Intro: "Syrian security forces have opened fire on anti-government protesters in the city of Sanamin near Daraa, killing at least 20 people, according to one witness. 'There are more than 20 martyrs.... they [security forces] opened fire haphazardly,' the witness told Al Jazeera."

RSN Special Coverage: Egypt's Struggle for Democracy

 

Comments  

We are concerned about a recent drift towards vitriol in the RSN Reader comments section. There is a fine line between moderation and censorship. No one likes a harsh or confrontational forum atmosphere. At the same time everyone wants to be able to express themselves freely. We'll start by encouraging good judgment. If that doesn't work we'll have to ramp up the moderation.

General guidelines: Avoid personal attacks on other forum members; Avoid remarks that are ethnically derogatory; Do not advocate violence, or any illegal activity.

Remember that making the world better begins with responsible action.

A number of civilians have been killed and wounded in southern Afghanistan following a NATO air raid targeting two vehicles that coalition forces believed to be carrying Taliban fighters.

In a statement on Saturday, the coalition said that it was investigating the incident, but did not release the number of dead and wounded.

Nato said the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) had called in an air attack on the two vehicles believing them to be carrying a Taliban leader and his associates, but later discovered they were transporting civilians... USA - it is sick to invade another country and kill civilians.
And as Syria goes - when will Israel return Golan Heights?

So we will now bomb Syria.

Today protestors were beaten back in the streets of Great Britain. Please oh please miss Big Ben and Westminster Abbey when we start bombing there.
