This crisis is still ongoing. There is nothing to forget and its certainly too early to forgive. When a humanitarian crisis is in full swing, as it is now, its important that we understand how that crisis came about because understanding may touch us with a tiny ounce of compassion and whilst we have compassion, we will strive to find solutions.
I don't know what the answer is, all I know is, they are a displaced people, they are my fellow human beings and I hope and wish they find peace and comfort for themselves and their families.
