You wake up in the morning and this is what you see
And you get all depressed, because well, the shit is depressing. Then you remember (obviously, it's an afterthought) that you're not even fucking IN Iraq, or even close to ANY situation like this, but rather you're depressed because you have to see it when you turn on your high-speed internet in your overpriced apartment in the country that is actually responsible for making this boy a war-wounded orphan.



"BILAL HUSSEIN/The Associated Press - A boy recovers in a Fallujah, Iraq, hospital after a U.S. airstrike on Saturday in Fallujah, which killed his father and wounded his brother, said hospital officials. U.S. jets pounded Fallujah early Saturday in the heaviest airstrikes in six months, including five 500-pound bombs dropped on insurgent targets."
