WASHINGTON - The White House says it is horrified by the brutal attack in Syria that killed more than 90 people, including at least 32 children.<br />
<br />
National Security Council spokeswoman Erin Pelton said Saturday that the attack serves as a "vile testament to an illegitimate regime" of President Bashar Assad. The head of the U.N. observer team said the assault on Houla, a group of villages northwest of the besieged city of Homs, killed more than 60 adults and at least 32 children under the age of 10.<br />

The White House said the Syrian regime responds to peaceful political protest with "unspeakable and inhuman brutality."
