Also, opposition claims that it was not a suicide attack and that rebel insider planted a bomb inside the building, left it and detonated it remotely.
A group called the Abu Omar Battalion has reported that the Army has pulled out of Midan in Damascus and left their equipment behind.

Sorry what ? He is fighting an armed rebel force !Originally Posted by Miramar
Let's not judge what is Christian and whats not other defense ministers killed several times more people than this one.
STOP defending the rebels!
Nobody cares about human rights or whatever, ITS all about Sunits fighting Alawits and Christians!
Are you really that brainwashed, every near east expert will confirm you this!
Hmmm if things go south (i mean more south than now) what about the Syrian CW stockpile (VX, Tabun, Sarin, Yperite) ?
FSA should get it , since they are the good guys.
Option A, some foreign power will not risk it and bomb it, hopefully destroying all of them
Option B, they won´t and region may be very seriously fvcked
so are the rebels wining now :/
Let's hope not!
Well, it better be secured and not sold to terrorist groups on the black market, or one day some western cities could wake up with terrible headaches... I'd hope it could be secured by foreign SF from the NATO or that the new regime gives strong guarantees, verifiable under inspection by the UN.
Leaving materiel and equipment behind sounds like a debacle.
Option A seems unlikely. The stockpile is probably big if not huge and not concentrated in a single area/warehouse as was the Lybian 10t of mustard gas.
I am afraid to lean toward option B
Clashes in tripoli lebanon between jabal al mohsen and bab al tabaneh
Thanks, explains my difficulty in finding it.
So as a running count that's:
Minister of Defence Dawoud Rajha - Dead
Deputy Minister of Defence (and Assad's brother in law) Assef Shawkat - Dead
Minister of Interior Mohammad Ibrahim al-Shaar - Wounded
Head of National Security Hisham Bekhtyar - Wounded
Sounds like the rebels managed to penetrate a meeting of Syria's Crisis Cell.
Anybody has some verified figures about the manpower of the army and the rebels ?
Riad Assad (no relation to Bashar) who's commander of the FSA says Operation Damascus Volcano has been planned for a while now and that they'll do their best to avoid any civilian casualties. Tanks have surrounded the Presidential Palace and other key government installations.
Probably figured it's not very wise to stick around.Leaving materiel and equipment behind sounds like a debacle.
LOL and now somebody should tell me that there is no MASSIVE support from Saudia Arabia....
