Kim Kardashian wades into Syria war debate

FILE - In this Oct. 4, 2012 file photo, television personality Kim Kardashian poses for photographers at the red carpet during the 40th anniversary of Cosmopolitan magazine in Spanish in Mexico City. Kim Kardashian has waded into the unlikely waters of Syria's civil war, calling on her supporters to save the ancient Armenian village of Kassab, whose residents fled as rebels seized control of the hamlet in late March, seemingly comparing their flight to the Armenian genocide of the early twentieth century. Her tweet prompted an onslaught of gory images of beheaded men, slain bodies and smashed churches that social media followers incorrectly attributed to the Kassab battle. In doing so, the world's most famous woman of Armenian descent, underscored how Syria's war, more than any other in history, has been waged on the internet.
