When I read that post which said the 100 hostages which were taken in Paris got killed, I was so shocked cause it reminded me of the 1800 young men that were taken and killed in Spyker in Iraq (my country) only few countable ones got to escape and the rest were killed one by one by the river side, they said even the water turned red…
And if you have noticed, we are Muslim too and look at the numbers of us got killed in the past few years…
This is not about religion, I saw some freaks saying that we care about islamphobia more than the people being killed in Paris, but no, we care as much and more cause we know this feeling, we feel it daily, it literally became a part of our lives, not just my country, all the arabic world.
You are terrified and alarmed and I, no, we. don’t blame you, we are talking about lives being taken in high numbers.
For me, I’m 18, and from the very first memory I have til now, all were currupted by terrorism and wars.
I remember when I was 7 years old and heard a few really close bombings, I was shaking, I cried a lot, I even ran from the rooftop with no slippers cause I was so scared. I even used to sit in the garden of my home and hear the bullets cut through the air. This is a small example of what I have experienced and it doesn’t even come close to other people.
We are muslims, but we went through worse than this, I saw dead people in front of me, I have lost people too so I fuckin’ understand what you all feeling so don’t go and say just because I’m Muslim means I don’t care for Paris and the innocent people getting killed.
I’m human and I do have humanity in me.
