"Blasts heard at US Syria embassy"
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "There has been no official confirmation of developments in Damascus, which has seen several blasts in recent years.

Syria is an authoritarian state where the security forces exert tight control on the population and the media.

A security source told the BBC it is believed Syrian forces may have foiled a bomb attack on the US embassy."

A security source told the BBC it is believed Syrian forces may have foiled a bomb attack on the US embassy.

Captain Obvious just told BBC that foiled bomb attacks generally do not result in explosions.

Maybe I should take 20 minutes out of my busy life and get a corrspondence school journalism degree.
