This Voltairenet article contains a very comprehensive list of terrorists’ attacks in Syria, from Dec 31, 2015 to April 1, 2016.
It begins with the poignant comment that: “The Western Press does not have anything to say about terrorism in Syria.”

-republished on 21st Century Wire, with this SANA update:
“Aleppo/Daraa: The death toll from terrorist attacks with rocket shells launched by Jabhat al-Nusra terrorists on al-Zahraa town and residential areas in Aleppo city rose to 16 killed and 86 injured.”

A Syrian friend messaged me, his voice barely coherent in his grief, mourning the murder of his 10 year old cousin in al-Foua, northern Syria.

Eva, I lost my cousin today, in al-Foua. His name was Najeb Ahmad hallak. The terrorists killed him, he was just 10 years old. They shot him through his heart.
I hate this life, Eva.

An interview I did with Brendan Stone yesterday on his program, Unusual Sources. Their introduction:
“Guest: Eva Bartlett, Canadian journalist, who has visited Syria 4 times in the past three years.
Mainstream media reporting and NGO social-media posts about starvation in the Syrian village of Madaya are designed to elicit an emotional response and build support for military intervention in Syria. Reality on the ground there, and elsewhere in Syria is ignored.

On December 28, 2015, the United Nation’s OCHA made its first express Twitter mention of two northern Syrian villages, al-Foua and Kafarya (also transliterated as Kafraya).
