but looking at this beautiful family that were killed for what??? for the stupid ass we have in the WH. Now he is spreading his disease around the world. He has hurt so many people, we have children in cages, he wanted to send sick children who needed medical care away. Stephen Miller needs to be focused on too. You notice they just resign but don't go to prison.

Mulvaney says get over it????? WTF. These are evil and vile jerks/monsters. They shut down our government which hurt so many people the list goes on and on.

is one of those terrible eras that we've only read about. Apocryphal fiction-like reality that is hard to understand and even harder to fight against.

I really don't know how to combat this. It seems beyond me.

This Kurdish journalist and his family were assassinated in Sulaymaniyah which is a city in IRAQ (not Syria). Sulaymaniyah is in East Central Iraq, fairly close to the IRANIAN border. The "ERBIL" reference is to another city in IRAQ.

Nothing appears to tie this (at least at this time) in any way to what is currently happening in Syria.

along with his parents.

Yes, I would like to find out more.

And I cannot believe that you think that this is not "currently happening in Syria."

Good grief.
