Syrian forces fire on protestors

In coverage of Syria, we find that Bashar Assad is giving a display of savagery:
AMMAN - Security forces shot dead at least 25 pro-democracy protesters in Syria on Friday, human rights campaigners said.

They were killed in suburbs and towns surrounding Damascus, in the central city of Homs and in the southern town of Izra'a, two established Syrian human rights organizations keeping a tally of civilian deaths told Reuters. Witnesses reported dozens injured in the deadly clashes.
They are really turning into a living hell there.

Update: more on the subject at Commentary.

Deluded people thought Assad would be a "reformer" in lifting the emergency laws?

The Syrian police state rests on the use of force. And it is happily willing to kills tens of thousands of its own people to remain in power.

Syria's unarmed population doesn't stand a chance against Baby Assad's secret police and army, which will defend his Alawite clan to the bitter end.
