Damascus suicide blasts kill 55, injure 372

I really doubt the target was a military installation, the so called freedom fighters are just terrorists. They have rejected a democratic path to solve the crisis

The so called "resistance" in Syria are the worst kind of extremist terrorists. They have no respect for human life nor law and justice. Hence Human Rights Watch as well as the Syrian people have repeatedly accused them of atrocities including rapes and executions of civilians.

Syria is under siege by a heavily armed extremist group and the people are suffering. It's no wonder that the Syrian police are doing everything they can to hunt these people down.

Every country would do the same if these types of terrorist bombings occurred in civilian areas.

Baby Assad doesn't need this aggravation.

Whoever did this is inhuman and sick, ...or misguided and led by someone inhuman and sick.

Ah, the glorious Syrian freedom fighters that Obama, Sarkozy et al are supporting in action... including the Western media. Are we proud yet?

@WilliB The Western media has learned from Libya. We do not blindly support these freedom fighters, that is why we haven't armed them. We are afraid it will be another state for terrorist groups to take over. We just want the violence to end, but this does not help anyone that supported the rebels (I did not in the first place, I just want the artillery to stop). Anyone who gives them weapons is literally supporting terrorism. Giving the innocents medical equipment is all that should be done.

@WilliB The Western media has learned from Libya.

Western NEVER learned.

We do not blindly support these freedom fighters,

It's just NOT possible - Russia and China said NO.

that is why we haven't armed them.

Yes you are. The so-called rebels are fully supplied from abroad

We are afraid it will be another state for terrorist groups to take over.

No - Russian Navy coming to Syrian coast - this means NO invasion

We just want the violence to end,

Very easy to achive -do not interfere in the internal affairs of Syria

but this does not help anyone that supported the rebels You means CIA ?

(I did not in the first place, I just want the artillery to stop). Easy

Anyone who gives them weapons is literally supporting terrorism

But who this anyone ? Anonymous?

Giving the innocents medical equipment is all that should be done.

Yes

@Olegek Indeed we have learned, there is little support for supplying weapons to these people in the American media. All there is discussion about is getting Assad to stop killing his people, that is all. I haven't heard a single person suggest we arm the rebels. I'm not European, I don't know what they are saying, but in America and Canada there is no support among the average person, which excludes crazy liberals.

Who supplies them?

I was also saying that hypothetically if anyone gives them weapon they support terrorism, not that we are. I oppose any such thing.

Russia is not going to invade Syria and protect the government. I never suggested the West would invade either, I am suggesting that in the event that the rebels took over, Al-Qaeda and their allies could take over. That is why we in North America at least do not support of the rebels, but just want the deaths to stop. For a long time the Syrian government was just killing protesters and that's not right. I definitely don't support bombings like this but I don't support the government's artillery shelling either.
