Extraordinary footage has emerged on social media of jubilant and outraged Syrians looting deposed President Bashar al-Assad’s palace, carting off Louis Vuitton-branded boxes and other luxury goods after the regime’s stunning collapse.

The shocking scenes come hours after rebel forces Saturday reached Damascus, declaring the capital city “liberated” as Assad fled the country.

Footage posted online, which appeared to have been taken inside the palace, showed looters rifling through bed linens, clothes and kitchen items, with one person carrying a distinctive orange Louis Vuitton-branded box.

Assad’s wife, the British-born Asma al-Assad, was long known for her love of expensive possessions.

Useless leaders living large while the citizens live in deprivation

Reminds me of one man who threw his citizens into economic hardships only to buy jets, yachts and cars for himself

You're right

There's also a man whose handpicked godson summarily sacked all the doctors in his state civil service in one day because he refused to pay them their entitlements. That's how the hospitals were without doctors till the doctors were so humiliated they had to beg for their jobs back.

The same man was taking money directly from the state's tax for years while people were dying of hunger in the state

Same thing here in Nigeria: leaders are living large while people suffer. But the people suffering are vehemently taking sides on the basis of tribe and religion.

So na your Christianity go come solve the plague?

If we are to use the Bible as the sole constitution for one day all these disobedient stubborn/rebellious children will be killed!

If someone has a stubborn and rebellious son who does not obey his father and mother and will not listen to them when they discipline him, his father and mother shall take hold of him and bring him to the elders at the gate of his town. They shall say to the elders, “This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious. He will not obey us. He is a glutton and a drunkard.” Then all the men of his town are to stone him to death. You must purge the evil from among you. All Israel will hear of it and be afraid. Deuteronomy 21:18-21
