And yet another reason for War


The recent Paris events prompted me to write this:

Yet another reason for War

The atrocity and fear we live by
Our leaders want to decry
Yet our acts tend to multiply
Yet another reason for war.

Armed to bomb and kill
Rhetoric sounds fine and shrill
Deep we want to kill and will
Find yet another reason for war.

I cannot fathom the commonplace
Brutes that battle for time and space
Engaging our hearts to retrace
Yet another reason for war.

Religions that demand our obeisance
Consign us to acts of disgrace and hence
Rend our bodies to their savior
Demanding yet another reason for war.

Shall I find Peace through death?
Asks a mutilated ’s last breath.
When finally enough are dead
When mourning displaces anger
When the war machine becomes surfeit
When the hunger for death has long been fed
When we realize again peace can no longer wait
It shall never be too late
To demand the end
To yet another reason for war.

- or more simply,

WAR! What is it good for?
Absolutely nothin’!
Come on y’all. (Edwin Starr)

War is NOT good, but it is necessary that "Good people fight and win over bad ISIL". No other choice, we can't reason with them.

May "Good people" prevail.




Honesty is the best policy.

Do NOT underestimate how brutal of ISIL. French President was watching football games (in USA called soccer) among French people. He didn't know the terrible things was just began. We did NOT know on Sept 11, 2001 morning we were attacked by hijacking our 4 airplanes flew into our WTC and Pentagon and kill our 3,000 people. We shouldn't forget.

ISIL train very young boys since they are 10 y/o to execute two adults from their back heads. They train very young people using very cruel videos repeatedly to brainwash recruiters.

Another shooting in Mali Radisson hotel just happened. We NEVER know where and when this type of killing will happen again. Do NOT underestimate our enemy. They are trained to be killing machine. They have been brainwashed that if they kill our people, their god will send them to heaven and having fun with 72 virgin girls. Who want 72 women anyway??? Stupid ISIL.

This is different kind of war than Korean war or Vietnam war.
