Gunfire near U.S. embassy in Damascus
    #6052335 - 09/12/06 02:07 AM (17 years, 8 months ago)

I wonder what the hell is going on.
Quote:

DAMASCUS (Reuters) - Smoke rose from the Rawda area housing the U.S. embassy in central Damascus on Tuesday and the sound of heavy gunfire was heard around the complex, witnesses said.

The witnesses said Syrian security forces had surrounded the embassy building and sealed off the area.

No other details were immediately available.

The area also houses vital security installations and the houses of the most senior officials in the Syrian government.



"It appears that the embassy is coming under attack," one resident in the area told Reuters.

PEACE

:mushroom2:zippoz:mushroom2:



"in times of widespread chaos and confusion, it has been the duty of more advanced human beings - artists, scientists, clowns, and philosophers - to create order. In such times as ours however, when there is too much order, too much m management, too much programming and control, it becomes the duty of superior men and women and women to fling their favorite monkey wrenches into the machinery. To relieve the repression of the human spirit, they must sow doubt and disruption"

"People do it every day, they talk to themselves ... they see themselves as they'd like to be, they don't have the courage you have, to just run with it."
