BEIRUT (AFP) -
A major Syrian rebel group is using dozens of captives in metal cages as "human shields" in the largest opposition stronghold on the outskirts of Damascus, a monitor said Sunday.
Jaish al-Islam, regarded as the most powerful rebel group near the capital, has put regime soldiers and Alawite civilians it was holding in metal cages, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights told AFP.
The group then placed these cages in public squares in the Eastern Ghouta region in an attempt to "prevent regime bombardment", Observatory head Rami Abdel Rahman said.
Islam is a wonderful experience!/s
As if Putin will care.
The “good guys”, according to Obama. They’re also killing Christians using weapons given to them by that thing in the White House.
There is noway in Hell we should support these people like McCain/ obama want you to do, Assad has not done one thing to this country. Always ask yourself “ What have they done to my country”? For example , Saudi Arabia funded the attack on the world trade center, the pentagon and the ill fated flight. Why God WHY dis we not take their land!!
We foolishly don’t take land because we fear being labeled imperialists far more than being defeated.
Whoa. I can’t believe you said that.
Take it and defend it. Label those apposed with a 50 caliber tatoo in the middle of their forehead.

My exact thoughts. Putin knows what war entails.
McCain’s brave young men, trying to make their country better.
“A major Syrian rebel group...”
Could this be one of our moderate factions? At least the cage is made of nice wrought iron rather than rusty re-bar.
