Johann Rousselot, photographer and journalist, is frustrated at the lack of attention and access to news from Syria. This is his response, he hopes you will share it with others.
NOTE: be advised this video compilation contains some images that are very graphic and may disturb some viewers.Russelot's edit is not gratuitously violent, his video also carries interviews and includes a particularly chilling slideshow of personal images found on the cell phone of one of Assad's bully-boy militiamen. It is hard to watch these brutal accounts coming out of Syria via personal cell phone and home video clips. Hard because these images are shockingly graphic and unforgiving. And difficult too, because this happened yesterday, it happened today and it will happen again tomorrow - unnoticed or unremarked on by the world at large. Where fresh hopes of spring turned into a listless summer of dreaming, a darkenning realism is prevalent in autumn it would seem. Not all dictators are equal and not all aspirations for freedom are supported. http://www.johann-rousselot.com/fr/ |
