I think, another people's power will be happened in the world history.
The government have to do something to end these protests and also they do not have to kill the protesters they can end this problem through the peace talks only so they have to make a discussion with protesters and kill this problem immediately.
In my opinion, Syrian protests are a disgrace to the whole country. People of Syria are destroying their own country without any good reason. I hope they grow up soon!
