Brutal, belligerent, bashing by soldiers and security services persecute the poor Syrian people.

The situation in Syria has been getting worse over the past few days.  Innocent civilians, protesters and people with legitimate grievances have been mercilessly murdered by Syrian government forces, sanctioned by military and political leaders.  The bloodshed and the bitterness call for UN intervention.  Soldiers have apparently defected rather than continue such bloody violence against the civilian population.  The Syrian ambassador to  France, Lamia Shakkour, allegedly resigned in protest against the Assad regime.  Reports now deny that a resignation took place.

Syria is in turmoil as thousands are fleeing for their lives, having crossed borders to settle in refugee camps.  The UN seems to be dithering while killings continue on the Syrian streets.
