Such raw human suffering of unthinkable magnitude. Heart wrenching.

Some things there are no answers for in this world.

Annoys me they need to declare it the disaster of the century.

Not 20 years ago 200,000+ died from a tsunami.

Journalism is annoying.

It just speaks to the magnitude.
Only on DDF does 24/6 mean 24/5/half/half

And 300,000+ in the Haiti earthquake.

Not to minimize what is happening now- unfortunately earthquakes do have the highest death toll of all natural disasters.

Seems to be off to me.

Exactly, my problem is a headline like that sounds like it is the worst disaster in the past 100 years or at least from 2000 and it's simply fake news and why does a tragedy like this need to be exaggerated.

There are estimates of about 180,000 under the rubble.

Horrible robbery gone wrong.
Hashem Yerachem.
 :'(

Such a terrible tragedy on so many levels. I know the kallah's family a little, and they've been through tragedy in the past. Five years ago to the month they lost a son to Yehner Machlah r"l. The parents are some of the biggest tzaddikim you will ever meet, such role models.
