First about predictions: you don't have to know the future, if you knew, you could not prepare for it. You have to focus on the work of now. Not on some future or past.
Then about innocent people: What do you know about these people? Maybe they're all fine right now? Maybe they are heroes? And the child who lost a father, or a mother? Don't you think he can be proud that he's mother or father died in such a historic way? Of course lacking one parent is always cause for jerk, but if that's the only cause, they might be happier than you. The ways of God are not to be seized. (blurly translated from french)
