"Αλάφρυνε σα φτερό η λέξη κι ας είναι βουτηγμένη στο αίμα. Όσοι καμώνονται ότι την κατανοούν και την υπερασπίζονται την έννοια παιδί, δεν κατέκλυσαν τους δρόμους της οικουμένης στο άκουσμα του βομβαρδισμού ενός σχολείου κι ενός νοσοκομείου γεμάτων με παιδιά. Κι όμως είναι οι ίδιοι άνθρωποι που κόπτονταν για τα παιδιά μόλις ένα μήνα πριν. Τα παιδιά της πέτρας, της αμφισβήτησης, της... του... Το παιδί γίνεται δυσθεώρητα αξιοσέβαστο στο δυτικό πολιτισμό μόνον όταν συνοδεύεται από κτητικές αντωνυμίες. Τα δικά μας. Το δικό μου. Αλλιώς αριθμοποιούνται, ταξινομούνται, ζυγίζονται σα λιπόσαρκα αρνάκια γάλακτος κι ύστερα βγαίνει ο λύκος και διευκρινίζει πως άμα το παιδί θεωρηθεί θώρακας ή ασπίδα του εχθρού, παύει να είναι παιδί και γίνεται απλώς χαλκομανία, αριθμός θυμάτων χαμένων στο σωρό."

Ours...Mine... In any other occasion children are numbered, categorized, weigh out like fleshless baby lamps and then...there comes the big bad wolf to decide whether this or that child is an enemy 'protector' or shield. Then the child is no longer considered to be a child...it becomes just another number on the pile of the lost victims and "collateral damage"...

I agree it is so terrible to see children ~ of any race, or religious belief they are accidentally born into ~ suffer I die needlessly.
Please stop the killing & the hatred in this world, that is all perpetuated in the name of 'Religion'.!!!
