Syrian treatment of it's displaced citizens. Barrel bombs have don't more harm than chemical weapons. Time to ground the syrian helicopter and consider them weapons of mass destruction.
Why is the Assad regime bombing camps instead of ISIS? (rhetorical)

  A Syrian army helicopter dropped two barrel bombs on a displaced persons camp in the northern province of Idlib, camp residents said on Wednesday, and video footage appeared to show charred and dismembered bodies.
  
  Footage posted on YouTube showed corpses of women, children and burning tents while people scrambled to save the wounded. "It's a massacre of refugees," a voice off camera said.
  
  "Let the whole world see this, they are displaced people. Look at them, they are civilians, displaced civilians. They fled the bombardment," the man's voice said.
  
  A man in another video of the Abedin camp, which houses people who had escaped fighting in neighbouring Hama province, said as many as 75 people had died.
  
  Syrian state media did not mention the bombing. The British-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, which tracks violence in the civil war, said 10 civilians died.
  
  Reuters could not independently confirm the attack. Barrel bombs are crudely-made containers filled with nails, metal shrapnel and explosive which are dropped from helicopters.
  
  Rights groups say they have been dropped by the army on densely populated neighbourhoods in defiance of a U.N. Security Council resolution banning the indiscriminate explosives.
  
  One video shows a man arriving at the scene on a motorbike. He runs into the camp and screams at others to pick up the bodies, trying to convince them that the people on the ground with limbs missing might still survive if taken to hospital.
  
  "This one's good! This one's good!" he shouts, telling two men to carry a limp body with one leg hanging from strips of flesh to a nearby pick up truck. "Pick him up from the stomach not the leg," he screams.
  
  Nearly 10 million people have been displaced by Syria's civil war, which started with pro-democracy protests but grew into an armed revolt when security forces cracked down on the demonstrations. More than 3 million refugees have fled the country and the conflict has killed close to 200,000 people, according to the United Nations.
  
  Both the Syrian government and insurgent groups are accused by rights groups of killing civilians and destroying homes.

Why should Assad waste his time and money fighting ISIS when he has America and company doing it for him?

Besides, this way he can satisfy his blood lust by murdering innocent civilians.

Just a son following in his fathers footsteps. ......

[Bleipriester]

Surely the article is propaganda bullshit as the article lacks of the mentioned evidences. Furthermore, a barrel bomb causes a bigger smoke cloud that this tiny firework.

US condemns attack on refugee camp by Syrian military

Washington: The US has condemned an attack by Syrian armed forces on a camp for displaced people in the northeastern region of Idlib in which 10 people died and dozens were injured.

The attack was carried out by helicopters which dropped barrel bombs on a camp for refugees who had fled from the neighbouring Hama region, according to Syrian Observatory For Human Rights.

Barrel bombs are oil drums stuffed with explosives and shrapnel designed to cause casualties and horrific injuries.

"We are horrified by the reports that the Assad regime barrel bombed the Abedin displaced persons camp in Idlib and the images we saw of the carnage against innocent civilians," US State Department spokesperson Jen Psaki said in a statement.

She said that though the US could not confirm the details, “once more we condemn the Assad regime's callous disregard for human life, particularly its violence directed against civilians".

"The attack on the Abedin camp was nothing short of barbaric. Unfortunately, if it is confirmed to be the work of the (Assad) regime, it is only the latest act of brutality by the regime against its own people," she added.

“The Assad regime must be held responsible for its brutality and atrocities against the Syrian people."

Psaki said that the UN had reported murders, forced disappearances, kidnappings, torture, rapes and bombings against civilians in Syria.

On Tuesday, the Syrian air force attacked the residents of Kansafra, which fell under the control of the Nusra Front, an offshoot of the Al Qaeda in Syria, following clashes with the Free Syrian Army opposition force.

In a similar bombing carried out by the regime in Al Rastan, in Homs, at least two people were killed and 13 others were injured, including a woman.

Over 200,000 people have died in Syria since the beginning of the conflict in March 2011, according to the UN.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Assad might not make the top ten list with the likes of stalin, pol pot or hitler yet but syria has surpassed the death count of berundi, anfar and closing in on darfur.
Wake up, Assad and his baath regime have got to go.

It is totally clear that there is no reason for the Syrian forces to fight unarmed civilians, the more so as the Syrian government spares no efforts to provide the millions of refugees who fled the Islamist terror for government controlled areas with the essential supplies.

It is a simple propaganda lie:

State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki:
"We can not confirm the details..."

Probably, the Islamists are angry about their failed offensive against Idlib and invent horrible stories now.

Syrian helicopters punished terrorists:
"The Observatory said the hill was captured by rebels, which prompted Syrian helicopter gunships to target the site."

You can post 1000 links, the source is the anti-government "SOHR".
And can you post a video of President Assad dropping barrel bombs for evidence, please.

However, this is the "evidence":


I wasn´t there, but it is very likely that what ever happened to the camp (if there is a camp), the Syrian government does not have anything to do with it.
