Before this day is over I just want to share this which was posted on my FB page - it was sent to a friend:
Last night was a night from hell in besieged Ghouta with massacres unfolding and the skies lit up by the shower of weaponry landing on civilians
Doctors treated people injured by Napalm, barrel bombs, and missile strikes, as well as a chlorine gas chemical attack. The White Helmets struggled to reach people injured or trapped in the rubble because the destruction and craters from airstrikes were making it hard to move. Dozens were killed and even more were injured.
This International Women’s Day, our sisters in Ghouta, along with hundreds of thousands of civilians besieged inside, are at the mercy of the depravity of the Syrian regime and Russia
Today and throughout the past weeks, women from Ghouta have been reporting from the ground – writings that should go straight into the history books.
Nivin Hotary, an activist from Ghouta, wrote this morning:
This could be my last post. The catastrophic situation is now well-known to all... we have said all we could say.
A criminal regime that kills its own people with the approval and support and sponsorship of other countries.
Yesterday was an indescribable day. Chlorine and cluster bombs, barrel bombs, and rocket shells. They tried everything to bury us alive in the basements.
No words left for us to say and no conscience or humanity left in those remaining silent and allowing this to happen.
The last thing I want to say to all people everywhere: our regime is murderous and won’t escape justice.
But your governments are more murderous than the regime. They are watching and remaining quiet, acquiescing.
And those who accuse us of being terrorists, Islamists and more to relieve their conscience...
The Syrian regime might kill us all – how would you ever make peace with that?
I salute all women of the world on International Women’s Day, and I extend my condolences to our women for such a shameful world.

Day 18 in the basements
#Ghouta
To stand in solidarity with our sisters right now in Ghouta –
To go through chemo therapy or choose not to?
The majority of Israeli Jews do not want to occupy Gaza.
Have any of you got all electric cars? Pros and cons please.
