HUMAN first, then a proud IRANIAN: That's how a toy gun becomes a real gun

HUMAN first, then a proud IRANIAN

This blog represents the way I see some of the most significant events impacting the world and its citizens. This blog also represents how I react to the events as a member of humanity with a voice, a determined voice that insists to be heard. The voice of an Iranian who loves his country but his priority is humanity; humanity without border. I will say what I want to say, when I want to say it, and how I want to say it, but I will never lie. I will also listen; I promise.

Similar cases are happening every day in the occupied territories. After this murdering of a young boy, is it very surprising if his brother or sister decides to use a real gun instead of a toy?
