NO MOTHER SHOULD GO THROUGH THIS...
A mother in Gaza holding the body of her little one, wrapped in white cloth, tied at both ends, cradling for one last time. Kissing the encased head of her three years old. My eyes cannot stop shedding tears, over the misery of that woman, what she is going through right now, when she is about to hand over this little flower back from where it came. Her baby will rest in peace in the ground, surrounded by oblivion of death, and she will walk away, to take care of her other little ones, with a heavy heart, waiting for martyrdom with patience, and asking Allah to take care of her kids and all the kids of Palestine, if she precedes in walking towards her own grave.
Human history is filled with misery, but nothing comes near the oppression faced by the people of occupied lands by colonialism , even a single breath is a challenge when the air is filled with smoke, gun powder and death.
It’s not enough if our children and we are safe, not being bombed, brutally murdered, ripped in two. People going through such atrocities are also our responsibility, regardless of faith, race, color and geography. Otherwise our children will get a distorted definition of morality by judging our actions or rather the lack of it.
