Children of War

Three year-old Sarah may be too young to understand what's really going on in Lebanon and Israel. But along with other Muslim children of Maharlika Village in Taguig City, they see on television gruesome images of other children caught in the middle of the crossfire in the Middle East. Sarah was with her mother and other Muslims in a rally in front of the Israeli embassy in Makati. They condemned the Israeli attacks in Lebanon and the increasing number of children, women, and other civilians dying there. But then maybe it is also fair to say that in Israel, innocent civilians become victims too, of Lebanese Hezbollah attacks.
