Syria: From Deadly to Deadlier

Who were the officials killed in the Damascus bombing?

A bombing in Damascus killed two of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s top security officials, the Post reported, and the opposition Free Syrian Army claimed responsibility for the attack. Dawoud Rajha and Asef Shawkat were reportedly central to the Assad regime.

In one of the boldest strikes yet against the Syrian leadership, terrorist bombs killed advisers close to President al-Assad.

Of course, one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter. What effect will this development have on the situation inside Syria and/or the global response to it?
