Necessity breeds Syrian Homemade Tanks run by PlayStation

For months Syrian rebels have taken matters into their own hands, but now they’ve seriously stepped up their game: a home-made tank.

We’re not just talking about a car with a some metal attached to it; this bad boy features a controller used specifically for moving the tank’s turret, as shown in a video captured by RT.

Imagine knowing that your (Egyptian) President, the first civilian democratically elected post-revolution President is a puppet for that group, and his puppeteer is the second man in this order, and not even the First.

Just freakin Imagine.

A stomach virus is forcing U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to cancel her trip to the “Friends of Syria” meeting in Morocco that will focus on ratcheting up support for the Syrian opposition.

On reading the news this morning, my subconscious instantly murmured, “Diplomatic illness.”

The death of Syrians accumulated so fast it seems impossible to comprehend over 40,000 lives lost in less than two years.

But the death of a city is different. It is slow -- each neighborhood's death is documented bomb by bomb, shell by shell, stone by fallen stone.
