It always breaks my heart when I see the videos of children shaking with shock and stress following an Israeli airstrike. I won’t share any because some people aren’t in a good frame of mind to be so starkly reminded of how awful humans can be, but I’ve seen multiple ones. What is also frustrating is that these tragedies set the stage for new cycles of violence. You can’t traumatize whole generations of people into loving your country.

Poor kids. It’s horrific that Hamas would put their own people through this, I hope they are deposed soon so that they can get back to a normal life.
