Lion Heart 15,041 Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 (CNN) ISIS-affiliated militants captured more than 300 workers and contractors at a cement factory, state news reported Thursday, in what appears to be another example of the terror group acting out against civilians -- this time not far from Damascus. The state-run Syrian Arab News Agency reported Thursday, citing a source in Syria's Ministry of Industry, that the al-Badiyeh Cement Co. reported more than 300 people were being held by ISIS. The company had not been in contact with its workers or contractors as of late Thursday afternoon. .. The factory is about 30 miles (48 kilometers) northeast of Damascus, the Syrian capital and base of President Bashar al-Assad's government. http://www.cnn.com/2016/04/07/middleeast/syria-war/index.html?adkey=bn ▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SychosSoChic 9,995 Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 The president should consider moving as far from the factory as possible before he's captured or just straight up executed. Life ain't Hollywood for any one of us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not about Bashar, its about ISIS taking over the capital of Syria.. if they do that, Syria will officially be for ISIS and they will start to take over lebanon and Jordan.

LebaneseDude 6,146 Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 I hate Bashar as the next guy. Frankly I hope they all kill each other. But the lesser of two evils is that he remains rather than being defeated by ISIS. Oh and I hope the factory workers aren't in deep ****. Edited just now by LebaneseDude.

LeoFameMonster 1,592 Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 They keep attacking other muslims and attacking civilians in their own country so I think they have no clue what their agenda is anymore. So maybe other Arab countries will intervene at a higher extent than already happening. We all know they have enough money to end it. and maybe more civilians will report isis suspects because not even muslims and civilians are safe.
