[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]What in god's name can we do? I watched the most traumatizing coverage from this afternoon that left me in tears - out of character for me. It's beyond horrifying, what's happening over there. I normally donate through Oxfam but are they on the ground there? Is any aid getting through?[/b] What is happening? the lack of UN embargo? There are sanctions but it seems China and Russia are undermining us? [b]I don't want to veer to political here lest this get relegated to political forum[/b][i][b] - I want to know what we can do to help those poor people [/b]living in terror. I will spare you the video I saw. [b]It took me all day to get over it, but essentially they're targeting hospitals, public places, families. It's breathtaking in its horror. As a mother, I can't stop thinking about it and wondering how I can help those innocent, suffering humans. [/quote][/b]

Really, strictly political? Just because I mentioned government actions? Next time I post a subject I care about and want a broad audience, I will be sure not to mention ANYTHING political. I posted because I wanted to know how to get help through to the people on the ground. This is not political this is a human interest thing. While there are political elements, I'm not interested so much in a political discussion on our values and getting involved, although obviously that is very relevant. More than anything else, I want to know how to help people in syria. I expressly said I didnt want to get too politial. This is a human issue. I want people to see it and discuss it and tell me how they and I can help. [/quote]
