More details of a massacre in Homs late last month have emerged following the global outcry of a massacre in Deir el-Zour yesterday.
The massacre, carried out by Free Syrian Army militants reportedly targeted men, women and children in the Christian village of al-Duwayr/Douar close to the city of Homs and the border with Lebanon. The incident received little media attention, having occurred at the same time as thousands of Syrian troops converged on the insurgent-occupied town of al-Qusayr.
According to sources, around 350 heavily armed militants entered the village, broke into homes and assembled residents in the main square of the village where they were executed. The final death toll is not known but photos show severe damage to property in the village.
Syrian army sources said that they reached the village after the massacre, resulting in clashes with militants. Sources also reported that Turkish and Chechen extremists were among the perpetrators. Chechen militants are known to have kidnapped two Christian bishops in Aleppo earlier this year. The following images show al-Duwayr/Douar village after the massacre:
Conditions for ethnic and religious minorities have been made increasingly worse as Free Syrian Army affiliated organisations including Jabhat al-Nusra increase ethnic and sectarian cleansing across Syria. Kidnappings, executions and assassinations are common.
Late last month, around the time of the massacre in Homs, a fifteen year old girl was kidnapped by militants in Damascus, who demanded $100,000 for her release. Miryam Jbeil, a niece Damascus-based Catholic priest Nader Jbeil, was released after a number of days in captivity.

In the aftermath of the Syrian army assault on al-Qusayr, the church was discovered to have been desecrated by Free Syrian Army militants.
Damage inside the church
Damaged church. Al-Qusayr previously had a significant Christian population.
Bastard.
Savages.
...unexpectedly...
obama has killed and ethnically cleansed more Christians than since the caliphate was in full power.
Moslems killing other Moslems and anyone else in their way.
(The same in Lebanon, Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan, plus Mali, Niger, Algeria, Morocco etc).
I think Bush meant to call Islam a “religion of pieces” as these photos show.
Can’t blame this one on the Jews, can you Helen Thomas? Oh, you’ll probably find a way just for the hell of it.
Did he have to order them or were they freelancing?
Anyone wanting on or off this ping list, please advise.
“...Free Syrian Army militants reportedly targeted men, women and children in the Christian village of al-Duwayr/Douar...”
Good ole’ Islam
Anytime ISLAM becomes the dominate majority - this is what happens to non-Moslems...remember that people - it’s the way it is...no laws - no sanctions - no meetings or pleas will ever change it...

I forgot to add: “The true religion of our prophet Mohamed will be victorious over tyrants.”
Again - proves what I just said...when Islam is the majority...
Once civilization and Christianity are gone so is freedom, peace, stability and prosperity.
No place left for Americans to run to.....
but he wants a caliphate.
Poverty and third world disaster for all!
FUBO and all your ilk!
What difference does it make /s
Obama has announced he will arm Al Qaeda in Syria.
But not to worry - no troops & no heavy weapons, just light arms... so “it’s ok”
And where are the Repubs? They’re pushing Amnesty while OBAMA ARMS AL QAEDA
What they hell is wrong with these people? NOBODY can be that stupid.
Time for us all to call our congress people and say hell no to this crap. We need to start shouting from the rooftops....NO!!
Naturally, Obama will support those who would destroy any evidence of Christianity anywhere in the mideast.
It’s one of the biggest reasons Obama finds those groups so appealing. He hates Christianity as much as they do
Our troops are there now. (Drudge Report). I wonder if they have orders to destroy Christian churches?
well our troops are near the border for “military exercises”,,,in Jordan,,,but I’m sure he’ll declare the ROEs to be as pro-Jihadi as he can get away with
I know you are ill but you are a mighty trooper. If I were ill, I would be just like you and fighting through my computer. I have said if I have to go to a nursing home (I'm really old), I'm not going unless they have fast internet for my computer. I live through my computer. I can go anywhere in the world with this computer and with books. I've physically traveled the world, been there, done that, and it's much easier with my computer.
In fact, toilet paper is so bad in the rest of the world, I used to have a collection of it from many countries. After the first country, I carried American toilet paper in my suitcase.
I admire you a great deal, Mesta.
Oh, gosh. Thank you. I don’t know what to say.
Thanks for the ping.
I’m Catholic, but I can’t help what I’m about to say: this guy is a huge a$$hole, and that’s putting it nicely.
Despite that, I’m wondering who the bigger a-holes are: the stupid low info voters who put him in power, or these dipcrap Repubs who sit idly by while Obama rapidly dismantles this country?
Congratulations, Baraq. You have fundamentally transformed America.
“And where are the Repubs? They’re pushing Amnesty while OBAMA ARMS AL QAEDA. What they hell is wrong with these people? NOBODY can be that stupid”
I was asking myself the same thing. If I have to listen to one more GOP-e idiot trying to sell this POS amnesty bill I’m going to smash the TV!!! I weep for this nation.
“....destroy any evidence of Christianity anywhere in the mideast.”
.
And most importantly, anywhere in the USA. And he is very successful in doing so.
