The women and children of Bab Amr, Homs make a desperate plea to the world following fresh attacks on the city. Heavy shelling can be heard in the background as the women and children of Bab Amr ask, “Where is the Arab world”.

There may be the claim that Syria is a sovereign nation - well women and children are sovereign human beings, and the massacre of these unarmed and unprotected people is a war crime, and deserves some action (sanctions, safety area) by other human beings.
