Security men, most in plain clothes, speckle the main market square of Deraa, a town of 350,000 near Syria's border with Jordan. Yet in the brief time given for visiting journalists to stray from a scripted tour that highlights "terrorist" attacks on state property, a few ordinary citizens dare to speak. "We are so scared," says a woman clutching a boy's hand. "I come out to buy food, which costs more every day, but never know if I can make it home again." A young man with burning, bloodshot eyes lifts his shirt, revealing two bullet scars. "We will never give up," he declares as men in leather jackets approach to hustle him off. A middle-aged shopper pauses briefly before slipping into an alley. "God help us," he whispers in deliberate English.
