Syria Boy 13 yrs old, Brutally Killed In Custody

NICOSIA (AFP) – Pro-democracy activists in Syria called for fresh protests on Saturday after the alleged torture and killing of a 13-year-old boy by security forces in the flashpoint region of Daraa.

The body of Hamza al-Khatib was returned to his family on Wednesday, following his disappearance after a demonstration on April 29, activists said on their Facebook site, Syrian Revolution 2011.

“We will go out from every home, from every district to express our anger” over the killing, they wrote on the page which carries a picture of the boy.

“A month had passed by with his family not knowing where he is, or if or when will he be released. He was released to his family as a dead body. Upon examining his body, the signs of torture are very clear,” they said.

“There were a few bullets in his body used as a way of torture rather than to kill him with. Clear signs of severe physical abuse appeared on the body such as marks done with hands, sticks, and shoes. Hamza?s penis was also cut off.” deets here

This is when i completely loose my shit when i hear horrifying things like this. A 13 year old boy? I do not believe in promoting violence in anyway, but i am sure that i am not the only one who wants to get these security forces and beat the living shit out of them. Believe me, if i were left alone with these scumbags there would not be one left standing. I know that people will say you can’t eliminate violence with violence and blah blah blah. But people who murder like this have no worth to human society. Because they themselves to not value human life. In situations like this my peaceful nature takes a short drive to vacation land…

PS, There is a graphic video and photos of this kids body, but i am not putting it on the site because i feel that it is just plainly wrong.
