Reminiscing with a dear friend from Iran about our memories as kids on opposing sides of the 8yr long Iraq-Iran war. We cried together & then laughed that the govts of those countries are now ‘friends’

Sickening how the egos of those in leadership cause the suffering of so many.

We're seeing horrifying images of children and civilians killed in Gaza-yet again-as they shelter in a school which must always be protected.  
 
The carnage must end. 
 
The suffering must end. 
 
This nightmare for children must end NOW!

My timeline is like schools bombed and children dying vs debates about inheritance tax.

Talk about putting things into perspective, hey?

Growing up in Iraq, we experienced external collective punishment via war and sanctions for the actions of a dictator (and his supporters) who were oppressing us.

We were sandwiched between two horrors & we didn’t deserve either.

It is wrong.
In all settings.
In all places.

I’ve noticed some accounts with big following here keep posting certain stuff just to please their audience.

For me, I can promise you this: I never have & never will!

I post my convictions & what I feel needs saying. That is because I respect you. Even if you don’t like it :)

Today World Health Organization (WHO) led a very high risk United Nations assessment mission to Al-Shifa hospital in .

The team saw a hospital no longer able to function: no water, no food, no electricity, no fuel, medical supplies depleted.

Given this deplorable situation and the condition of many patients,…

These journalists are incredible. They literally are the world’s eyes in right now and they’re being deliberately targeted. They’re mothers, daughters and sisters - just trying to stay alive to tell us what’s going on inside IMS

I can’t tell you how much I respect Greta Thunberg

The bravery.
The moral compass.
The determination.
The hope.

A role model for all people of all age groups and backgrounds.

Before I had my own children I worked with Save the Children International

For over 100 years, STC has worked for children regardless of nationality or background.

“We will continue to do so until our help is no longer needed.”

Our task to support all efforts to reach that point.

The horror of witnessing such injustice is immense.

The horror of witnessing the carelessness about it pierces the heart even more.

International pressure is key to ending this suffering. Saying otherwise is deflection and cowardice.
