bad feed, mayhem on the streets ......

Back up again now.

So you were surprised that it was televised but you weren't surprised that they turned off the broadcast so they could start bombing again?

I accessed it 3 times. The first showed people congregating and walking along a dusty road, the second there was no connection and the third similar to the first.

I have no time to watch retched people dawdling along chatting, I see enough of that here.

...as fleeing refugees do, of course...

To be honest it looked like a typical Thai country market. Many pickups stationary with people in the back, people squatting in and by the side of the road. Nobody seemed particularly eager to move or maybe they were waiting around for somebody to tell them to move.

There are still three cameras working now. One of which appears to be drone at some height. Nothing moving on the two ground cameras.

He is of course correct.

Because the majority of the Syrian people are "regime-changers". Which is precisely why they were fighting for regime change in the first place.

Doh!

You're presuming they are all terrorists.

I'm presuming they are mostly Syrians who want free and fair elections.

Mind you, free and fair elections aren't something you're a big fan of eh?

I used to be, unfortunately there appearers to be very little difference in most countries, in what is delivered, by the pre-selected parties nowadays.

Slowly but surely the war is being won.
Syrian rebels agree to evacuate town in Ghouta: sources

"AMMAN (Reuters) - Syrian rebels will evacuate a besieged town in eastern Ghouta, opposition sources and officials and a military media unit run by the government’s ally Hezbollah said on Wednesday, the first such deal in the last rebel bastion near the capital.

Fighters from Ahrar al-Sham, which holds Harasta, agreed to lay down arms in return for safe passage to opposition-held northwestern Syria and a government pardon for people who wished to stay, the opposition sources said.

Some 1,500 militants and 6,000 of their family members will be transported to rebel-held Idlib province in two batches starting on Thursday, the Hezbollah military media unit said.


Russia’s Defence Ministry, which the opposition sources said had brokered the deal, said on Wednesday it had opened a new “humanitarian corridor” near Harasta but did not indicate whether this would be part of any rebel pullout deal.


The Syrian army has recaptured 70 percent of the territory that was under insurgent control in eastern Ghouta, and after weeks of bombardment residents are fleeing by the thousands.

The word you seek is "Genocide".

Estimates of deaths in the Syrian Civil War, per opposition activist groups, vary between 353,593 and 498,593.[1] On 23 April 2016, the United Nations and Arab League Envoy to Syria put out an estimate of 400,000 that had died in the war.

Of course you would.

That's simply because you don't like the simple truth that Assad, like his father before him (only with much greater success) has stayed in power by slaughtering his own citizens using his military, and with Putin's help.


I'll let you skim off a few thousand IS creeps, they were fair game.
