Annie Lennox Instagram – Dear Friends, Violence comes in many forms in this world. Even as a small child I understood that there was something aberrant in its expression. Hurting a creature – hurting a human being is anathema to me. Like the flame from a match can ignite a blazing fire… Once it starts it can spread quickly and is more and more impossible to extinguish. And the more it spreads the worse it gets. I knew after Oct 7th that there would be a tipping point. I knew there would be a terrible retribution. 7 months on and the scale of destruction beggars belief. World leaders have a LOT to answer for. I’m ashamed of this despicable violent world.
