  4. Amir: this is just another symptom of the much deeper issues causing this war to drag on

  6. Null Reaper: What's really shocking is how quickly the violence escalates whenever there's a new agreement on talks
  7. Lunar Nova: can't believe we're still seeing kids caught in the crossfire, not a new war, another war with kids
  8. Jonas: looks like nobody mentioned the actual reason behind this new fighting - do we know yet?

  17. Nora: this is a sick way to be advertising a war effort

  19. Neon Jackal: it's like deja vu all over again. how do they keep doing this to those kids?
