We’ve reached a new low in state terrorism.
Today, 13 demonstrators who were killed Friday during a march in Homs were buried.
After the burial, when the funeral followers were leaving the cemetery, the Syrian security forces fired on them, killing 5 more people.
Apparently, it is now a crime in Syria to attend a funeral for one's friends.
President al-Assad seems to be deaf to the world of his citizens and deaf to worldwide opinion. Even his allies in the Turkish government have now called on him to stop the killings and try to find a negotiated way out of the mess he’s got himself into before it’s too late.
Thursday, President Obama told him to lead the democratic reform or “get out of the way.”
How long will it take before someone makes an offer that a-Assad cannot refuse?
