I'm confused
Attack on London
Quite often, the titles I give on my posts are sarcastic to the extreme but this one is sincere, I really am confused. I know I'm going to take some heat but I just don't feel anything about this. Maybe the events in my personal life have overshadowed anything I can feel about someone 5000 miles away but I don't think that's it. I think it's that I hear the exact same thing every day out of Iraq, that someone blew up 20 people in a crowded market or 8 soldiers died in a car side bomb. Is it different because it happened in downtown London instead of downtown Baghdad? Should we care about someone who speaks English more than we should care about someone who speaks Arabic?
I really am confused.
