The Syrian Revolution 2011 Facebook group calls for new uprisings

A Facebook group that has been calling for recent protests in Syria posted calls for new "popular uprisings" in all cities in the country Saturday, a day after Syrian troops reportedly opened fire at peaceful protesters at deadly demonstrations, according to Los Angeles Times.

The call immediately drew many "likes" and comments. Now the group has more than 87.400 fans.

The group has been posting graphic video footage that claims to show brutality and horror at recent protests in Syria and updates on demonstrations and unrest.

The group says its main goal is "freedom in Syria" and demands the end of the state of emergency, eradication of poverty and unemployment, and changes in the constitution that would transition Syria into a "pluralistic democratic country."
