I came across this horrific article about a Syrian family whose home was hit in an air strike, and you see the father anguishing over his two trapped children. But, why isn't he going to them? 


https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/harrowing-photo-shows-syrian-girl-s-attempt-save-infant-sister-n1034891?cid=sm_npd_nn_fb_ma&fbclid=IwAR3euTepjP_Z1bbABp_5e1uh9r7ngZL5Y5U3syZYW5RGNBSdkIeLT7mW1kg

I don't see him as being in motion. To me, it looks like his weight is stationary, like he is just perched there. 
It says that he is "scrambling over the rubble," but, is he? How could he be scrambling if his hand is pressed to his forehead? That's energy going the opposite direction. Plus, he'd be using his hands to facilitate his descent. He'd be holding on to things to brace himself; to stabilize; to find support. And I mean with both hands. Absolutely both hands. You use both hands to guide yourself down a treacherous, brittle, uneven slope like that. And you wouldn't waste time slapping your hand to your head. 

The article states that the family was on the 5th floor of the building, and they all fell to the 2nd floor. I quote:

"The family was on the fifth floor of the building but had fallen to the second floor after the airstrike." 

So, they all fell 3 stories? And he wasn't hurt at all? How is that possible? 

Now, let's take a look at the children.


So, above it is a 5 year old girl, and she is holding on to the t-shirt of her 7 month old sister? So, they fell 3 stories and wound up that close? And she's holding on to her t-shirt? But,  you know that fabric stretches- a lot. And, do you realize how hard it would be to hold on to the t-shirt, how easily it could slip out of your hand? Especially if you're 5 years old? 

And why is the 5 year old not looking at her sister? It seems like she would have her eyes on her. How could she grab the t-shirt without looking at her? So if she was looking at her to do that, why would she stop looking at her? And notice that she looks like a manikin. Look how dry her hair is. A doll's hair is dry because it doesn't have sebaceous glands to keep it oiled. And you have to admit that it does look like it could be a wig, and a lousy one at that. Does it look like the hair of a 5 year old girl to you? 

And how come she isn't wearing any clothes? Do you see anything but skin? Because I don't. And what's going on with her eyes?


And what is that big bulge in her arm? It isn't anatomical. It shouldn't be there. A 5 year old with an arm shaped like that? 

The article states that the two girls fell to the ground shortly after the photo was taken. "The girls fell to the ground along with debris from the building shortly after the photo was taken." 
The 5 year old died, but the 7 month old is in intensive care. "Riham  (the 5 year old) and her mother Naqouh died of their wounds shortly after the photo was taken, the report said, while Tuka (the 7 month old) and another sibling are in intensive care."

So, a 7 month old fell a total of 5 stories to the ground and lived? A 7 month old? 

Then, there's this:

Idlib, in northwest Syria, is the last pocket of resistance to Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad after eight years of civil war, and has come under renewed bombardment by RUSSIAN AND SYRIAN warplanes in recent months, rights groups say.

Oh, so they are blaming this on Assad and Putin, like the chemical weapon attacks. I see. So, I did a little fishing.


‘No sorties in the area’: Moscow says reports on deadly Idlib airstrike are ‘fake’

‘No sorties in the area’: Moscow says reports on deadly Idlib airstrike are ‘fake’
No Russian jet has flown a combat sortie over the Idlib district in Syria, Moscow has said. The defense ministry was responding to allegations by “UK- and US-funded White Helmets” that civilians were killed in a Russian airstrike.
The alleged attack targeted the town of Maaret al-Numan, it’s been claimed. Dubbing the information “fake,” the ministry said “the Russian Air Force hadn’t carried out any missions in this part of Syria.”

I must finish by saying that I am not making any definitive claims here. I'm telling you what it looks like to me. When I first saw this, I felt aghast. But, when I looked at it more closely, starting with his hand slapped to his head, which seemed so inappropriate, that's what caused me to start searching for answers. Again, I am not making any definitive statements except that I hope that what the Russians are saying is true, that this did not really happen to those two little girls. I hope, I hope, I hope, I hope, I hope, so help me God, I hope.
