Oklahoma & Middle East

Let me start with this: The tornado in Oklahoma was absolutely devastating. I am not downplaying the absolute tragedy of people who have lost their loved ones due to the tornado. But another thought I had was this; 95 people were killed today in Iraq. It is somewhat comforting to know that the tornado was caused by nature, and not by hate.

  1. Yeah, I've been following the whole Iraq thing in the news on BBC Arabic. It's horrible. It makes me sad to see what's happening.

    Oklahoma tornado was bad, yes, but after it they can properly mourn, rebuild, and move forward in peace.

    Can't say that about Iraq.
