On Sunday, residents of Homs, Syria’s second-largest city, discovered the bodies of three Alawites mutilated and dumped in a deserted area, according to Omar Idlibi of the Local Coordination Committees, a group that helps organize and document protests. All three were armed government loyalists, he said.
News of the deaths enraged other Alawites, who went on a rampage, according to residents and activists. Three people were killed, including a mother of three, and scores of shops owned by Sunnis were burned and vandalized, Mr. Idlibi said.
“The reaction was so violent and quick that we suspect the regime had a hand in the killings,” Mr. Idlibi said.
For how long will they be lying about the blood on their hands? And for how long western media are going to give credence to these lies by publishing them?
UPDATE:
A letter on the sectarianism of the protesters
It seems that the main feature of the Syrian revolution 2011 is the alliance between western (US) funded Syrian exiles and salafis, the former using the latter as proxies in their attemtp to topple the Assad regime, but ultimately salafis also will use exiles. Here is a facebook page for the Homs revolution: on the upper right band they have a sourate in Arabic, it says: 'Paradise exists in the shadow of the sword' (attention, islamist facebook pages of the Syrian revolution in english or other non arabic languages do not show material that can offend western readers).

Dear Sophia,
I hope that everything is good from your side.
Seriously, who believe these news to even report it as facts?
It's getting ugly in Homs, clashes between armed gangs and the security and Army, yet people still denying the existence of any armed element.
Dear Jad,
I am fine, thanks for asking.
It is published in the New York Times! My impression is that the Syrian revolution 2011 has already lost the battle of hearts and minds in Syria but not in western press outlets!
I am just wondering how long will this drag on...The lies, the sectarian incitment, the denial of the western world (I am reading that they will be mking up soon with the MB and the Taliban because Hezbollah is the new devil!)
I only wish you were so diligent about pointing out numerous fraudulent claims of Palestinian refugees.
Anonymous,
Fraudulent claims of Palestinian refugees? Of Israeli settlers you mean...
Assad's new trick is to kill people at funerals.
