I would scream into the blackness of the vicious hearts that are responsible for the horror if it would do any good. I fear it would not. The sound of my scream of outrage would be silenced by the cacophony of those whose beliefs blind them to the fearful truth of their complicity in the evil.
Jesus Christ supposedly said ‘Forgive them for they do not know what they do.’
I understand that October 7th is another day that will live in infamy.
I understand that the Israeli military dropped the ball. A female military intelligence officer who had data about what was coming was ignored.
I understand that the country lost 2,000+ people
But here we are 18 months later - the US complicit - and dead Gazans numbering between 55,000 & 90,000 - never mind all the starving, maimed, injured, homeless....
And for what?
Power?
Revenge?
Slipping approval numbers?
I had to decline any more contact with an Israeli friend who claimed that all this death was righteous until their military crushed Hamas. I was done.
No words adequately acknowledge what has been expressed here. I pray our future actions will have even some effect. We hardly deserve it since we continue allowing this and more.
This is so sad. I hope Putin has additional war crimes charge
s placed on him by the UN ICC. Every now and again, there is such a butcher which actions we so heinous that theu have lost the right to live. I hope someone gets Putin and hands him over.
My heart goes out to everyone who has lost family and friends.
The Ukraine is in my thoughts every day.
Every day I hope thete is enough weaponry to destroy Putins full armoury and enables Ukraine to retake the Crimea and other invaded areas.
I am sure there are millions of people like me who are with you in spirit.
Excellent essay. This Truth is undebatable.
Tears...
We hope you're not the only one
Just because you can't see them doesn't mean the heart's tears aren't there.
I have not accepted it.
It is not something I could ever accept.

I’m not yet ready to forgive.
Sadly they do know what they do and don’t care. If they cared they would not do these heinous things.
“Emptiness, stillness, quiet.
What the mystics say will save us.
Unless your heart is broken.
Then emptiness becomes a flood.
The stillness will turns dark.
And the “darkmotherscream” will fill the night.”

Holy fuck. I am a grown ass man, and I am bawling my eyes out. Well written, and beyond thought provoking. Soul provoking.

Such a powerful truth.
No words. Shocking.
Crying 😢
Sobbing. We are indeed monsters.
