How the world can stand by and do nothing to ease the suffering of the 20,000 Syrians who have no means escape. No food No medicines. Little children looking utterly lost, confused with what is going on around them. Faces full of hunger 60 pkts of food Was all that got through. How much longer are these poor peoples plight going to be ignored ?

I saw the report on the BBC news tonight. It was heartbreaking.

Remind me. Where was the aid coming from? The UN, the US, EU, the West..... Russia, China, the Arab League, Saudi? To whom was it being sent?

And who is it we should be taking the fight to - Assad or the Islamic fundamentalists who want to turn Syria into an Islamic state?

You are absolutely correct, hence the Saudi's and the Islamic States do nothing.
But then the other leaders of nations equally do nothing to stop this slaughter! it takes one back to the last war and the inhumane atrocities that took place, cruelty, starvation, death, yes the world has become an un -believably cruel place.
Where human life means NOTHING.
