EXTREMELY GRAPHIC Video: Syria Massacre (The Young Turks)
“A video uploaded to YouTube by Syrian activists purportedly shows the bloodied bodies of dozens of small children lying on a carpet floor following a massacre in Houla. On Friday, Syrian security forces reportedly assaulted the town in Homs province, killing at least 108 people including dozens of women and children…Witnesses attributed the killings to thugs loyal to the regime of Syrian president Bashar Assad…”.* The Young Turks host Cenk Uygur breaks it down.
*Read more here from The Huffington Post.I told you that I would never refrain from posting graphic content coming out of Syria in order to show the reality of the situation. Well, ladies and gentlemen, it does not get much worse than this.
I urge you to use extreme caution before viewing this video, which depicts dead, bloody children, some with holes blown in their bodies. However, it’s extremely important to get a sense of the reality of the situation. This is it.
