شرح للأطفال
Imagine you and your friends are playing a game, and suddenly a mean team starts to bother you. You decide to ask your friend, who is really good at the game but lives in another neighborhood, to come help. That's kind of like what happened here, but with a much bigger game and a much bigger problem.
