The new constitution is touted by President Bashar al-Assad's government as a promise of reform and a chance for the people to have a say in how they are governed through a multi-party parliamentary election.Yet even as it paints a bright picture of a democratic future for Syria, the government is mercilessly killing its critics by attacking unarmed civilians with tanks and heavy artillery.
"It's a phony referendum, and it is going to be used by Assad to justify what he's doing," said Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
Speaking during an earlier interview, Secretary Clinton asked, "What about the people in Damascus, what about the people in Aleppo? Don't they know that their fellow Syrian men, women, and children are being slaughtered by their government? What are they going to do about it? When are they going to start pulling the props out from under this illegitimate regime?"
