There is no question that the Syrian Army crimes in Homs are comparable to Lebanese Army crimes in Nahr Al-Barid: but the latter was probably more unrestrained as it used planes and helicopter gunships to drop bombs on the camps. So the question is this: why did not Western human rights organizations raise a hue and cry over Lebanese Army crimes? Were their Western academic experts expressing outrage at the Lebanese Army crimes? And did Human Rights Watch issue strong statements against the crimes of Lebanese Army--notwithstanding its political flirtations with March 14 cabinet? And why there were no Facebook groups dedicated to the victims in Nahr Al-Barid? Were people back then discussing options for sending arms to the Palestinians in the camp? This entire affairs wreaks of hypocrisy and it has--again--not one thing to do with the plight of the Syrian people. Neither Russia nor the US (not the Arab potentates) care one bit about the Syrian people.
