The demonstrations were inspired by the successful peaceful revolution in Egypt and the uprising in Libya, but al-Assad seems willing to do anything to hold onto power. The video embedded below was filmed by an amateur photographer and uploaded by the Arabic news agency Ugarit News. It begins with the camera man approaching a police line with some other protesters until the police opened fire on them with live ammunition. The police are dresses in camouflage, so they could be Syrian soldiers. We posted this in police rants instead of military because al-Assad uses his army to perform police duties and his police are known to wear fatigues, so they could easily be either doing bad police work. Its footage like this that makes the international community suspect the Syrian government of committing crimes against humanity. This is just one incident on the worst ongoing cases of police brutality ever known. <br> Learn more: <a href="https://postalmostanything.com/260/syrian-police-firing-live-rounds-at-unarmed-civilians">Syrian Police Firing Live Rounds at Unarmed Civilians</a> https://postalmostanything.com/images/syria-coat-of-arms.png https://postalmostanything.com/260/syrian-police-firing-live-rounds-at-unarmed-civilians Rant & Rave Government Police Damascus Syria West Asia Tue, 13 Sep 2011 00:30:04 -07:00 https://postalmostanything.com/260/syrian-police-firing-live-rounds-at-unarmed-civilians https://postalmostanything.com/260/syrian-police-firing-live-rounds-at-unarmed-civilians NoLimitList.com en-us
