I watched that too and yet again feel a sense of great sadness and helplessness. When we think of our minor troubles in this country, a look at how another family has to live should be a very sobering thought. When children in other countries draw pictures of happy events, this is what an Aleppo child sees each day. This is a drawing by one of the children who just escaped death. No child should have to draw  such pictures.

Will those who claim the Syrian refugees don't deserve help learn anything from this article?

The little boy pulled out of the rubble whose picture was shown around the world, his 10 year old brother died from his injuries. Quite easy to understand why his parents would decide to risk their lives and become refugees and try to get to a "safe" country, nothing left for them in Aleppo.

It is so sad that humans have to never be happy unless they are at war -- all these innocent people and Kids it is heart breaking -- I have recorded this and will watch it tonight 

If one cannot help...at least try not to hinder those who do. These children did not ask to have bombs dropped on them..

“Pity preserves things that are ripe for decline, it defends things that have been disowned and condemned by life, and it gives a depressive and questionable character to life itself by keeping alive an abundance of failures of every type"

Nietzsche

I never watched it last night -- meant to but other things happened  I have it recorded so I will be watching it

War is despicable in any country. I watched a show  the other evening with Ross Kemp an Englishman who travels into war-torn areas and drug ghettos. He was in Africa and he was taken to an African Hospital which housed women and children who had been brutalised in the Rhwanda area. What those poor people had to suffer was unimaginable. Young girls 13 raped by men, some had their hands cut off and raped, when their father's refused to rape their daughters they had their eyes cut out and throats slashed. One three year old boy had been raped. These people have nowhere to go now and the hospital looks after them. I felt so hopeless when I heard their stories and there is nothing we can do. What those murderers did, animals wouldn't do to their own. Africa is swimming in riches, why don't they try and help their people?

Plan B - I'm not offended, I"m agree with you as I stated, "animals wouldn't treat their own as humans treat each other.".

I didn't watch the show but I am so sad to hear that little boy has passed away. This innocent child deserved so much better in life. Include contraception with the food parcels so that more innocent children won't suffer from adult madness.Why is their city is being  bombed to rubble, instead of sending in land troops to fight ISIS? Civilians are being murdered by ISIS they don't need it from as Abbott said, "the goodies". When governments choose to end Syrian war there will be plenty of work available to who is left to pick up the pieces. 

The photo above could very well be that of an Australian city if Muslims are continued to be allowed entry to this country.
