The stoic yet heart-filled war-correspondent, Marie Colvin, remains with us in spirit. At a time like this one must ask oneself, “Why write?” The practice of writing is irreplaceable. Colvin left behind truths undiscovered by the mediocre minds underlying the American-Media-Machine. CNN’s team pulled out of Homs, Syria. Marie Colvin breathed her last breath in a trail of smoke and information unearthed to be buried again.
If our best guess at “knowledge” is gained solely via primary experience, us Americans know nothing about what is going on in Syria, or anywhere else for that matter. Read between the lines, stop hiding, and Fight. Raise your voices now, while you are alive. Raise your voices with me. The time for apathy has been long exhausted.
