What's even sicker is the landmines that are
designed to look like children's toys, and are not intended to kill, but to maim and disfigure the children. After all, it is a much greater victory in killing a nations spirit to maim and disfigure their children so that they live our their days in visible pain and suffering rather than to merely KILL them.
No living creature deserves this kind of bullshit... child, animal, nobody.
