Syria civil war death toll reaches 60,000 UN adopts 22 resolutions against ..... Israel

While choking on their own hate, the collective negation of humanity ignores mass genocide, and instead advances Islamic Jew-hatred. The international community should be excoriating Islamic genocide, ethnic cleansing, subjugation, and oppression, instead of blaming the victims of these savages.

"Syria civil war death toll reaches 60,000, UN says" CBC January 2 2013

The United Nations estimated Wednesday that more than 60,000 people have been killed in Syria's civil war, a toll one-third higher than what anti-regime activists had counted in the 21-month-old conflict.

The UN human rights chief called the toll "truly shocking."

Activists opposed to the regime of President Bashar al-Assad had been estimating the death toll at more than 45,000. This was the first time that the UN estimate surpassed those of activist groups.

'The failure of the international community... to take concrete actions to stop the blood-letting shames us all.'— UN human rights chief Navi Pillay

"Given there has been no letup in the conflict since the end of November, we can assume that more than 60,000 people have been killed by the beginning of 2013," UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay said in a statement. "The number of casualties is much higher than we expected, and is truly shocking," she added.

"The failure of the international community, in particular the Security Council, to take concrete actions to stop the blood-letting, shames us all," Pillay said. "Collectively, we have fiddled at the edges while Syria burns."

Death toll likely greater

An airstrike on a gas station in a Damascus suburb on Wednesday pushed that death toll even higher. Activists said a Syrian warplane blasted the station, killing and wounding dozens of people and igniting a huge fire in what may be one of the bloodiest attacks in weeks.

The new UN analysis also said monthly casualty figures have been steadily increasing since the conflict began in March 2011.

Independent experts compared 147,349 killings reported by seven different sources — including the government — for the study, which was commissioned by the UN human rights office.

By removing duplicates they arrived at a list of 59,648 individuals killed between the start of the uprising on March 15, 2011, and Nov. 30, 2012. In each case, the victim's first and last name, the date and the location of his or her death were known.

The real death toll is likely to be even greater because reports containing incomplete information were excluded and a significant number of killings may not have been documented at all by the sources available.

[Ahmed, Nigeria]

THis is Non Sense, Bitch Pamella. Syria people and the Muslims in America and global wide are the same for you. YOu should not intend to care of them.

Leave the Syrian issue for the Muslims you hate, But stop the occupation of Palestine and the aggression of the western Zionists.

The Issue of Syrai and Palestine ate two different things, the syrian one is non of your F*Ing Bussiness.

Go to Hell Pamella WHORE

No one wants to see humans suffer.
The question is how many of the 60,000 are humans.
How are we supposed to concern ourselves over this typical bloody spasm of blind hatred, torture, rape and violence, the very currency of life and society in any country where muslims live?
Northern Ireland, you say?
Sorry, the vastly unequal scale disproves that desperate lie.
It's the muslims -- born and raised under the curse of mohammed.
Keeping them and their sickness out of our country is our number-one priority.

@Ahmed in Nigeria

Yes, if Israel would stop building those bloody apartments on their own territory, the killing in Syria would stop!

By the way, Ahmed, how many Nigerian Christians have you killed today?

[InfidelForLife]

@Ahmed: surely, you are the intellectual of the family.

[Georg von Starkermann]

No one really knows how many Syrians really died. The numbers on a statistical model are not the same in third world countries when compared to the USA or First world countries. This reminds me of the VietNam war where Walter Cronkite would come out every evening and say "US Forces killed 20,000 Viet Cong today. If it was posible to listen to everyone of his broadcasts the USA woulds have killed 6 million of the enemy. We all know that was the the case, just like the so called 6 million Jews who died in the holocaust, a number that too was made up by the Jews themselves.

[bezelel]

It's hard to say which is the lesser of two evils in the syrian conflict.

[Judi]

Georg von Starkermann - I presume with a name like that your father/grandfather was in the SS. Incidentally, did the 6 million vanish into thin air or have you other evidence?

[dad]

The UN would do sanctions anyway. They are all Muslims.

As far as "sunflowers" is concerned I am happy he could tear himself away from the Bacha Bazzi sex boys" long enough to blog. He is one sicko hate monger. He must be muslim.
