We have not seen this kind of documentation since the Nazis and Nuremberg, he said. We dont normally see this in modern international criminal law because we are dealing with atrocities that take place in what I call dirty little wars, where the parties are Third World rebels and armies who are not trained. This is very compelling evidence that the Assad regime has an industrial-scale killing machine grinding their own civilians into dust. Here in Syria, we have a systematic killing of civilians in a way that is governmentally sponsored, according to a procedure: We have bodies that show starvation and torture, they are numbered by the intelligence service, by the forensic teams, by the processing teams, they have produced reports compiling the numbers, which they then processed, signed off, stamped and forwarded up the chain in the Syrian government - and we have the individual who took the pictures. You really, frankly, cannot get any better evidence. #assadwarcrimes aljazeera/indepth/features/2014/01/syria-regime-industrial-scale-killing-2014122102439158738.html
