Being a bit of out-of-touch with world events, I saw a post from a Facebook friend, sharing a link to a comic depicting turmoil in Syria. While sometimes I usually save such reading material for a later time, this time I decided to have a good look out it. After all, it was a comic, so it didn't really take that much time to read. However, usually schoolwork or other distractions get in the way of my careful reading of current events.
