Arab Spring in Syria: 6,000 Dead in a Single Month...

[MaxShimba]

BEIRUT (AP) - March was the bloodiest month yet in Syria's 2-year-old conflict with more than 6,000 documented deaths, a leading anti-regime activist group said Monday, blaming the increase on heavier shelling and more violent clashes.

Rami Abdul-Rahman, who heads the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, said the increased toll is likely incomplete because both the Syrian army and the rebel groups fighting President Bashar Assad's government often underreport their dead in the civil war.

"Both sides are hiding information," Abdul-Rahman said by phone from Britain, where his group is based. "It is very difficult to get correct info on the fighters because they don't want the information to hurt morale."

The numbers, while provided by only one group, support the appraisal of the conflict offered by many Syria watchers: The civil war is largely a military stalemate that is destroying the country's social fabric and taking a huge toll on civilians.

Much as i know this war is backed by US and other blood suckers from Western states...the motive behind is to eliminate all Leaders over the world who does not kneel before them they stated with Ghadaf now they are in Syria...i Russia should wake up and show the world that they can do something to stop killings of innocent civilians by rebels backed by US and other western allies.
