An excerpt from the anthology of newspaper articles entitled Syria a Descent Into the Abyss by Robert Fisk, Patrick Cockburn, and Kim Sengupta.

The book contains a profoundly interesting historical narrative of the conflict in Syria beginning with the conflict's origins as a protest against the torture and murder of two teenagers by the Syrian Mukhabarat. Fisk's articles in the book are scathingly critical of the Western response to the conflict, at the best of times forming incisive critiques of Western hypocrisy and self-interest.
