OK, they had their Dead Baby moment. Frankly, see those hordes of able-bodied men of military age simply RUNNING AWAY fills me with disgust. Oh, save us, when do our benefits start. Like most third-world people, the bulk of the Syrian men would rather hide from the bombs than fight for freedom. Such people are doomed to be ruled by evil men with guns. Our ancestors risked death to be free, and some of them died. Yes, there are brave freedom fighters in Syria, but it's not enough for victory.

Maybe they are not the bloodthirsty savages the media make them out to be and they choose not to kill other human beings.

So their lives don't matter?
What does your drivel have anything to do w it? I've seen you say all lives matter
Hypocrite
When the US wanted to go in to Syria after Assad went full blown tyrant on his people, the world said no to saving people just like them. So yes their lives matter but Russia Iran and others blocked their lives from mattering. Go shout about it at them.
Errrrr.... Assad didn't start this mess, the west did.
Syria was always a secular state, very little trouble at all, but Assad didn't bow down to Israel and thus has to go. Once the western backed, funded and armed Islamist "rebels" were finished in Libya, they were transported out along with arms to get things going in Syria. Very few of the "Syrian" rebels were actually from Syria, but were instead from western backed proxy groups.
So, don't go blaming Assad for this mess, or Russia or Iran either, put the blame squarely where it belongs, on the heads of the USA, the UK, Israel and all those others who go along with the constant warmongering.

There's a difference between just up and murdering someone and fighting for the right to live. One is savage, the other is understandable by any rational person.
I do believe that, where there is only a choice between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence...Ghandi, there is a time when even the most peaceful must fight for survival.

Fight or Flight response. Not everyone has it in them to kill. Given the circumstance they are not yet organised to take on a Army armed to the teath. Maybe in a few years those refugees will go back and take their country back, but they aint gonna do it with sticks and stones.
Remember how the vacuum happened that allowed the likes of IS in in the first place.

Technically it's the flight, fight , or freeze response. Despite any background I can understand that. But family must be around for these guys and if nothing else. I would hope that alone would allow them to say f fear and f freeze. If not I could introduce you to mothers all across America and I'm not referring to Palin. If your not willing to fight for your own survival or those you love. I suspect you never will.

6 million Jews went to there deaths in the 40's. Hundreds of thousands were incarcerated in camps, slowly starving to death and not many fought back against those who wished to annihilate them. Humans are a strange bunch.

Everyone forgets Russia invaded Afghanistan first.
That they did.
The Peshwar Seven, and the Tehran eight.
As it was in the 80s so it is today.
But it's the 'west's fault.
