The Massacre in Latikya Last Night

The Syrian killers probably thought nobody would be able to get it on video at night. But they were wrong. An amateur videographer was filming the demonstration, and was just about to go down to the street and join in, when the gunshots broke out. A young girl behind him started to scream, he pushed her down…

And yet the Syrian people, like the Iranian people, are judged unworthy of support from our so-called leaders. Even Jimmy Carter would have been more…American than this crowd.

Have a look. And then tell your elected representatives to demand action. Faster, please.

One of the most galling things about this Libyan misadventure is the lack of any explanation from the administration as to why the same “humanitarian considerations” don’t apply in Syria — or Iran, for that matter. At least in Syria, there are strong and immediate reasons for the US and the West to back the rebels.

If Samantha Power’s farcical “responsibility to protect” doctrine was the motivating reason in Libya, why not Syria?
