The Syrian government has continued its rain of bombs on the city of Homa, the rebel's capital.  China and Russia refused to agree to the UN's settlement terms proposed by the League of Arab Nations and the UN is struggling to come up with a solution to stop the violence.  This is just horrible how corrupt the government has become.  They are basically just killing innocent people for no reason other than to scare people into submission.  However, I don't believe the rebels plan to give up on their fight for revolution so the "intimidation" threats are just wasting human lives.  I am taking a 180 on my views on this subject at this point because I think a government probobly should intervene to stop the pointless slaughter of people.  I still believe that once the people are free from the opressive government that they should be able to pick their new type of government.  The hospitals are begging for blood donations because so many innocent people have been inujured in the artillery strikes.  According to human rights activists, many injured people are being denied adequate medical treatment because of the government blockade on the city and horrible crimes against humanity are taking place right now.  Many observers of the war fear that the worst is yet to come still meaning thousands of more Syrian lives will be taken because the corrupt leader refuses to step down from power.  I still don't understand how someone can become so evil when given power that he could take thousands of lives just to keep it even though he probobly knows already that his efforts will be in vein.
