see it on that piece of tape. these helicoptering can move quickly into an area. they can stay over a target for a period of time. they can loiter and fire their rockets and their weapons round after round after round into civilian areas with great precision but indiscriminately. they are the killing of women, children and civilians continues in syria, and these helicopter gunships are just going to add more advantage to the syrian regime, at least for now until somebody does something about it. don?
