On this week of "Who dun it?" Mass murder of children!

[LordKiran]

A few days ago, during an evacuation of Syrian refugees, bombs went off near the buses used for evacuating the civilians. The explosions occured near a truck dispensing snacks to children, killing over sixty of them.

So who's responsible? Place your bets here!

I would be surprised if we can ever prove who did it.

Well LP, I can promise you one thing:

Whoever did it was doing god's work.

Not even real in my world but I blame the bomb itself if you ask. The bomb killed the 60 kids didn't it? Darn bomb. Found some heartbreaking stories linked from that article. Syria looks like it is having some problems. Best way to solve those problems? Hmm ship some more bombs over there?

Sure but they have to pay for shipping. We're doing okay but we're not made of fuckin' money. I mean, we can't even build that wall for the yard we've been wanting...

 

[another1]

True that. Some bombs ship themselves?

Got a joke for you. I made it up.

Guess why Mexico is paying for the wall>>

>>Because Trump is paying for the tunnels!

Good one?

 

[Derec]

Maybe it was her.

This one is funny though.

Mother of All Hypocrisies: Trump Cares for Some Syrian Babies Not Others
by ROBERT FISK

Do they feel no sense of shame? What callousness. What disgrace. How outrageous that our compassion should dry up the moment we realised that this latest massacre of the innocents wasn’t quite worth the same amount of tears and fury that the early massacre had produced. It fact it wasn’t worth a single tear. For the 126 Syrians – almost all of them civilians – who have just been killed outside Aleppo, were Shia Muslims being evacuated from two government-held (ie Bashar-held) villages in the north of Syria. And their killer was obviously from al-Nusra (al-Qaeda) or one of the Sunni “rebel” groups we in the West have armed – or quite possibly from Isis itself – and thus didn’t qualify for our sorrow.

The suicide bomber approached the refugee buses with a cartload of children’s cookies and potato chips – approaching, I might add, a population of fleeing Shia civilians who had been starving under siege by the anti-Assad rebels (some of whom, of course, were armed by us)

But what ultimately proves our own participation in this immoral and unjust and frightful civil war is our reaction to those two massacres of the innocents. We cried over and lamented and even went to war for those “beautiful little babies” whom we believed to be Sunni victims of the Assad government. But when Shia babies of equal humanity were blasted to pieces this weekend, Trump could not care less.

Trump could not care less.

Any reasonable leader would see it as thinning of numbers. I'd expect more kids be killed to make a dent in the problem. Trump does care, you see. He probably cares more about how many, than why or who. Terrible how these people think, but they do care, just not in the way they should.

At least they think they were.

Clearly it was ISIS or the rebels. I don't want to put the blame on all of the rebels, after all there is a spectrum of various groups whose attitudes range from hating the Shiites to really fucking hating the Shiites.
