 File under: Govt of Syria 

#1 This is such superior Journalism. WHO fired the mortars...it doesn't say. Not a lot of concern for the dead but some concern for the damage to the Church. Like it matters. Was there any military REASON for targeting a Christian community and specifically a Church...or is it just another demonstration of Islamic Values in the "religion of Peace"?

So the article didn't really tell us anything actually. Dead Syrians, presumably Christian...but who really knows. Not exactly in depth coverage. Reminds me of my mother saying eat your peas there are children starving in China. And my brother whispering under his breath, "name two.".

#2 It's a "state news agency" filtered through a Lebanese media outlet. What did you expect, Hemingway?

#3 The people who used Lebanon as the human shield for their anti-Joo Soviet Rocket Park are shocked, SHOCKED to find that christians are being targeted and have found new meaning to their lives as Defenders Of The Faith.

Bah, humbug, if ya ask me.
