> Next time this happens I won't waste my empathy.

Are you actually humanly capable of watching 3000 non-combatants die suddenly without feeling any empathy? Think about what you're saying - about your own humanity.

Non-combatants, whether they are Iraqi, Afghani, American or any nationality, should not be targeted by military forces. I hope this is something most people can agree on!

Whether it is a wedding the US drops bombs on to target one person, or a suicide attack like 9/11, it's wrong when any side does it.

Don't let the politicians win. They try to divide us into groups, and then make us hate each other. Even though we've never met. The reality is we are all human beings who deserve peaceful lives, but those at the top play their power games and we all suffer because of it.

The real divide is normal people vs the powerful, not country-vs-country.

Don't fall into their hands and give up your humanity out of spite.
