Why is the whole world standing silent while they are being massacred in the most brutal and ugly way? Why are their lives cheaper than those on the other side of the border? Maybe because they look different. They have a darker skin and their women wear headscarves. Maybe because they are poor. Their funerals have no heart-breaking pictures of people in black weeping silently in front of elegant wooden caskets and white tombstones. Maybe because they are weak and helpless. There is nobody to defend them, not even their government nor their kin in twenty-two countries. Maybe because this happened a hundred times before. Why should anybody care this time?
