to hear your story. It is equally important for us to hold these images in our minds as each and everyday the same scenes are recreated; many of the bodies being women and children. The body count has increased to horrific levels since the lsos has taken over and increased use of drone warfare. This is carnage and blood on our collective hands.
We must inform ourselves of the suffering that war brings to the human family and commit our lives to ending the madness.
Thank you so much for sharing and for your bravery and courage!
