Yesterday we saw their blood. Today we see their faces, a happy couple, thrilled at the prospect of becoming parents in only two weeks time. They died with their baby, massacred along with at least one other pregnant mother, a gaggle of toddlers and so many more unarmed men and woman. At least 62 of them.
Your heart breaks for them all. Despair fills your soul. Then comes anger. What are these bone-headed terrorists actually hoping for? As they sit there, surrounded by death, do they think: " Well that showed them! They know what we can do now!"
We do. But why? What do they want. Support? No chance. Respect? Never. Fear? Well they got that, but then comes a compulsion to root them out, all of them, with their fundamentalist beliefs that leave no room for any kind of freedom.
Most religions seek followers. They offer a path to enlightenment. Just what are this lot offering?
