I’m confused about what’s happening in the world

what’s happening with this war?
should we be worried in Australia? 

 

 

and I’m angry, heartbroken disappointed about Saturday (don’t want to talk about it right now too uncomfortable and emotional) and spent so much time and mental enegery thinking about that I needed read about the above or pay much attention to it


what’s happening 

Is everyone ok 

I’m really lost and confused over this, people say don’t worry but I’m worried 

who are the “bad people” in this like what side is doing the terrorism

they are closely linked to Australia aren’t they should we be worried about that

Hey @ArraDreaming 

 

Just want to say I hear you. I know you don't want to talk about Saturday. I understand (as much as I can). I'm white, I feel so much sadness for First Nations people but that is nothing compared to what you must be feeling. I'm so so sorry you were again let down. I knew the result may be this but I was still hopeful it would be YES. I won't say more. I know you need time to feel what you feel. 

 

About the war. Yep I hear you. It's awful. The history between those countries is long and so much pain and conflict. I am 53 so have seen a few wars around the world. I always worry even though we are relatively safe. It's okay to worry. It's ok.

 

BUT how is your little baby?! I hope you are finding some joy in your beautiful family right now.

About America @ArraDreaming , they always are allies to Israel. There are a few youtube videos to have a look at if you search 'Israel Palestine Conflict'. I need the really easy explainers because it's so confusing. The videos might help understand a little better.

I thought Palestine was in Italy @hanami
I’m so CONFUSED

@hanami
Trying to soak up all the time with my little family right now. They are growing so fast, little miss is already over 2 months old…
lots of smilies and she’s starting to wake up the world a little more now very alert and less newborn sleepy mode lol
My little lady bug 🐞
And the two big kids are absolutely frothing being big brothers its real nice

Trying to connect with nature and country during this time as much as I can, take them out and see the world @hanami

Re: I’m confused about what’s happening in the world

@ArraDreaming It's so confusing! It involves Jewish history, Hamas (the terrorist group from Palestine) and the middle eastern countries. I studied history but still find it hard to get my head around. 

Re: I’m confused about what’s happening in the world

@ArraDreaming OMG adorable! Little ladybug ... my heart!

I'm so glad you have your beautiful family. They are everything. My oldest son is staying with us right now before he heads to Japan for their ski season. He works there. I can't believe he is 26. He was a baby two minutes ago.
