I spent time with people who had what in Iran we used to call "shell shock", adult soldiers who had nerve and internal injuries because of explosions close to them, not to mention the psychological impact of living through such nightmare. Can't imagine how it is for children, as young as 4 years old to have lived through such horror, plus the loss of the parents, siblings and in a lot of times, the entire family.
War is hell, for everyone, specially civilians, but for innocent children who are caught in the middle of something they had no role in creating or ability to change is so much worse. Reading some of the comments on FB page of Unicef on this post made me really sick.
I understand people having strong feeling about people in other countries, even other religions and race (even thought I hate it), but making fun of suffering of children, no matter who they are is just something I do not understand. One must be really evil to think that suffering of an innocent 4 year old is anything but tragic and unacceptable. But, sadly, we are in the new world of post 9/11, trumpism and post october 7, inhumanity and hate is no longer hidden or condemned, it is openly said and shared with pride and lots of likes and support from similar people who lack humanity and empathy.
