"CNN cannot independently verify reports of deaths and violence because the Syrian government has severely restricted access by international media."
"Majid Arar, who lives closer to the scene of the attack, told the Guardian. "After hearing the news of the generals being killed there was some excitement and some joy, because people are furious [with the regime]. But when the government started bombarding people started to feel very scared. It's joy and at the same time fear for the future. People are now more open to talk about what's going on in the city, even on the telephone. People usually fear that the government is listening but are now more open to talking. Some barriers have been broken."
"A large force of Israeli army surrounded the home of Majid Arar .. "All residents in the house left immediately ..." , They kept shouting through loudspeakers"
"The regime may have succeeded in quelling the rebellion in Damascus, for the moment. But virtually the entire country is in the grip of a popular revolution."
"Victory is coming soon. Almost half of Aleppo is now with the FSA," Abdul Gabbar Kaidi, the colonel in charge of the rebel battle for Aleppo, said bullishly. Kaidi was sitting in his HQ, a former school. Walkie-talkies sat on a table and a whiteboard showed his plans for attack. He broke off the conversation to take a phone call – the rebels, he said, had just succeeded in downing an army helicopter.
"There is no going back. The Damascus battle has priority for us. We have started the operation to liberate Damascus," Saadeddine said, adding the rebels had called their operation "Damascus volcano and Syrian earthquake".

The regime has tried for three days to regain Salaheddine, but its attempts have failed and it has suffered heavy losses in human life, weapons and tanks, and it has been forced to withdraw,” said Colonel Abdel-Jabbar al-Oqaidi, head of the Joint Military Council, one of several rebel groups in Aleppo.
A rebel commander in Aleppo said his fighters’ aim was to push towards the city centre, district by district, a goal he believed they could achieve “within days, not weeks"
"Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan, once a friend of Assad, has become one of his most vocal opponents. Erdogan spoke by phone to U.S. President Barack Obama on Tuesday."
“God willing, the brotherly Syrian people and the Middle East will soon be freed from this dictator with blood on his hands, and his regime, which was built on blood,” Erdogan said late on Tuesday in a monthly television address."
Residents and activists said the Syrian Army was attacking from a military base on the city’s southern edge, while rebel commanders and activists said the rebels controlled eastern sections of the city as they continued to fight for neighborhoods near the center of the city and in Salaheddiin, a large neighborhood in the southwest part of Aleppo.

He added, “People are not really moving out now because of the shelling.”
It is pitch black as he arrives at an isolated farmhouse surrounded by olive groves in northern Syria for an interview with an AFP correspondent.
He assures that the rebel Free Syrian Army will not withdraw, as it did in Damascus earlier this month, but that it will face the attack.
People are supporting us because they got fed up of the regime and the 60-year oppression – they can't wait for the day they see Syria free.
A few days ago the BBC had secretly send one of its reporters in Aleppo. Ian Pannell who had secretly embedded with the rebels in Aleppo but with that it does rise a very serious question are Journalists really Journalists or government infiltrators?
Yawn yawn here we ago again . Yet another desperate attempt to defend your conspiracy that everything in the west is evil and the only good guys are the middle east dictators and far east dictators
You have provided proof positive that you are spinning stories for your own agenda.
Only a true infiltrator would deny it!
The one on the right is the Photoshop. The reverse is true from that claimed here.
Look at the shadows, the ladies head covering has far more detail in the left photo also, the right one is a complete black blur, probably touched up because all the draping folds in front could not lie about the shadows. Cheaply done also.
How easily you are all had when hatred for the MSM blinds you.
Taken like complete suckers by simple propaganda for Assad.

That means Syrians are fighting Syrians. It is obvious who's side Russia and China are on, where is the outrage that they picked a side in a Civil War? What is the difference if the West has picked a side then?
What is the point of this thread?
You have provided proof positive that you are spinning stories for your own agenda. Are you the MSM? Maybe you are working for the government and pretending to be a conspiracist using reverse psychology. Hey the proof is here in black and white, written in your own hand! You cannot deny it. Only a true infiltrator would deny it!
Longlines for bread in the Syrian city of Idlib. This is the only open bakery in the area and supplies are scarce. Some say the've been waiting for three hours. The northwestern city is just one of many in Syria suffering serious food shortages as the country heads in into the 17th month of the insurgency.

Syrians suffering from food shortages
Longlines for bread in the Syrian city of Idlib. This is the only open bakery in the area and supplies are scarce. Some say the've been waiting for three hours. The northwestern city is just one of many in Syria suffering serious food shortages as the country heads in into the 17th month of the insurgency. Meanwhile the Turkish military conducts military exercises on the boarder --- a move that seemed to highlight Ankara's growing unease about the security climate. Particularly worrying to Turkish officials are rpeorts of Kurdish presence in northern Syria;. Twenty-five tanks were deployed to the border for the exercise which is expected to last serveral days. There were no indications on Wednesday that Turkish forces will cross the border. Deborah Gembara, Reuters.
Notice the mistake in the story? when they were typing it out? rpeorts? does he meaan reports?
And some people here say my English is bad look at that headline article with the bad grammar.
Now here's the propaganda line.

The West have deliberately caused these food shortages, but now we are told it as if Assad has caused them, and as if it is a reason for intervention. There are staving people in many countries around the world who we are not being told about, but now because the Bankers want to put a central bank in Syria, now Syrian's are staving and we need to save them

Yes, anything to spur the bleeding hearts to action.
Makes me so mad how people at work etc will start talking about the hungry in Syria as if it's a real problem that only can solve by supporting a military invasion. Real people are thinking and talking like this, and i'm astonished.
TPTB really do create the reality.
