 First here's an article about the bombing.

ALJAZEERA INTERVIEW WITH COLONEL ASA'AD Today
-Anchorman: Colonel Riad Al Asa’ad, as a military expert, how would you describe the bombing in Al Midan today that resulted in the killing of more than 25 people?
- First, may mercy be granted to the martyrs. Second, the regime is starting to lose control over itself  because of the Syrian Revolution.This operation is just like the two earlier bombings in Damascus. We are used to this ever since the 80s. Why did the bombing take place in al Midan, Damascus, which is one of the most respectable cities in Damascus? And Al Midan is holding protests. The regime is doing this to terrorise the people and convince them with their lies.
WE DON’T HAVE THE KIND OF EQUIPMENT THAT ENABLES US TO MAKE AN OPERATION LIKE THIS, AND NO POLICTICAL PARTY IN SYRIA HAS THAT POWER.
-Do you still insist on taking the Syrian situation to the international community?
-THE ARAB LEAGUE IS IN A WEAK STATE WHEN IT COMES TO DEALING WITH THE REGIME. THE REGIME NOW IS PLAYING WITH THE CARD OF “BOMBINGS”.
-Mufti Hasoun said that he will bring the region to an explosive situation in the Gulf region?
- THEY THREATENED TO KILL THE FAMILIES OF THE REGIME’S OPPOSERS. THEY THREATENED TO KILL MY FAMILY NAD BURN MY VILLAGE.
-Aren’t you afraid that if the Syrian situation is taken to the International Community, it will bring disaster to the Syrians?
-KILLING HAVEN’T STOPPED FOR 11 MONTHS. THERE IS NO REVOLUTION IN THE WORLD THAT CAN HOLD ON FOR 11 MONTHS. THE ARABIC REGIMES ARE HELPLESS IN FRONT OF THE SYRIAN REGIME. IF THEY CAN’T TACKLE OUR ISSUE THEY SHOULD STEP ASIDE AND PASS IT TO THOSE WHO CAN. THIS REGIME'S LANGUAGE IS KILLING, TORTURE AND DESTRUCTION.
- What is the Free Syrian Army's position now in Syria, and what are its future prospects?
- WE ARE FROM THE PEOPLE AND WE SWORE TO PROTECT THE SYRIAN PEOPLE WHEN WE FIRST ENLISTED IN THE ARMY. IT IS OUT DUTY TO PROTECT THE SYRIANS AND PROTESTORS.THE SYRIAN REGIME TOOK ADVANTAGE OF OUR LATEST STATEMENT.
- Can the FSA hold on and increase its numbers?
- WE HAVE BATTALIONS IN ALL SYRIAN REGIONS. THE FSA ARE ORGANIZED AND WE ARE DOING INDIVIDUAL OPERATIONS, AND YOU SAW THAT. THE NUMBER OF DEFECTIONS ARE INCREASING EVERYDAY

-Making the revolution a military one, isn't that a strategic mistake?
-NEVER. WE HAVE THE REIGHT TO PROTECT OURSELVES AND CITIZENS AS WELL.
THE REGIME IS TRYING TO IGNITE A SECTERAIN WAR BY KILLING AND TERRORIZING PEOPLE. IT IS OUR FAITH TO PRESERVE AND PROTECT THE UNITY OF OUR COUNTRY WITH ITS ENTIRE SPECTRUM. THESE PEOPLE HAVE STOOD IN THE FACE OF OPPRESSION FOR FORTY YEARS
