I know we’ve heard so much about Syria and it’s dire state of affairs, some stories just hit home harder than others and the human cost and absolute fuckwhittery going on over there

One six-year-old girl sticks in his mind. She did not talk at all. He was told she had watched as government forces raided her home, shut her father in a cupboard and set fire to it. They took her mother away too, no-one knows where.
“She screamed so much she lost her voice,” he says. He has visited her several times, and given her a Barbie and soft toy pony. “Her reaction is always the same, a beautiful smile.”
Goddamn why do I and my family have so much crap that we haven’t even got room for some of it and give it away etc and then there’s people with nowt.
