1. Their impact on public opinion is that they posted pictures in Tokyo downtown and New York City. People were protesting with bread in their hand.

2. The reporting of The Civil War overall is that "Syrian forces are committing war crimes by using the starvation of civilians as a weapon of war, according to a new report by Amnesty International on crimes committed against Palestinian and Syrian civilians in the Damascus suburb of Yarmouk."

3. My reaction to this report is that the Syrian forces are doing bad because they're making their people starve.
