"Al Jazeera (Arabic: الجزيرة, romanized: al-jazīrah, IPA: [æl (d)ʒæˈziːrɐ], literally "The Island", though referring to the Arabian Peninsula in context)[3] is a free-to-air international Arabic news channel based in Doha, Qatar that is operated by the media conglomerate Al Jazeera Media Network. The channel is a flagship of the media conglomerate and hence, is the only single offering to carry the name as simply "Al Jazeera" in its branding.
The channel's willingness to broadcast no holds barred views, for example on call-in shows, created controversies in the Arab States of the Persian Gulf. One of the station's office was the only channel to cover the War in Afghanistan live."

"Several foreign ambassadors to Syria have attended a condolence ceremony for a prominent slain Syrian activist in the Damascus suburb of Daraya.
Activists posted a video of US and French ambassadors to Syria conveying their condolences at the vigil of Ghiyath Matar.
Mourners who attended said security forces raided the ceremony after the diplomats left.

The Arab League has actually been pretty responsible here and this is an organization that usually backs authoritarian regimes in Arabia. The European Union and United States have been tough in their rhetoric against the Assad Regime. And have started economic sanctions against the Assad Regime. But other than that haven't done much to stop the Assad Regime from murdering its own people. The Assad Regime is an actual government, that is murdering their own people.
