Description

A Muslim mother holding an infant and her young daughter are seen walking through a street that has been badly damaged and littered with rubble. The daughter asks her mother why Muslims are not storming Syrian embassies around the world given that Assad's forces are killing thousands of Syrian civilians like themselves. Context: The civil war in Syria had caused tens of thousands of Muslim civilian casualties, most of them by the forces of Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad. While there were no protest against these actions by Muslims violent demonstrations outside U.S. embassies world-wide by Muslims took place at the same time to protest the American release of a film that was deemed derogatory to the Islamic prophet Mohammed.
