Introduction

This blog was created to share the facts of civil war crimes in Arab countries. This is maybe the only one blog where true facts of war are posted without any moderation.

The Arab uprisings began at the end of 2010, and so far, rulers have been forced from power in Tunisia, Egypt, Libya and Yemen, while significant conflict continues in Bahrain and Syria. Additionally most other Arab states have seen at least some kind of protest. In 2012, we did not see an Arab leader fall (Yemeni president-elect Abdrabbuh Mansour Hadi assumed power in February), but there has been a growing flame of tension in a number of countries.
In June, former Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak was sentenced to life in prison, and former Tunisian president Zine El-Abidine Ben Ali received a life sentence for the deaths of 23 protesters. He also received a 66-year sentence in civilian court on charges of embezzlement, drug trafficking and other crimes. Ben Ali fled with his wife to Saudi Arabia and is unlikely to see any jail time.
In July, the Syrian conflict escalated as the Red Cross declared it a civil war; around 17,000 people had been killed by that time. The opposition Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said on Tuesday that 85 percent of the people killed in the conflict – 39,520 – died in 2012.
Other Arab countries did not reach Syria’s level of violence, but protests and opposition activity were present throughout the year.
Egypt, the leader and bellwether of the Arab world, demonstrates how public opinion has become more important compared to before the uprisings began. We have witnessed ongoing protests from all sides of the spectrum, though it is true that the Muslim Brotherhood-backed regime has dealt strictly, and even harshly, with any opposition.

Here is the first part of true facts from Syria.
