You never need to apologize for:
•Condemning killing of civilians
•Condemning killing of civilians as a response to killing civilians
•Condemning war crimes no matter the perpetrator
•Needing time & space to center yourself before speaking

This is how we build sustainable peace & justice for all people.

@QasimRashid thbak you for this reminder. I literally feel my blood pressure rise and need to learn to respond, rather than react. It's a learning curve for sure.
