Just assume you are in your home; suddenly, due to the violence
and hatred instilled in people based on the worldly greed of power,
conflicts arise within the community that lead to mass murder and a

massacre of the innocent. In fact, this is what we see in many parts of
the world, particularly in Syria, Iraq, Myanmar, Sudan, Libya and else-
where. This ruthlessness aims at destroying people by targeting inno-
cent women, men and children.

So, when that persecution comes at your door, the only solution
is flight from that insecurity to save your lives. You would take who-
ever could come with you having hopes for finding a secure shelter
for your loved ones. Yes, in those circumstances, you would become
a refugee or an internally displaced person, and this would not be an
arbitrary decision, but the only way out of a dire situation that would
only bring death and misery.
