Inhuman

I don't get it, not at all. I am reading an article about formerly abducted boys in norhtern Uganda, in other words about child soldiers, about those who have survived and got out of captivity. But the things the have gone true are just so, so horrible, that just reading aobut it makes me cry. How can anybody, and in this case, so many, many people be so inhuman, so horrible, so mean and bad, and make young boys and girls go trough so horrible things. I just don't get it. How can you be so mean? The boys told that they had to drink their urin, or lick the leaves in the morning when they were a bit wet, since there was no water. Many died of thirst. And this is just the part of normal survival. If they did not do what they were told, or could not keep up, they were killed. And they had to kill their families and friends. So, so horrible. This world is just fucked up.
