Sorry but tragedy falls in the field of literature and drama, not moral philosophy, law or ethics.

It’s the quality of an event or chain of events defined by its result, impact and effect, independent of motive or responsibility. 1/

For example, if the child had been struck by a car while crossing the street at a crosswalk? Or jaywalking?

Or shot along with mother and siblings by an estranged father?

Moments before takeoff on #FlightPS752: Sahar Haghjoo and her daughter Elsa Jadidi in their seats ready to fly home to Toronto. @globalnewsto #UkrainianPlaneCrash
As it turns out Sahar Haghjoo’s name and face were familiar to me because I interviewed her on @globalnewsto in 2018. She was warm, kind and spoke eloquently. I remember her well. #UkrainianPlaneCrash #FlightPS752
To say that I’m heartbroken for her family would be an understatement. This is Sahar and her daughter Elsa last week on a train in Iran. May they Rest In Peace. #IranPlaneCrash #UkrainianPlaneCrash #FlightPS752 @globalnewsto
