    The U.S. State Department laid out a new case against Syrian President Bashar Assad's regime on Monday: Not only has the Syrian government committed mass atrocities at its military prison complex outside Damascus, but for years, it has also added to the structure in order to burn and secretly dispose of thousands of its victims' remains.

    "Beginning in 2013, the Syrian regime modified a building within the Saydnaya complex to support what we believe is a crematorium," Stuart Jones, acting assistant secretary for Near East affairs, told reporters at a special media briefing, circulating satellite photographs that he says depict that crematorium.

    "Although the regime's many atrocities are well-documented," Jones continued, "we believe that the building of a crematorium is an effort to cover up the extent of mass murders taking place in Saydnaya prison."

    Can't wait for Spicer's announcement that not even Nazi Germany used crematoriums.

    Yes, we should have bombed the prison so Syria wouldn't have had to kill the prisoners. It was really rude of us to make Syria have to kill these people.

    We weren't at war in Syria before Obama, there were prison or bodies being burned.

    Do you even remember what you have previously posted?

    You've criticized Obama for not sending troops into Syria.

    You've also praised Trump for not sending troops into Syria.

    You've criticized Obama for bombing Syria.

    You've praised Trump for bombing Syria.

    You've criticized Obama for not standing up to Russia and attacking their ally Syria.

    You've praised Trump for wanting to be friends with Russia.

    You do understand that Russia is backing Assad, the same Assad that is gassing and burning his own people?

    That is sick. I am also surprised Trump didn't take credit for this story.

    You post a lot of bullshit. I shouldn't bother to respond beyond this.

    You do realize that Russia wasn't even in Syria, backing Assad or anyone else. Thanks Obama.
