So sad and outrageous to read this. I just hate people who provoke and maintain wars of all kind. I was in Palermo in 1977.

As some other war-mongers say as I type "the casualties of war". Thus it will be ever so - unfortunately. We here in England also had (and still have) many such bombed out ruins by the Germans in WWII.

HWW, enjoy the day. Herb

Il tempo sembra essersi fermato a quei giorni tremendi; anche la mia città in quell'anno fu semidistrutta dalle bombe ma poi è stata tutta ricostruita.
