Photojournalist Robert King writes about his first-hand experience of Syria’s horrors:

I’ve covered my share of wars, but I’ve never seen one where so many kids are getting hit. There were infants who were hit, and they’re changing their diapers on the operating table. I’ve never seen anything like this. I took that picture of a little girl with her intestines spilling out of her tummy. There was one kid, a six-year-old, who got hit by one of the snipers based in the town hospital. He was shot in two places, near the heart and the lungs. But he survived. I don’t think I can go hunting anymore, back home. When you hunt deer, you aim for the heart and lung. As the doctor said, “They’re shooting to kill.”

If you have any interest in what’s going on in Syria, it’s a must-read. And if you don’t have any interest, you should read it for that reason.
