Rebel bombing kills top Syrian leaders, including Assad’s brother-in-law

Rebels in Syria launched a brazen attack in Damascus this Wednesday.  They released a bomb beside a high level meeting of security ministers killing three top regime officials which included Bashar Assad’s (the President) brother in law.

This may signal a change in what now looks like a civil war.

According to US Defense Secretary Leon Panetta the bloodshed is “rapidly spinning out of control” in Syria.

The officials killed (as reported by state run television) include: General Dawoud Rajha, General Assef Shawkat and General Hassan Turkmani.
