Update: Syrian warplanes bomb village, at least eight children killed

Syrian warplanes bombed a village outside Damascus on Sunday, killing eight children, activists reported.



AMMAN — The bombardment of a village near the Syrian capital of Damascus on Sunday killed at least eight children.

Also on Sunday, Syrian rebels said they had captured a helicopter base 10 miles east of Damascus after an overnight battle, the second military facility on the outskirts of the capital to fall to President Bashar al-Assad's opponents this month.

Activists said the children were killed when Syrian warplanes bombed the village of Deir al-Asafir just outside the Damascus. The village is close to suburbs of the capital that has been witnessing clashes, shelling and air raids between troops and rebels over the past months.

The Britain-based Syrian observatory for Human Rights said the bombardment of the village killed eight children. Another activist group, the Revolution Command Council said 10 children were killed when warplanes struck the village as they played outdoors.

An amateur video showed two girls lying dead in a street while the bodies of two bloodied dead boys were in the back seat of a car parked nearby. Several other wounded children were seen rushed for treatment.

Another video showed the bodies of two dead boys inside what appeared to be a makeshift hospital as others received treatment from injuries while lying on the floor.

The activist videos appeared genuine and corresponded to other AP reporting about the events depicted. Syria restricts the access of reporters.

The media, like the yellow journalists of the 1890's, are fanning the fires with the call of "baby killers." How many older sons and daughters will die for "the babies."

Blood and destruction shall be so in use
And dreadful objects so familiar
That mothers shall but smile when they behold
Their infants quarter'd with the hands of war;
All pity choked with custom of fell deeds:
And Caesar's spirit, ranging for revenge,
With Ate by his side come hot from hell,
Shall in these confines with a monarch's voice
Cry 'Havoc,' and let slip the dogs of war;
That this foul deed shall smell above the earth
With carrion men, groaning for burial.

Anthony Julius Caesar Act III scene 1


... Gone to graveyards everyone. When will they ever learn? When will they ever learn.

Sorry. Can I rant? If a gym was bombed and 8 adults died, the press would ignore it. Sad when people are killed, any differently aged person.

Ooo - I thought Zelda got loose!

Zelda is my neighbor's Dachshund. Chose my screen name here in homage.

We often refer to her as the Dog O'War! Quite a formidable beast!
