Here is a line from on of my favorite bloggers, Steven Den Beste, who has not covered news for the last year. But he is a great thinker and makes a statement that has to be thought of at this time.
This nation has never had to abandon a major city to resettle its entire population somewhere else. I hope this doesn’t turn out to be the first time, but it may end up that way.
If this does not sober one up as to the depth of this tragedy, then nothing will.
