The War Reporter's Memorial was built to remember the fallen who seek not to fight but to tell the truth. Each column has a year and the names of war or conflict reporters who died in that year.
The stone says, "One may only taste freedom when others around us are free".
Here are the reporters who died in 2012. Shoukri Ahmed Ratib Abu Bourghoul was a Syrian journalist who was killed by armed persons when heading home after a radio show. Each has a story.
Another quote on a stone, "We must uphold freedom of speech. It is the basis for all other freedoms: it is how we enlighten each other" by Voltaire.
