Sectarian war crimes in `Adra

As usual, Syrian rebels committed yet another war crime in `Adra but there was not one mention that I saw in the US press.  Typically, the lousy Human Rights Watch office in Beirut was too busy peddling propaganda talking points for the Fee Syrian Army.  The last two years did more to discredit Western human rights organizations than the last few decades in my estimation. The connection between those organizations and the US government's agenda is too obvious to ignore.  Those organizations are what the US governments refers to as "public diplomacy" for its role around the world.  Even the propagandistic, Qatari-funded Syrian Observatory for Human Rights confirmed the massacres but typically deflated the number of victims by scores.  Apparently, your glorious Syrian rebels called on `Alawites and Druzes from loudspeakers to gather: and then they shot the men and boys and then "transferred"--a new term for the kidnapping by Syrian rebels--to anther area.
