More than 140,040 people have died In Syria.8.000 children
make part of the 140,040.
How do you deal with a conflict that started before you
could understand what surrounds you. Over more than two years the Syrian people
have gone through a civil war, which in a way has become the “playground” for
millions of children. At times this children get involved in the cross fire,
are used as human shields. Kidnapping, torture and killings are usual in their
surroundings. The lucky ones have the ability to run away with their families
and end up being refugees.
International organizations have been creating funds to
provide aid specifically for the children’s needs. Education has become
something not as important as surviving.

This is more than a strong reason to stop this conflict. Innocent people, mothers about to give birth, naive eyes, children who skip their stage of childhood. "..are used as human shields." This sensorial image that you include is very powerful. There are no words that may describe, the brutality of this act. Taking innocent dreams, an innocent heart, and exposing it to bullets has no justification. This conflict has no identity.
