[NSFW] Images from Syria

[xxMATTGxx]

WARNING

These images are NOT SAFE FOR WORK - BLOOD/GORE ARE IN THESE IMAGES. YOU CLICK AT YOUR OWN RISK.

I didn't really want to post this in currant affairs as I don't really want to make it all "Politics" and blah blah. But thought I would share these images. These images are from Syria according to the website and so on. They are quite shocking/disturbing and also quite sick.

Final Warning:

These images are not suitable for work - They do contain a lot of blood/gore and death.

I can't even bring myself to click the spoiler as I know it will be something that will make my heart sink and I won't forget it

But by the way you've described it, it makes me sad that we still have this going on in our world

the picture with the mother holding her toddler... :cry:

why are you allowed to post links like that but if a normal forum member did it they'd get an infraction and a pm telling them how sick they are for posting links to such gory images on a forum which is used by young teenagers

The reason spoilers are there is to give you an option to view it or not, ultimately it is your decision if you decide to open the spoiler.

forced myself to click the link and I urge everyone else to do so. Sometimes you need to step outside your comfort zone, although you might think you know sufficient information about something, the truth of it will never hit home until you allow yourself to understand.

I'm off to educate myself far more about Syria and for a cry.

When I read it originally, I thought the same thing but I remember seeing something similar a few months ago and it made me feel so sick. I can't face seeing something else but I understand where you're coming from. You need to view it so you know the full extent of what is going on in the world and let reality hit that your problems are nothing compared to people's lives out there.

I always make sure I see images of conflicts, it brings home what a war is and what it means - really adds a better perspective to the reality of war rather than simply sitting behind a computer screen and advocating, as so many do, that we send British men and women to these places - that's why I always ask myself would I be prepared to go and die in such a conflict to determine whether or not I truly believe we should be there.

Good find anyway, much better quality than usual.

perfectly illustrate the civil war. hope something will be done to stop this bloodshed and bring this war to an end.

Ok I can't bring myself to look at the images, as I know I'll regret doing so.

I don't really understand what is going on is Syria so I can't comment much, but I promise to educate myself on it c:
There's no need to shed blood. Yes, there may be a reason for it*, but bloodshed isn't always the answer.

*I think?

Actually looked at them all, oh my. The ones showing people helping others out really hurt, and yeah I cried a little. Think it's pretty good to take a look at them and allow yourself to know more about what's going on.
