32 families

Thirty nine locals were bringing us food. The T stopped them. Thirty two were killed execution style. The seven that survived played dead, even hid under the other bodies. We took care of five of the seven that survived. This emotion I feel.. its a an emotion I've not felt before, a depth I rarely reach... ANGER, sadness, shock. How could a human being point a gun an shoot THIRTY TWO people, your own people? Absolutely abominable. If someone complains that we don't have bread, I might lose it.

Such a shocking day hardly left room for the excitement of personally meeting the Secretary of Defense of Denmark.

  1. I hardly know what to say. Such bravery, goodness, and evil on so many levels.
    You are a blessing to those you touch.

  2. Faith, particularly the blind belief in an afterlife filled with virgins, is what propels men to sacrifice morality for dogma. It is when they sacrificially commit to believing something for which there is no physical evidence, that they lose their way.
