They're saying that comparing the lives lost to population of the Dutch it's as great or greater loss than we suffered on 9/11

They just upped it to 192 Dutch passengers, among them the top AIDS researchers of the country who were on their way to Australia for a conference.


Ukraine. Gaza. Syria. Mali. Boko Haram. So much sadness and loss everywhere.
