Other examples: A pilot was burned alive, children were dismembered while alive, pregnant women’s bellies were slit open, fetuses were roasted or boiled in water, postal workers were filmed being thrown into the Asi River with children being made to assist. In the first month of these “movements,” a shop owner in Douma’s mosque courtyard was killed for refusing to close his shop on a strike Friday—this is just a drop in the ocean.
Do we forget the sieges of Al-Fu’ah, Kafriya, Nubl, and Al-Zahraa before them? What happened in Adra al-Omalia, where people were executed based on their sect, even if they didn’t carry weapons? The massacre at Akrama School, Homs, where dozens of children, parents, and teachers were targeted with a car bomb followed by a suicide bomber. Al-Tawba Prison in Eastern Ghouta—of the 7,000 detainees (as admitted), only two buses of survivors came out. Where are the rest? Were they crammed into tunnels and blown up, leaving their bodies buried in the rubble? Do we forget the terrorist bombings at Jableh National Hospital and the bus stations full of innocent civilians in Jableh and Tartous? Have you forgotten the 3,000 soldiers at Tabaqa Airport, most of whom were executed, with their corpses mutilated in a Nazi-style terror attack? The documented bombings in Daraa and its countryside, where soldiers were beheaded in Quneitra and western rural Damascus. (All documented in videos.) Bombing of civilians in Homs, along with staged dramas and plays when oil pipelines were blown up. Do you remember how they attacked all air defense sites, destroyed them, captured their personnel, and executed them by slaughtering and mutilating them, despite the fact that they had never fired a single shot except at hostile aircraft?Also worth noting: The families who fled to the Syrian coast from Hama, Idlib, Aleppo, and the eastern region due to war and have lived among their people on the coast have remained safe and respected to this day.
