In this Thursday, Jan. 7, 2016 photo, Lina Mahameed, a Syrian artist and refugee from Daraa, holds a color portrait she drew of one of the people killed in the Nov. 13 attacks in Paris by the Islamic State extremist group, next to a photo of the victim she downloaded from the Internet, in Amman, Jordan. Mahameed hopes to send her portraits to the victims' families to show that “their tragedy is like our tragedy.”  Mahameed said they fell victim to the same fanaticism that killed her 16-year-old son Yasser at the beginning of Syria’s civil war.
