Syrian security forces fired bullets and tear gas Friday at tens of thousands of protesters across the country, killing at least 75 people in the bloodiest day of the monthlong uprising and signaling that the authoritarian regime was prepared to turn more ruthless to put down the revolt against President Bashar Assad.
It seems like things are only going to get worse from here. I really don't see the army splintering into rebel factions or anything like that. The death toll will simply mount and the international community will sit around because they have their hands full in Libya.
