another city wounded

Amman joins the list.

Blood

and blood

and blood

in your homeland

In my name and in yours, in the almond blossom, in the banana skin, in the baby’s milk, in the light and in the shade, in the grain of wheat, in the salt jar. Consummate snipers reach their targets.

-Mahmoud Darwish

UPDATE: and Baghdad, battered again. Wedding parties and restaurants at breakfast hours: what can one say about people who would do this?
