15. What I cannot understand

Tue May 29, 2012, 04:43 PM

May 2012

is why would Assad in the face of international pressure and UN visitation carry out the massacre. I know most people think he is a mad man but even mad men tend not to do things that will get em killed and sodomized ala Gaddafi. I am sorry to say this but I don't believe a word about this massacre cos all I know they could have used actor and just dead babies from the morgue to stage this.

And just lets assume he actually committed all those killings, why leave the evidence for the opposition to video tape? they are just infants, just put em all in a nap sack and take em out with your pickup truck. This is babies in incubator all over again and lets all hope the world doesn't fall for it once again
