It has been two months, Two agonising months of consuming grotesque materials. We've witnessed horrifying scenes of babies dying without their parents, Parents carrying the lifeless bodies of their children, Children fleeing their homes with their petrified pets, Pets and animals cowering in the shadows, Innocent beings caught in the crossfire of barbaric human madness. Yet, you argue, "Social media is an unreliable source of news." I say, "What in the world of cognitive dissonance?!" You argue, “It’s a matter of perspectives; there are multiple truths.” I say, “Postmodernism didn't come into existence to justify atrocities against civilians.” **** your mindless rhetoric!__ I stand with the truth where history didn’t only start on October 7th, 2023. I stand with the truth where instead of babies dying in the hospital alone, They get to grow up healthily with their parents. I stand with the truth where instead of parents burying their deceased children, They carry their children home because they fell asleep in the car. I stand with the truth where instead of children leaving their homes with trembling animals in their arms, They run around and play fetch with their pets in the backyard. I stand with the truth where starving pets no longer wait at their bombed homes, wondering where their families went. I stand with the truth where we live in a world where compassion triumphs over cruelty, love prevails over hatred, and justice conquers over oppression.
