Which would you prefer..leading a song with a group of supportive friends or braving whitewater (with training and support mind you, not just winging it since it looks good.) Be wise and thoughtful of your boating or singing buddies...and rescue crew and supplies.

Half a million Syrians have gone home from government refugee camps, Eva Bartlett reports. She has only met a few Syrians who oppose Assad.

 One person keyed me into the online debate about what is Really Going on in Aleppo, Syria at this time in April 2018. https://youtu.be/3JFEmCKHVME has live coverage.

A Canadian journalist is braving sharing important resources, and disclosing information about the White Helmets ($100 million in backing from others who want to topple the Syria government) and corporate interests.
