There is too much suffering in the world. It is not okay that the US bombed a girls school and it is not okay that you are shutting your mouths about

How do you not grieve this?
Why?
And not just this.
Many things.

You're not humans anymore.

Idk what's true anymore. Were they stocking civilians in key weapons locations so attacking would be a war crime? If true. Nothing I personally can do. Idk anymore news is...no idea what's true what's not. And outrage is pointless when you can't do anything about it without harming others.

@pride49 the fact that your go to is to find an excuse to think such an act permissable....nope

It's one thing to be indifferent, but I'm not seeing indifference. I'm seeing justifications, excuses, and defenses, explanations for why some suffering is okay, why some suffering is different.

It is not just Trump. There were many before him. And many bombings before this one..This is a disease of a nation. A manifestation of social and maybe even a global sickness.

I appreciate you speaking up and it does mean much to me as someone who is closer to this. People who look at the victims with sincerity offee better chance at healing than those who insist on reframing much of it , just for mediocre level of comfort.

@Miram You are right. It started when Europeans came here and slaughtered the natives. From that choice forward, I have never had respect for my country. I have never fed that system. My mom taught me, I love you mom.

Those that aren't sick or pretending to be are in a cage here. It fills me with rage I have learned to temper and use. But I don't see too many places on this planet left that aren't infected.

You have my deepest sympathies. I cannot fathom how this affects you, your communities and I wish I had the power to stop the sickness. Comfort is an illusion. I have come to realize the only thing I can do is speak up as a tiny voice of love and rage. And I will as long as I live.

My love to you 🖤 to all

🥺 It's heartbreaking. I could rage about many things in this world, especially those involving the children. But it could be consuming.

I believe it is necessary for the human race to learn to grieve the consequences of their sins in order to outgrow them.

Some of us more than others.

Even if it is consuming.

And especially grieving the unnecessary losses of the other side.

Sorry for not being more vocal in my outrage, it can be overwhelming. 😑

They didn't bomb the girls' school. They bombed the army building next door without caring or holding back from killing innocents. It was outrageous. The deaths are as bad as the girls' own government killing their own people for protesting. The sick minds of those behind both make the perpetrators culpable.

We didn't mean it doesn't cut it anymore.

I hope nothing in what I wrote leads you to believe that in any way I was excusing this atrocity. I am listening live to the latest BBC report which is quite clear that they have identified the missile as US and that the building it fell on was an IRGC facility. The school is adjacent. I just like accuracy.

@FreddieUK

I checked again and you're wrong.

Based on what investigators and analysts have said so far, it does not look like the school was only damaged by an adjacent strike.

The evidence to military investigators suggests the strike pattern involved multiple impact points in the area, and at least one munition appears to have hit the school building itself, not just the nearby facility IRGC..

So me calling it a bombing of school is not being inaccurate. You can google the investigations and check too.

I've checked the BBC site and they tell me that a US Tomahawk missile hit the building next to the school. They also report that there were other bombings in the vicinity and on that same building. Whatever, the girls were innocent victims of inhumanity. 🙁
I live among horrible people.
