I can't read or speak Arabic. You have posted this unsourced video and made a very dramatic claim that these infants were "lined up and shot," presumably by the Syrian army or police. Can you back that up?

Or are they Alawite children "lined up and shot" by Sunni death squads?

Or are they Bab Amr residents killed in the shelling?

I suspect that is the case. Is that not horrible enough?

[font color="navy" face="Verdana"]The YouTube channel this came from is also not in English, so we need someone who understands this language to explain the content and source of this video.

Are there any DUers who can give us a summary translation of both this video and the YouTube channel source?

Libyan soldier raping women em mass. Killing children allegation always riles up the masses for war so why would anyone even those with death wishes do this and not dispose off the evidence. They were only a handful of babies who could be easily carried off in their tanks once the killings were done.

Sorry Tabitha but I don't for one second buy the story, you are allies with Iran a hated country for the west and the world(US especially) is having a conference right now looking for a reason to intervene and kick you out on your butt and you are out killing babies and leaving the evidence for everyone to see? its just too good to be true

That makes it look like nothing more than black propaganda and war porn.
