A long way gone #Benin home is where ishmael keeps hearing the," this isn't your fault" remark from various staffers and professions does he accept thi mantra? why?

Initially Beah does not accept what they have to say. Beah resents them for bringing him to the safe house camp. He wants to be with his fellow child soldiers. Beah, at this point, is still indoctrinated within the world of war. When the boys destroy things, they are not held responsible. They are told,” this isn't your fault". Beah and the others do not understand this empathy: they find it weak and unnerving.
