"There were unconfirmed reports that Syrian security forces were conducting...summary executions in the neighborhood." This is hilarious. The reports are confirmed and yet they are fit to print in the Times. Do you think that we will ever read in the Times something like this: "there were unconfirmed reports of summary executions by Israeli occupation forces"? Also, Saudi and Qatari media had different "unconfirmed reports": they said that Syrian soldiers executed prisoners by cutting their throats with knives. You can say anything. No need for sources or evidence. I told you: it is a matter of time before we hear that Syrian troops dropped a nuclear weapon on Baba Amr. BBC the other day hosted an "activist" who insisted that Baba Amr was bombed from the air. You know how easy it is to shoot videos of planes bombing from the air?
