Bashar al-Assad and his regime have committed unspeakable evil against the people of Syria and they must be brought to justice.  This video shows some disturbing documented footage of crimes committed by the Assad regime.  As graphic as these videos are these videos were carefully edited to exclude the most graphic scenes.  After making this video having to view the full videos of the documented footage and painstakingly editing out the most disturbing scenes I became both disturbed and enraged at the crimes this brutal regime has committed.  Working on this project and my activism for a Free Syria has made me appreciate the freedom I enjoy as an American citizen more then ever and caused me to feel a strong sense of empathy and compassion for the Syrian people and oppressed people everywhere.  We must come together as a world and stop these terrible and awful crimes against humanity and bring Bashar al-Assad and his regime to justice.  We can not wait a moment longer for we already have waited far too long.  

Get involved here: http://free-syria.newsvine.com/

I Dedicate This Video To The People of Syria: May the martyrs be remembered and honored, the victims who have died be memorialized in the memories of their families and communities, the victims still living be comforted.  May Syria soon be free and may Bashar al-Assad and his regime soon meet their fate rather prison or death.  We stand with you in your struggle for the right to live, the right to be treated with dignity, and the right for freedom.  We will continue the fight abroad outside of Syria to get the world to pay attention and work towards finding a solution to end the genocide in Syria and end this brutal regime once and for all.
