- On October 1987, Amnesty International released a report about torture in Syrian prisons. The report entitled, "SYRIA - torture by the security forces" clearly mentions in page 25 that: "... people arrested or abducted in Lebanon are usually transferred to Syria soon afterwards. However, they are usually taken first to prisons or detention centers in areas under the control or jurisdiction of Syrian forces. It is at this early stage in their detention, while undergoing preliminary interrogation, that detainees first experience torture or ill treatment at the hands of Syrian forces in Lebanon. As in Syria, torture continues throughout their subsequent detention..." The same report enumerates 38 methods of torture inside the Syrian detention centers and prisons. (Amnesty International, "SYRIA - torture by the security forces"- 1987; SOLIDE Org.,"UNReport1").

Lebanese complicity in abuses by Syrian forces sometimes goes beyond official acquiescence and becomes direct collaboration with Syrian forces in carrying out reported 'disappearances' ...". (Human Rights Watch / Middle East- May 1997).
In May 1984, the "Swiss Association for the Defense of the Liberties of Political Prisoners in Syria" published in Geneva, a document entitled "The Rights of Man in Syria" and which refers to the treatments exerted on political prisoners held by the Syrian Secret Services:
1. The prisoner is stripped naked.
2. His whole body is shaved.
3. Cigarette butts are extinguished over the most sensitive places of his body
4. They burn his scalp.
5. They pull out his nails.
6. They tie his genitals with a nylon thread that they secure to a nail on the wall after transfixing the prisoner to a ring fixed on the opposite wall. Then, one of the tormentors strikes the taut nylon thread repeatedly with a stick.
7. They flog the soles of a prisoner's feet with lashes of a whip, a cane, or a plastic pipe, a minimum of two hundred lashes a time.
8. Then, stretch out the prisoner inside a container of cold water.
9. They invert the prisoner into a car's tire's rim and then strike him all over (the process: they insert a leg into the middle of the tire, followed by the head and the arms in such a manner that the prisoner is bent over and immobilized in the form of a U inside the tire's circle).
10. They hang the prisoner by his feet with his head down.
11. They force the prisoner to remain standing during several days while preventing him from sitting down or falling asleep by ordering him to raise his arms fully stretched and very straight.
12. They force the prisoner to stand for long periods of time on one foot; administering blows each time he lowers his raised foot.
13. They force the prisoners to run while carrying heavy loads and sustaining blows until utterly exhausted or faint.
14. Pour, all of a sudden, boiling water over the prisoners.
15. They force the prisoner to sit on a stake.
16. They force the prisoner to sit on the neck of a bottle.
17. They subject the prisoner to electric shock by using an alternative electric current and tying the wires to the most sensitive parts of the body, especially the genitals.
18. They force pump water or air into the prisoner.
19. They force sexual intercourse with the prisoner.
20. They tear out chunks of the prisoner's flesh from various parts of his body with the help of pliers.
21. They rope the prisoner to a car and drive it to full speed until death occurs or till the victims' bodies are torn apart and then the victim's bodies are desecrated by gouging an eye or cutting an ear, the tongue, the fingers and in some cases the genitals, and by sticking them into the victim's mouth.
22. They force the prisoner to run around a large room surrounded by torturers who strike him with diverse instruments of torture.
23. Force the prisoner to drink his own urine.
24. They throw the prisoner into a basin of electrified water.
25. They tie the prisoner's genitals to prevent him from urinating after forcing him to drink diuretic liquids.
The Syrians, the Palestinians and their allies, massacred and killed approximately two hundred thousand Lebanese; handicapped twenty five thousand; exiled half a million citizens; kidnapped, deported and detained in Syria thousands of civilians whose fate remain unknown, until this day.
Despite the long and tragic list of monstrosities committed against the Lebanese over a period of 27 years, the world continues to protect Syria, reinforce its evil power over Lebanon and discuss Sabra and Shatilla as if no tragedy struck Lebanon before or ever after...

Seriously, the PLO has a long laundry list of mayhem and death. As for Syria, I suspect some of the perpertrators were ex-Nazis.
This is not a religion in any way.
There have been many, many [false] religions over the ages that utilized human sacrifice. This is just another in that horrid tradition.
