Homs, Syria. Most places would break from this level of cruelty, pain and brutality. Yet people told me again and again that they will rebuild from the rubble. We must be here with them, to recognize what they have lost, and to look forward to what they will become again.

12 years after Assad's militias celebrated killing Marie Colvin, Syrians are jubilant over the fall of Assad’s murderous regime. Colvin was deliberately killed for exposing Assad’s war crimes. I just wish Marie, the world’s greatest war correspondent, were alive to report this.
