“They are killing us… we can’t kill you. We can’t kill you. You hear us, Occupiers. We’re just kids and parents with no intention of doing anything…”
“The explosion happened by my house..I’m speaking English because I want to save my planet. I’m from Palestine… it’s not fair…”
“When I was born I only hear explosions… I never hear happiness… kids are dying. Is this a Eid? Is this an Eid? Kids dying…”
“I’m only 10…I want to be a doctor to help my people, but I can’t. I’m just 10. I don’t even know what to do. I get scared… I’d do anything for my people, but I don’t know what to do. I’m just 10… it’s not fair.”

I don’t think bombing civilians in war torn countries is an unfortunate necessity like it literally doesn’t have to happen and I don’t understand how people can be so indifferent about it if their team is doing it….you know 90% of the victims of Obama’s air strikes were civilians. And civilian means woman, girl, or male child under fighting age. Adult men weren’t counted towards civilian death tolls. So the actual civilian death toll is closer to 100%. Our military is literally a terrorist organization and nobody cares as long as the president is a decent orator. All of those people are just as real as you are. A million innocent people have died as a result of the Iraq war both directly and indirectly and only a handful of us seem to lose any sleep over the fact that this terrorism is done in our names witn our money. People talk about them like they’re cockroaches. It makes me sick to my stomach
