Syria- my heart bleeds for you

It has been over four years that I have been reading and writing about the human rights violations in Syria. Reading and sharing about the plight of children of Syria. Torture, rapes, destruction of homes, death, every single heinous crime is being committed on the soil of Syria by the most wicked of men. People fleeing their homes to escape oppression is enough heartbreaking. The tragedy is when they don't have anyone to take them. Struggling on small boats to escape oppression, many have lost their lives. Those who reached safely are refugees. The heart breaking picture of the body of little boy that was washed on the beach two days back has become the symbol of the oppression that these innocent lives are facing. He is one of the millions who were the future, the future that is now turned into dust. All they need is our prayers and our help. The help from the authorities to give them asylum. They need us, the children of Syria need us. They are not in war that they entered themselves, they are oppressed by a wicked regime. They need a better world, they need someone to fulfil the promise of love that their parents made when they were conceived. Peace is what they want. Justice is what they need.
