- Description
President Bashar al-Assad holds a notice that reads 'Assad regime guilty of crimes against humanity' and considers this 'technically impossible as all Syrian citizens who criticize [his] rule automatically forfeit the right to be considered human'. Context: Syrian forces are pounding the city of Homs in a sustained attack that has lasted for days. The United States proposed an international coalition to support Syria's opposition Sunday after Russia and China blocked a U.N. attempt to end nearly 11 months of bloodshed, raising fears that violence will escalate. Rebel soldiers said force was now the only way to oust President Bashar Assad, while the regime vowed to press its military crackdown. [Associated Press Feb 5 2012]
