SYRIAN MILITARY KILLS MANY REBELS AND FINDS HUGE CACHE OF WEAPONS IN HAFFA

After disinfecting Haffa of the Syrian al Qaeda rebs in Haffa the Syrian military found that the rebs had a massive cache of weapons, which included sniper rifles and RPG launchers.

The Syrian government also asked the UN observer mission to inspect the area and the circumstances.

We can now see why the NATO media cried foul about this particular operation by the Syrian military. They were trying to get Assad to stop it so the rebs could survive and with their huge cache of weapons intact.

But it didn't quite work out that way.

Many rebs were killed and the huge cache of weapons was found.

NATO media reported the attack by the Syrian military, portraying it as slaughter of civilians, but are so far not reporting the deaths of many rebs or the discovery of this huge cache of weapons.
