The RIP thread...

She was the only western journalist in town. They targeted her location with the intent of killing her. It was cold bloodied murder designed to prevent the truth of what those bastards are doing getting out. She was a very courageous woman.

The Sunday Times has opened it's pay wall on her last report. Well worth reading. You can see from that why those evil men wanted her dead and why what she was doing was so important.

Clive said it far better than I did.

Yup, and me.

I know he was French but let's not forget Remi Ochlik who died in the same attack.

I don't mean to poke the finger of controversy in here, but use of the word "murdered" is innappropriate here. They were in a war-zone.

His nationality matters not. That's why I said "they".

Of course. Marie Colvin's death has affected me greatly because I have been reading her stuff for years and admiring her work. Those that she worked with, both the Frenchman who died and the Liverpudlian who was injured, were courageous and worthy of admiration.

Hey, hey you Monkees, that's enough monkeying around at the expense of a dead person.
