Saying 'I'm so sorry for your loss', is so inadequate... this is a loss that is perverse in its extremity. It is unnatural, and reveals the illegitimate nature of a world order in which such an atrocity can take place. Indeed, we see the barbarism of the West, in its full ugliness, more clearly than ever before.

I admire you for your decisions to share the photo of the children - it is so painful to see their beautiful faces and realise they are no more.

It is hard to know what to say that can be of comfort... For sure, millions of people around the world are outraged, but are their damn leaders listening?
