what can you even say to this www.thenation.com/article/worl...

“We’re moody all the time,” Sundus says. “One minute angry, the next crying, the next trying to act normal for the kids. Some days, I feel like I want to die. Some days I just hold my children and hope the next bomb misses us.” She says she sometimes wishes she could hide her children inside her eyes and keep them there, safe, where nothing could ever touch them. There is nothing poetic about that image when it comes from a place like Gaza. It’s the logic of war. “You start wishing your children were part of your body again, back inside the womb, or behind your ribs, or in your eyes, just so you can shield them from a world that wants to break them,” Sundus says.
