Typical. They spend a decade blowing everything up and then act surprised when folk can't just 'get over it' once the bombs stop. Who's actually paying for the help though? Probably just a few handouts and a pat on the head while the people at the top get rich off the rebuilding. Sad state of affairs.

It’s heartbreaking to see how the scars of war linger long after the fighting stops. As a parent, I can't even imagine trying to rebuild a home while dealing with that level of trauma. Does anyone know if there are affordable global funds helping these families access mental healthcare, or is it mostly relying on charities? The cost of recovery must be overwhelming.
