.@AlboMP .@SenatorWong I had a look at your socials to see if you made a comment about the beheading of babies, the 60 bombs dropped in 24 hours & burning Palestinians alive. No, neither of you said a word. May this haunt you forever, you will be answerable to history.

Oh thank you!
@CherylAkle Hello Cheryl, I just heard your interview with Zoula Katouh -I've just started reading her book. I usually stay away from novels about Syria. H'ever I felt Mohsin Hamid was describing Aleppo in #ExitWest. It's extraordinarily beautiful.
