“Let us also acknowledge that the hearts which suffer the most from our wars are those of mothers. Their vital voices have been left out of the political equation for too long. An Iraqi or American mother cries the same as an Israeli or Afghan mother. The eyes of a mother who has suffered the loss of a child can destroy the soul of anyone who gazes upon them. More souls become casualties of war than physical bodies. War is a soul-shattering experience for the innocent.” WarBodyMotherSufferingPoliticsLossDyingMotherhoodInnocentMothersEyesWarfareSoulsHeartsVoicesLoss Of A ChildCollateral DamageCasualties Of WarPhysical BodiesCasaulatiesLosing Childwar MothersLoss MothersSoul ShatteringWrongful Death Book:Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem Source: Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem
