The Syrian
Grinch!<http://syrianrevolutiondigest.blogspot.com/2011/12/syrian-grinch.html>
*Assad the Grinch who stole our Christmas in Syria, not to mention our
life and our freedom continues, through his minions, to pound the resilient
neighborhoods, suburbs and towns of Syria. But here is the Miracle: the
people are not giving up. They bury their dead, then, they take back to the
streets to keep telling him to leave, because freedom is worth any price,
because its the birth of freedom that we are indeed witnessing all over
the country.*
*Sunday 25, 2011*
*Todays death toll:* 10, including 3 children. The *Breakdown*: 6 in Homs
City, 3 children in Qraya (Qouriyeh) in Deir Ezzor Province, and 1 in Nawa
in Deraa/Hauran Province.
As the siege of Homs City continues, Syrian protesters and opposition
groups call on Arab League observers to go to Homs, and the Pope calls for
ending the violence in Syria.
