Syrian death toll reaches 3500 civilians

The UN says 35 hundred civilians have been killed in Syria and despite that number, an LU Political Science Expert says there will be no western intervention.  Laure Paquette says the western world is concerned with the financial crisis in Europe.  Syria's leader Bashar Assad says he has stopped attacking civilians and is only targeting Al Qaeda but Paquette says now it seems everyone who opposes him is a member of the terrorist group.
