Book excerpt: Witnesses to War: The Children of Syria by Bassam Khabieh provides an insider's account of the impact that the war in Syria has had on children. It illustrates the incredible resilience of Syria's young in the face of violence as children and their families held onto fragments of normalcy. Bassam did not start out as a photographer. But when the war broke out in Syria and violence escalated, it was clear that there was an urgent need for he and other Syrian's to ensure that the world knew what was happening in their increasingly isolated and dangerous homeland, so he picked up a camera. Now, years after the violence began, the Syrian people are waiting for justice. These photos will not bring back the childhoods that have been lost. But war criminals must be held accountable, and these images bear witness. They are evidence.
