Gaza Pullout

Compassion: concern for suffering or distress of others and response to their feelings and needs.

As I watch the news, I am often filled with compassion for people that I do not even know.  For example, this week I have watched many stories concerning the Gaza Pullout in which Jewish settlers are being removed from their homes.  The Israeli Prime Minister, Ariel Sharon, hopes removing the settlers will help foster peace between the Israelis and Palestinians.  I cannot imagine how difficult it must be for those people who are forced to leave the homes they have lived in their whole life. 

What are some other current events that cause feelings of compassion within you?

I feel really sorry that they got forced out of their own home.Some people don't really care because it is not happening to them. But just think about it, if it was happening to you you probaly would want people to care about you.That's why I really care for those people that were getting forced out of their house.I really do agree with you.
