Victims Syria 2015 !!


The body of a drowned baby washes up on Turkish beach 01:00
It shows the toddler on his stomach, face down on a beach in Turkey. He looks like he's sleeping the way so many children his age do, with their bottoms raised and heads gently to the side.

The journalist who shot the photo expressed the outrage, despair and helplessness that it would go on to inspire in many people who saw it....watch the video and see more by click the link below

It's sad...
But I heard the father already had a place to stay in Turkey, with his relative. He went to Europe for free healthcare, not for survival.

If anything the father should be prosecuted for putting his son in such a precarious situation. Whatever happened to personal responsibility?

Well what ever happen to accountability among nations when it was the Western led alliance aiding the Syrian rebels and dragging out the Syrian civil war, enabling chaos, destruction and the explosion of ISIL in Syria to spiral so out of hand, and creating the mass exodus of refugees today. How's that "war against dictators and for democracy" working out?

Those European countries like Germany, France, and even the US have plenty of blame for this tragedy. So open up....

Propaganda. This wasn't a kid drowning tryouts not to flee Syria. They were already safe in Turkey. The reporter used the photo to create a story to incite public opinion. People drown all the time. Some drown trying to get to USA from Cuba, Haiti, and Latin American countries. Difference is there was no camera and zealous reporter on the scene. I know I sound callous. I'm separating my emotions from the photo.

in Indonesia I see less overly friendly & not so happy with refugees coming from countries affected by conflict, even they were expelled or forced to be repatriated to his country, this does not apply only in Indonesia but also in Malaysia and Thailand, bcause It has reason, this are not rich countries, because there are many people in this country whose lives still difficult. how could accommodate and feed them .. ? sad

I am actually quite shocked by the violence on the part of the refugees. They often fight the police and throw things at the guards.
