"And I have found both freedom and safety in my madness, the freedom of loneliness and the safety from being understood, for those who understand us enslave something in us. But let me not be too proud of my safety. Even a Thief in a jail is safe from another thief. "

British doctors leave for Syria despite Abbas Khan death- The Guardian

A convoy of British doctors left the UK for Syria this weekend as aid groups vowed not to be deterred by the death last week of Dr Abbas Khan in a Syrian prison cell.
On Saturday Khan's body was being transported by the Red Cross into Lebanon, where it will be handed over to the British embassy. Meanwhile, a fleet of more than 40 ambulances carrying medical volunteers and supplies left on an eight-day journey to the war-torn country. Several had "RIP Dr Abbas Khan" emblazoned on the side. The vehicles will be driven into Syria and left there for local medics to use as makeshift health clinics and ambulances.
