Syrian Truce Breaks Down - Completely Unexpected

On October 18, Turkey calls for truce in Syria for Muslim holiday

Today:

Fighting mars Syria holiday truce; protests resume

The Syrian military has agreed to cease military operations for four days beginning Friday morning with the start of the four-day Eid al-Adha holiday, in line with a truce proposed by international envoy Lakhdar Brahimi and endorsed by the U.N. Security Council.
Fighting, car bomb mar Syria holiday truce

Is this a truce? Within hours, bullets again flying in Syria

Bashar Assad is well on his way to beating his dad hafez's kill record at Hama so why should he stop now?

Seriously, they've got no problem attacking other religions on their holy days, so did anyone really expect them to honor a truce occasioned by one of theirs?
