The recent bombings in Syria.

Recently, as we all know, there has been a lot of violence happening in Syria. The US and other countries have failed to send enough aid. There is so much more we can do to help but we don’t.

Since the beginning of 2018 over 3404 civilians have died and in 2017 around 10204 civilians have died. These statistics also include women and children, innocent women and children dying due to the violence going on.

The UK, US and France sent missiles to what they said were multiple chemical weapon factories in Syria. They say the bombing was in response to a suspected chemical attacks in Douma. We know for a fact that there had to be multiple casualties, but oddly no one released any kind of estimate of how many casualties there were.

Something isn’t quite adding up, the Syrian government says that they have never used chemical weapons, but they could still be manufacturing them. And if so how did Trump, France and the UK know about that?

The innocent people being affected by all of this don’t deserve it and our hearts go out to them. Some day this will all come to an end and we will have peace among us. I like to think that their efforts to stop this issue will work and lead us towards a better day but only the future can tell.
