The Collateral Damage of War

Attached is an article that I ran across while browsing cnn.com. It is about how schools reopened in Gaza after a cease-fire was established between Israeli forces and Hamas rulers. Now I am not mentioning this to open a battle about who is right and wrong in the violence overseas.

I am just saddened that the education of thousands of children is hindered because of the violence of the adults around them. It speaks volumes about what our world has become and where priorities lie. And if this is what is being taught through everyday life it makes one doubt whether things will be able to change for the next generation.
