fundamental. we agree that the state institutions will remain intact. we agree that the rights of all syrians regardless of ethnicity or religious denomination must be protected. >> diplomats had hoped the presence of iran might finally lead to a break through and while the sense of guarded optimism had bolstered efforts of diplomacy, it altered little on the battlefield. on friday in syria dozens more were killed on a missile attack on a crowded marketplace in duma and in aleppo, 27 were hit by air strikes claiming at least 80 more lines. one reason why the activists were so angry. chanting against syrian president bashar al-assad, while expressing how distrustful they were of ending the conflict in
