A good question. I admit I am at a loss. We SHOULD do something. But what?

Sometimes you face horror and your mind cannot accept that there are no solutions. I nearly lost my youngest son many years ago. For a while he appeared dead. For the couple of minutes I remember best how my brain franatically searched for some solution to a puzzle that will make him not dead.

He and I was lucky and he lived and he is a healthy boy today. But that kind of hautning experience is something I can imagine very many people go through in Ukraine. They are desperately looking for solutions that don't exist, and they cannot make their brains stop searching for that solution which does not exist. They just go in an endless loop.

Many of those who survive this war will never be the same again. I know I have never been the same since my experience.

I am not sure if humanitarian relief is possible at Mariupol. The Red Army seems to deliberately target civilians. I do not have high thought about their behavior. It seems highly plausible that they would attack a humanitarian convoy.

Afterwards they would blame Ukraine for staging it. They know many would believe them because it is impossible for us to imagine that the Russian army can be this heartless and brutal. Yet so much of what I read seems to suggest that they are indeed like that.

I almost hope some of the brutal stories I read are some kind of propaganda, because knowing the Russian army is like it has been portrayed undermines my faith in humanity itself.
