"And I have found both freedom and safety in my madness, the freedom of loneliness and the safety from being understood, for those who understand us enslave something in us. But let me not be too proud of my safety. Even a Thief in a jail is safe from another thief. "

Syrian army regains control of strategic area outside of Damascus- Al-Akhbar

Syrian army on Monday seized control of a strategic area outside Damascus used by rebels to fire mortar shells at the capital, state media and a monitor said.
State television broadcast live images from Dakhaniyeh, southeast of Damascus, and the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights confirmed that "rebels have withdrawn."
The capture comes nearly a month after the army launched an offensive to regain control of the area, from which rebels have launched mortar shells against the Old City of Damascus and the pro-regime Jaramana district outside the capital.
The army "restored security and stability to Dakhaniyeh and its surroundings," state television said, adding that "a large number of terrorists" were killed.
