At Iranian school devastated by airstrike, grieving families say they will never forget - PBS NewsHour

The U.S. and Israel's air war with Iran has killed thousands since its launch, but few attacks left a deeper mark than the strike on a school in Minab. More than 150 died, most of them schoolchildren, and there is little dispute that the missiles were American-made.

Older locals in Vietnam still recall the damage done by the American invaders during the Vietnam war, and older Europeans still hate Germany for WW2.

America came to the rescue of Europe during WW2 and declared themselves the Good Guys.
But that title wore out a long time ago.

Iran and the rest of the Middle East will long remember the current actions of both America and Israel.

Are you offended when Iranians shout 'Death to America'?
I can understand both why they shout that, and why you may be offended.

The Russian people were obsessed with keeping the peace after the horrific time that they had during WWII fought on their own land. We visited with numerous other peace groups, there were statues and plaques everywhere remembering those who were lost and calling for peace. They even had museums everywhere, including in the schools, so that the children would learn and not forget. I wonder what happened to all those remembrances now.
