Just when we think that the human race can’t sink any lower, it does.
What a contrast. Once wars were just between armies and didn’t involve innocent civilians at all.
Now look at it: devastated men, terrified women and shrapnel pitted children, very often with lost limbs.
How could we? Their homes flattened, possessions gone, families wiped out.
Sometimes in the name of religion, sometimes lack of trust in the opposing side who may or may not keep their word. Again, sometimes like youngsters having a furious tantrum, they are so wound up they don’t know how to stop any more.
Targeting hospitals, churches and other recognised places of refuge and using vulnerable people as human shields is cowardly and sickening.
It is time surely to stop and rethink in the name of whatever God they believe in and start caring again.
Mrs J Archer, Rusper Road South Worthing
