(10,997 posts)116. There weren't cell phones then to capture all the horrific child deaths
We just have a few images - mostly groups of people running or dead -fuzzy black & white images. Now we have high definition images/videos of hundreds of injured, dying and dead children. Children speaking about watching their siblings & parents die with uncontrollable shaking -HUGE difference. This is going to make people angry and many will probable want to blow things up. The world is now more scary than any time in history. We know every big city in the world is on high alert. We now have billions at pro Palestine rallies in most countries around the world - billions of people at rallies who have seen images of hundreds of dead & injured children. I was over on TicToc and cant get these innocent suffering kids out of my mind. Millions of American kids seeing these images and thousands of young kids posting they want to take care of the Palestine children. This will insight hate forever. Netanyahu is a right wing stupid eviil man -he is putting all innocent Jews lives at risk too. We now have billions of angry people.
Check out the millions at world pro Palestine rallys.

How are you so comfortable with wanton killing of innocent children by the 1000's?

Killing innocent people is wrong period. And you are not a mind reader.

Oh! oh! I know, lets ask NRA how many? They must have a dead-children number they can't accept.

Yes, said Ukraine was "another bungled attempt to reassert U.S. global hegemony."
