The UN envoy for Syria says Syrian government air strikes have caused "unprecedented levels of destruction" and death in the town of Zabadani.

Large numbers of barrel bombs have reportedly been dropped on the area in the Qalamoun mountains north-west of Damascus, close to the Lebanese border.

Zabadani has been under attack for weeks by the Syrian army and fighters from Lebanon's Hezbollah movement.

It is the last significant town held by rebel forces in the Qalamoun region.

Its capture is seen as crucial to consolidating the government's control over the border zone between Lebanon and Syria.
Civilians 'caught in middle'

The army and Hezbollah launched an offensive to drive the rebels out of Zabadani on 3 July. Earlier this week, they advanced deeper into the town after having besieged it from all sides.

Why is deemed right for the US to totally obliterate towns within Syria while trying to rid them of insurgents

But wrong for the Syrian government to take similar, though often less violent, actions while trying rid towns within their own country's borders of insurgents?

Leads to the obvious question: If there is ever an internal conflict within American borders should other countries rush to America's aid and bomb American towns?

Would America be happy for other countries to wreak havoc and destruction within it's borders, leaving many thousands of people homeless and destitute, patting themselves on the back for all the good work they have accomplished yet refusing to help all those left penniless and homeless

At the end of the Second World War Britain paid out VAST sums of money to help rebuild the places it had destroyed during the conflict and help the innocent to rebuild their lives

I see no such support from America or it's coalition colleagues
