Ken Stone, longtime Canadian anti-war activist, has written a number of eye-witness reports from war-torn Syria, which he visited as part of the Second International Tour of Peace, April 12-18, 2016. This mission of solidarity with the people of Syria undertook to observe the Syrian parliamentary elections of April 13, 2016; the destruction and reconstruction efforts taking place in Homs; the reconciliation process being organized between the Syrian government and opposition forces; the damage wrought by ISIS terrorists to the world heritage site of Palmyra, liberated just a few days before the Tour of Peace arrived; and, generally, to meet with, and to listen to, dignitaries and ordinary Syrians about the western-inspired war of aggression against Syria which began five long years ago.
