When Amnesty International (Amnesty) released a report documenting the mass hanging <https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2017/02/syria-investigation-uncovers-governments-secret-campaign-of-mass-hangings-and-extermination-at-saydnaya-prison/> of thousands of prisoners in Syria’s Saydnaya Prison, the Syrian government was put on the back foot. President Bashar al-Assad himself responded, calling our report “childish” and “biased” <https://www.yahoo.com/news/assad-vows-retake-raqa-every-inch-syria-072948679.html>, and even laughed as he said he didn’t know what went on in Saydnaya as he was "in the Presidential Palace”. The Syrian government is not the first to have its cage rattled by our research. https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2017/02/the-human-rights-violators-playbook-how-to-respond-to-an-amnesty-international-report/?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=article&utm_term=&utm_campaign=social _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
