In Syria, 'brother of a whore' gets tossed like trash
Source: CNN

The bloodied bodies lay stuffed and tangled in the back of a pickup like garbage.

Men lifted the bodies one by one and hurled from them from a bridge into a river below as cursing filled the air.

"Brother of a whore!" they shouted as the corpses splashed and the water ran red. "Animals!" "Dogs!"

At one point, a voice asks mockingly, "This is a soldier?"

3. At least our guys try hard to miss civilians and just get bad guys
I think that counts for something. For some, on the other hand, it's the tactic of choice.

What's happening in Syria just looks like an outright a massacre.

6. Saw the video this morning and they're most likely rebel forces tossing the bodies into the river
From the article:

But one prominent anti-government activist, who asked not to be named because of the dangers that could arise from the release of the information, told CNN the state TV account was correct.

The bodies are those of Syrian secret police killed by Syrian fighters from Iraq who have joined the anti-government fight, said the activist, who gets information about the goings-on in Syria from an extensive network of informants

Violent fringe elements have appeared during the Syrian tumult. One study last month from the International Crisis Group said some anti-government elements have taken up arms.
