A competition among killers of Syrian civilians: "the number of alleged civilian casualties in events carried out by the U.S.-led coalition has exceeded the death toll of attacks launched by Russia"

"U.S.-led coalition airstrikes in Iraq and Syria may have already killed 1,484 civilians in just Iraq and Syria this month alone, more than three times the number killed in President Barack Obama’s final full month in office, according to British monitoring group Airwars. For the first time, the number of alleged civilian casualties in events carried out by the U.S.-led coalition has exceeded the death toll of attacks launched by Russia."  Yet, when Syrian people are killed by US and its allies or by Syrian rebels, they receive no sympathy from Western correspondents and journalists, academics, and human rights organizations.
