Confession under torture: from the files of the Free Syrian Army

Notice how the answers change after the threats are issued.  And notice that he was made to confess that Bashshar Al-Asad and Mahir Al-Asad personally gave them instructions to kill people.  He was asked whether he slit the throats of women, and he said: no.  But when the torturer yelled at him, he changed his answers. You call those criminals revolutionaries? It is an insult to revolutions everywhere to refer to those as revolutionaries.  Those are the twins of the torturers of the Syrian regime.  And Western academics sit on panels debating what kind of weapons those require.

PS I need someone to translate this for me.
PPS Somebody said on my wall on Facebook that this guy may not even be an Air Force intelligence guy, and that he is in fact a perfume vendor from Homs.
