implement a no-fly zone in northern Syria to protect civilians from regime air strike on densely populated cities.

Created by A.A. on August 16, 2012

More than 20,000 persons, including children and women, were killed by the Syrian regime. Recently, the Syrian regime escalated the killing by air strikes on densely populated cities. This led to indiscriminate killing and destruction of historical places. Today, 8/16/2012, air strike on Aleppo killed over 50 people who were standing on line to get bread at a local bakery. Similar air strikes yesterday destroyed the city of Azaz and forced 70% of the population to flea the city. The world is watching massacres happening and but doing nothing other than counting dead bodies. Airstrike also is destroying historical places, such as the citadel of Aleppo. A no fly zone would save life and history.
