Update2

Syrian security forces on Friday killed at least 27 people, including a child, as pro-democracy protests swept the country, with demonstrators pressing on with calls for more freedom in defiance of a fierce crackdown, activists said.

The child was among 11 people killed in the central city of Homs while another 10 died in the town of Maaret al-Naaman, located near the western city of Idlib, the activists said.

They said security forces also killed two people in the southern region of Daraa, flashpoint of protests that have gripped Syria since March 15, one in Daraya, a suburb of Damascus, another in the port city of Latakia and two in the eastern town of Deir al-Zour.

“The victims in Maaret al-Naaman were gunned down at the entrance of the city where many people were converging from other nearby towns to join the protest,” an activist said.

Protests were also reported in several other towns across Syria.

More than 880 people have been killed and thousands arrested since the protests began in mid-March, according to human rights groups and the United Nations.

    president obama has sent a threat to assad :if you ca,nt lead get out of the way
    if you do,nt reform to democracy you need to leave
    and it looks like asad,s people are not obeing his orders and they keep killing women and children of there own syrian people
    so obviously assad is not capable to do the job and lead  he needs to resign immediatley.
    it will be a matters of days president obama is going to tellhim to step down and president obama tell asad to step down
    it will be over for him

      The problem is, Obama wont do any of the above. he will only continue with his lip service. the reason is, he can’t. not when China, Russia and Turkey, are behind Asad, and will not agree to let  NATO get involved in Syria..

          Freedom has its cost unfortunately. People are going to die for others to live free. Like Christ died for humanity (or for those who accept him as a savior) to live free. Like Hariri died to have Lebanon live free. This is the sacrifice that people pay to live free, someone has to take the burden on himself and pay for the errors of others in order for the rest to live free and a better life.

    if this rgeme keeps killing civilians evantually what is going to happen the un and the us will call for national security resolution against syria and the nato will get the green light and will start bombing the syrian forces just like they did with gaddafi,sl ibyia
    the us, f21, and f23 and b2bombers ,will attack and destroys syria,s airforce in overwelming attack which will destroy syria,s airforce in 48 hours, to guarantee no fly zone
    the nato will attack the groung forces the tanks and the artilleries and the regeme will collapse within 5 days
    unless asad stop killing civilians and move towards democratic reform immediatley. he is going to have the same fate as saddam hosein or gaddafi,s .

    Message to the syrian people on this website. Salute! God is with you! You proved the world wrong when they said Bashar had broken the will of the Syrian people before they could even start the revolt. Now you know why we Lebanese hate your Government. They treated us like this for almost 30 years. We got them out of Lebanon and Now you have to get them out of Syria! God Bless you all and more power to you!

    Freedom has its cost unfortunately. People are going to die for others to live free. Like Christ died for humanity (or for those who accept him as a savior) to live free.

This is the sacrifice that people pay to live free, someone has to take the burden on himself and pay for the errors of others in order for the rest to live free and a better life.
