Those were almost exact same words I said to my colleague yesterday, as we carpooled to work together. I said: "Twenty years ago we swore there would never be another Srebrenica. Now we are witnessing it again. Humanity never learns".

I'm working with refugees of war (mostly from Syria) every day. They come from Damascus, Aleppo and Homs. Some still have relatives trapped there. My heart goes out to them. But, beyond helping them here in Sweden and donating money to the Red Cross and signing petitions on Avaaz, I feel like there's little I can do in person to help. Just sit and cry over the lost faith in humanity…
