Quote: The Britain-based Observatory, which monitors the Syria war through a network of activists on the ground..."
Yes Wokkafans, we all know the facts regarding this lone voice collating reports from the ground. Would you prefer he lived in a palace?
We have the Syrian version, the Israeli version, and now the version of this network on the ground. There is little else available, so I for one am thankful for what triangulation there is. Besides, the Observatory has a pretty good track record of neutrality, on balance, and much of the information they provide cannot be found anywhere else.
