Blurb::"(Reuters) - Fears that Syria may slide into civil war are growing after a week when the government said over 120 servicemen were killed at a town near the Turkish border."


Any 'snowball' theories here?

1208306 2011-06-10 22:35:00 From what I gather from twitter accounts the 120 were traitor security people who were disobeying orders to attack the town so the army shot them.
Same thing has to happen in any army.

1208307 2011-06-10 23:18:00 Yeah - one cannot have insubordination, can one!

Still - military shooting civilians is not the best PR act. Pretty sure it'll come to that soon enuff in more places than are imagined right now.

Can one think of a place where one would NOT think that could happen? I can...... .
