Revelan masacre aterradora en Siria

Beirut, Ene.27.─ Una "masacre aterradora" en la inestable ciudad siria de Homs derivó en la muerte de más de 30 personas, incluidos niños, en un aluvión de morteros y ataques de las fuerzas armadas leales al presidente Bashar Assad, dijeron activistas.

Los detalles empezaban a surgir a partir de diversos residentes y activistas el viernes, al día siguiente del derramamiento de sangre. Los habitantes dijeron a The Associated Press que aún reunían información, pero que la ciudad estaba siendo sacudida por homicidios sectarios, disparos y explosiones.

"Ha habido una masacre aterradora", dijo el viernes a la AP Rami Abdul-Rahman, director del Observatorio Sirio por los Derechos Humanos, con sede en Gran Bretaña, y pidió una investigación independiente de los homicidios.

Siria controla estrictamente el acceso a los sitios inestables y en general sólo permite que los periodistas reporten en recorridos donde son escoltados, lo cual hace que el flujo de información sea más lento.

Los videos colocados por activistas en línea mostraron los cadáveres de niños envueltos en bolsas de plástico colocadas una junto a otra.

Annual Reports on Religious Freedom

The US Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) is an independent, bipartisan U.S. federal government commission, created in 1998 by the International Religios Freedom Act (IRFA). USCIRF Commissioners are appointed by the President and the leadership of both political parties in the Senate and the House of Representatives. USCIRF's principal responsibilities are to review the facts and circumstances of violations of religious freedom internationally and to make policy recommendations to the President, the Secretary of State and Congress.

These recommendations are formally presented through USCIRF's Annual Report.  The Department of State submits these reports to Congress in compliance with Section 102(b) of the International Religious Freedom Act (IRFA) of 1998.  The law provides that the Secretary of State, with the assistance of the Ambassador at Large for International Religious Freedom, shall transmit to Congress "an Annual Report on International Religious Freedom supplementing the most recent Human Rights Reports by providing additional detailed information with respect to matters involving international religious freedom."  Reports are available to the public (click on the titles below) and institutions may get free hard copies if requested.

Country chapters begin with a one-page overview of USCIRF's findings, the reasons for the country's designation by USCIRF, and priority recommendations for action. Each chapter documents events that took place over the reporting period, discusses relevant legal and human rights issues, emphasizes important elements of the bilateral relationship with the U.S., and details recommendations that would promote freedom of thought, conscience, religion or belief.

The USCIRF released on April 28 its 2011 Annual Report and recommended that the Secretary of State name the following nations "countries of particular concern" or CPCs: Burma, China, Egypt, Eritrea, Iran, Iraq, Nigeria, North Korea, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and Vietnam. CPCs are "nations whose conduct marks them as the world's worst religious freedom violators and human rights abusers."
