that pretty much didn t happen. in today s speech he said he will crush any opposition and the opposition he called were terrorists with quote, an iron fist. the speech today was delivered at damascus, university. again we heard more of the sweet-talk about promises of reform, that things will change in their country, even talks about a possible referendum on the constitution. he also blamed the four media outlets for working against syria and in his words, quote, pushing the country to collapse. that claim doesn t really add up because foreign journalists are not allowed inside the country. meanwhile the violence and the bloodshed continues. the opposition is continued to be determined to bring down 40 years of assad family rule in syria. arab league monitors have been sent in to monitor and assess the situation. they were attacked throughout various towns in syria. the arab league says they will continue their mission there despite 11 people being slightly injured in various attacks.
