War in Syria: cam mounted on Syrian tanks record war videos

[Walter]

Video footage from the missions with Russian T-72's tanks during the battle for Darayya, a Damascus suburb...

The video gives a very unique view of the war, it is showing us what it really is to be in a war zone. Notice the devastation of Darayya, a suburb of Damascus, where about 80,000 people used to live.

Why is this not considered news anymore in the mainstream media?

Switch on English subtitles in the video (right lower corner).

The Olympics? Crimea? Missing airplane? Anything to keep us distracted. The media switches focus so often and so fast that it gave an entire generation ADD.

... and all this time, I thought ADD was caused because kids couldn't sneak out behind the school for a cigarette any more.

but,,Dont mess with Israel

It is clear thst this country intends to take no action and render itself a laughingstock for having threatened to do so. There is no favorable "side" from our perspective and having backed islamic extreemism in other like goings on is just feeding more and BO has only just figured this out. It sucks to syrian but there is no acceptable response.

Russia invaded Crimea when Obama warned Putin not to. So lets invade Syria when Putin warned us not to.

What sanctions did Putin threaten if we invaded Syria? This is all very political...We and Russia signed an agreement with the Ukraine to recognize and protect their sovereignty. I ask in all seriousness, have we ever signed a treaty with Syria?
