Syria Murders Legendary American Journalist

Marie Colvin is not the first war correspondent to die in combat. Covering wars can be a dangerous occupation.

But the legendary American journalist (seen in the above photo), who was covering the revolt in Syria for London's Sunday Times, was reportedly targeted by the Syrian military of dictator Bashar al-Assad. She was murdered by shells aimed at the make-shift press center where Colvin operated in the City of Homs.

In my view, the U.S. should be assisting the rebels with arms, medical equipment and other logistics in their fight against Assad
