In other news: war escalations in Syria

[ThePythonicCow]

In addition to the Internet being cut off from Syria, here are some other news reports from the last couple of days, suggesting an escalation of war in Syria:

• From Western-backed Terrorists in Syria Slaughter Christians in Bombing

  Al Qaeda terrorists, backed, armed, funded, and diplomatically recognized by the West, have detonated 2 car bombs in Christian-Druze quarters in Damascus, killing dozens.

• From Washington Wants Puppet Government in Syria

  An analyst says the United States seeks to establish a Libya-style "pure puppet government" in Syria to deprive Hezbollah and Iran of a necessary ally and fulfill the geopolitical agenda of imperial powers in the region.

• From After the Elections: Obama Escalates War Drive in the Middle East

  The war in Syria, portrayed by a broad stratum of so-called liberals and “lefts” as a crisis demanding “humanitarian” intervention, has emerged with ever-greater clarity as an exercise in ruthless and brutal conquest. Washington and all of the major powers have joined in fomenting a bloody sectarian civil war and preparing ever-more direct military intervention with the aim of toppling the regime of Bashar al-Assad and preparing a far greater war against its ally, Iran.
  
  The Obama administration is preparing a “deeper intervention” in Syria to “help push President Bashar al-Assad from power,” the New York Times reported on Thursday.

Also air travel out of Damascus has been halted, and some (many, most, ... ?) phone lines are down into Syria (though Google is offering a Speak2Tweet for Syrians disconnected from the Internet, if they can still get a phone line out.)

Alex jones has a video on his site, showing unarmed people
in syria, laying face down in the dirt, being shot. I couldn't bring
myself to watch it and i'm certainly not going to post it.
