Hello Dear Roger!
I understand very well how You can feel about such horrors and how it can be so difficult to Forgive someone as the president of Syria. Now, I personally feel that there are here more than one issue involved here...
First, I started a thread here at The Forgiveness School that relates to The Story of Lucifer. The reason why I started this specific thread is that I know for sure that we will all have many many people to Forgive in a very short while and, the reading of this story had a very profound impact on myself and, I feel it could help many others as well... hopefully You My Friend. Here is how I started the thread...

Hello Dearest Friends,
For me, reading the story of Lucifer had a significant impact into my Life on many levels and this lead to the many reasons for Choosing to post this story here for all of You and in the context of The Forgiveness Alchemy forum in The Forgiveness School...
A- Through understanding the story of a person, We become able to Forgive. When I consider the Magnificent Being that Lucifer was and how he somehow felled into sin and evil, I realized how we are all walking on a very thin line and that it would be so very easy for anyone of us to fall as well. Considering such a Beautiful Soul, Creation of God, being lost forever, I was able to Connect with Love within myself, felt much sadness for this occurrence and was able to Forgive Lucifer for all of what I had been going through because of his rebellion. If I could do anything to save this Soul, I would do it right away without hesitation; though I understand that all possible has already been done in such an attempt.
However, here is where, how and when I and We will be able to Make a Difference... Since We are Now very close to the day that will bring much disclosure about the whole tyranny against humanity that has been going on for so long and, with it, the names of those involved; it is Fundamental in my opinion that We can refer to this story of Lucifer and remember that it might so easily have happened to us instead; and that being in the same situation they were, we would most certainly have done the same things. In this way, We will be able to Forgive them... thus, Healing ourselves in the process and allowing them through feeling loved to maybe Choose Salvation. We can Make a Huge Difference in Rescuing these Lost Souls. They are our Brothers and Sisters; They are a Part of Ourselves, as We Are all ONE. We are Love and the Love that We are can Show them the Way! Forgiveness is the Light!

Second, there is also the fact that We are now dealing not only with personal issues but also with collective issues that need to be cleaned as well as We are Now proceeding through our Ascension Process individually and collectively. About 2 weeks ago, there was a post made in one of the groups I am in Facebook about Kony2012... another horror story going on in Africa for more than 26 years already. Probably, You have already heard about it and about the Non-Profit Organization that is trying to stop him "Invisible Children". They are raising awareness through videos and collecting funds worldwide. However, they want to stop him in using the same old same old way... involving local government and army to get after Kony... it is not gonna work. We cannot create Peace with Wars... it's been tried over and over again! I posted clearly what was my stand about this and starting doing Ho'oponoponos lead me to Create another page on Facebook called "Divine Peace Makers". You could Join us and read more about it, about how We can Create Peace on Earth NOW by Joining Together as One since this is a collective issue. The link is here...
