Tribute video to all who have died and survived chemical terrorism attacks

               

This video includes images and photos I collected from Google images of the September 15,1963 Birmingham, Alabama church bombing victim,the April 15,2013 Boston Massachusetts Boston Marathon bombing, and the August 21,2013 Ghouta chemical attacks that occurred in Ghouta,Syria.

I think all acts of terrorism or hateful. These acts of ignorance never solves our political, cultural or religious conflicts. The end results of these types of terrorist attacks loss of innocent life and grieving families.

Why are children being killed in Syria's civil war?

For more than two years Syria’s children have endured 

appalling suffering. 

According to UNHCR 1,631,981 people have now fled Syria. 

More than 1 million of them fled in 2013 alone. 

In the 162 days that passed since 1 January an average of

close to 6,500 people fled every single day.

Children make up 51.5% of the refugee population, meaning 

there are an estimated 840,000 refugee children in the region.

Save the Children has worked in the Middle East for decades. 

In July 2012 we launched an ambitious emergency appeal to

respond to the growing refugee crisis in the region and are now 

aiming to raise 161,000,000 USD for our humanitarian interventions

in Jordan, Lebanon, Iraq and Syria, aiming to reach at least 

1,255,000 people.

See Save the Children's Syria Crisis Regional dasboard with key facts,urgent needs and details of Save the Children's response by country and sector.

Last time I read about the Syrian civil war that is currently being fought between forces loyal to the Ba'ath government and those seeking to oust it, I didn't see any mentioning of children taking on the role of soldiers or rebels in the two-year long civil war.

However there are more than 11,000 children who have been died in a war being fought by uncivilized grown-ups.One hundred twenty-eight  of the children who were killed died of chemical weapons, according to a British group.

According to The Oxford Research Group study "764 children were summarily executed and 389 killed by sniper fire."

The Oxford Research Group study report is terribly disturbing.Even though no children initiated the Syrian conflict or apart of the arm forces participating in the armed conflict they are being targeted viciously.

The children living in the Syrian war zones have to live in constant fear and wonder if they will die in a conflict they do not even understand.

I don't know why children are being killed in the war or even being perceived as enemies.
I do know that any person willing to kill an innocent child is a person who should  be captured and put
a way in a underworld that I call HELL!

Why is it such a difficult task to get rid of chemical weapons?

After reading a Reuters article about the current dilemma the Organisation for the  Prohibition of Chemical Weapons is having in finding a place to destroy Syria's chemical weapons I became frustrated.

It appears that it's easier to kill hundreds of children with these evil poisons rather than to simply find some place to contain the evil devils and destroy them.

According to Reuters, some sources say that Syria's chemical weapons could be destroyed at sea.
However the OPCW stressed that there has been no decision made to destroy the chemical weapons at sea.

However the OPCW did say that destroying chemical weapons at sea was " technically feasible."
Even though technically Syria's chemical weapons could be destroyed at sea Ralf Trapp, an independent chemical disarmament specialist, said "Syria's stockpile would require more complex treatment than the World War Two bombs that Japan found on the seabed, raised and destroyed off the port of Kanda from 2004-06."

Trapp also said that burning them in a process known as hydrolysis would also be a potentially dangerous process due to the environmental pollution problems the burning process could create.


After reading the "Exclusive:Syria's chemical weapons may be destroyed at sea," I realized something.
And that something is that it is easier to do evil than good.People can easily kill others and terrorize our the world.

However finding ways to prevent such terrifying atrocities such as the killing of children with chemical poisons is our societies most difficult task.

I want to keep believing and having faith in knowing that some how some way good will prevail over evil and this world will be a better place.
