In Syria today at least two people were killed and five wounded in Homs as villages fell under heavy gunfire, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights. This follows Monday's killing of at least 100 people, many of them soldiers attempting to desert an army base in northwest Idlib province, in one of the bloodiest days in the nine-month-long unrest. The Arab league announced today it is sending peace monitors to the isolated country. They are expected to arrive Thursday. For more, we're joined by Anna Neistat, associate director for emergencies at Human Rights Watch and co-author of the report, 'By All Means Necessary!': Individual and Command Responsibility for Crimes against Humanity in Syria," She joins us from Paris.
