There is a light that never goes out.

Sad to hear the news of the murder of Marie Colvin today; reporting on a situation that is horrendous to watch unfold.

Without very, very brave people like her, Hiram W Johnson's quote, "The first casualty when war comes is truth" would still ring perfectly true.

Instead we see quite how low the murderous bastard Bashar al Assad is willing to stoop to hang on to power.

Sobering. Heartbreaking. Inhuman.
