A horrific amateur video appeared on YouTube, apparently showing an atrocity against public service workers in Syria. The footage displays a crowd of people callously throwing the bodies of slain postal workers from a post office rooftop.
The video, the source of which could not be independently verified, shows several dozen people having surrounded the staircase of the building, some of them chanting Allahu Akbar! They watch corpses being thrown out and rolled down the steps.
Also, several people have got to the roof and are throwing down the apparently dead bodies of post servants.
As they hit the ground, the crowd rushes in to catch the appalling images on their mobile phones.
The video caused online outrage and heated debates on Twitter as to who the people committing the atrocity might be. The majority allege they are Free Syrian Army supporters who intentionally target civil servants backing the regime.
Another bang up job by the failed State Dept.
Y'all make us proud to wave the Stars & Bares!
“Bodies of postal workers thrown from roof”
Here in America, its usually the other way around.
“Documents confirm Syria’s armed opposition has a hit list with scientists, engineers, doctors and civil servants on it, Ammar Safi, a plastic surgeon from Damascus, told RT”
Pol Pot would be proud.
Don’t these things happen in a civil war? If you have helped Assad’s family rule with an iron grip for the last 40 years you and your family might come to a bitter end.
Alright already.
How come just about every bit of news I see these days makes me say “WTF?”
Yes but ewe don’t behead people.
Russian Television news. They’ve never met and Assad supporter they didn’t like.
Just shows that those who would replace Assad aren’t going to be any better.
They're just as reliable as CNN or MSNBC.
Exactly. Who do you root for, Iran/Russia/Hezbollah or the Muslim Brotherhood?
Looks like they were done to death right under a picture of Mahdi Mouse.
Damn good thing Muzzies spend so much time fighting each other.
It’s given a whole new meaning to “going postal.”
Let’s refrain from pointing accusing fingers — the Obama administration has never met a member of the muslim brotherhood it didn’t like.
The freaking arabs have it backwards. It’s the postal employees who are supposed to be doing the tossing.
It’s ok, the ones they threw off the roof were
air mail workers.
"You are a very bad man."
Ok, that explains why Hildahoof wants a no fly zone.
Got it.
