30 September 2015 – Holding up a photograph at the podium of the General Assembly of three-year old Aylan lying face down on a Turkish beach – the Syrian boy who drowned at the beginning of the month along with his mother and brother – the President of the Council of Ministers of Lebanon reiterated his country’s call to all powers in the world to “end the ongoing massacres.”
“The whole world contemplated with horror his 3-year-old body washed ashore to his eternal rest,” Prime Minister Tammam Salam told world leaders. “His tragedy sums up the prevailing fundamental human rights in our region.”
He said the picture describes the story of “tormented people, drifting in the seas to nowhere, jam packed on the sidewalks in cities and train stations, waiting for a permission, a visa or simply a meal.”
On Wednesday, Russia began bombing Syrian rebels in a major escalation of the 54-month war that has the US searching for answers.
The bombing campaign, which apparently targeted rebels unaffiliated with the Islamic State, "completely bypasses every bit of legitimate discussion we've had with them so far," a defense official told Politico.
Russian President Vladimir Putin and US President Barack Obama had reportedly agreed about fighting ISIS and opening lines of communication between their militaries to prevent any accidental conflict.

LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - Inquisitr reported Todenhöfer, a former MP with Angela Merkel's CDU party, spent 10 harrowing days on the ISIS frontline. He "dodged bullets" while being chauffeured by the notorious video executioner "Jihadi John," also known as Mohammed Emwazi.
"The terrorists plan on killing several hundred million people," he wrote. "The west is drastically underestimating the power of ISIS." Todenhöfer was reportedly only allowed to get close to ISIS because of his reputation as an outspoken critic of U.S. policy in Iraq and Afghanistan.
"This project was opposed by my family for seven months. My son ultimately accompanied me - against my will. He meant to protect me. And he filmed there."

BEIRUT (AP) — Syria has already been shattered by more than four years of civil war, and with no solution in sight, some players on the ground and observers outside have concluded its fate will be to break up along sectarian or regional lines — in a best-case scenario, tenuously held together by a less centralized state.
A true partition would risk yet more mayhem, including ethnic or sectarian cleansing and battle over every bend in the border. But so spectacular is Syria's disaster that many wonder whether its disparate groups can share a unifying national sentiment again.
