Canada, Sweden and several western European countries are learning the folly of mass immigration and are sharply cutting back the numbers in response

Can you imagine how callous and evil you have to be to destroy an 8 story residential building in the centre of a city, without any warning? Think of the innocent people who die in their homes who have absolutely nothing to do with this conflict whatsoever, and are now chalked up as 'Collateral damage'.

Well the Hezbollah types are all hiding inside and below the residential buildings, and this Collateral damage is what they want, as this will ensure the constant supply of gullible recruits, these will never know what is really happening.
