FINGER POINTING
The news have been proclaiming the triumphant sentencing of Saddam.
Death by hanging.
Yes, the ruler of a country, whose human rights have been curtailed
even though it brought the nation and it's surroundings relative peace.
The price of peace with an iron fist?
And yes, the ruler of the country, whose borders were invaded, civilians murdered, children left orphans and starving, on the pretext of an impending nuclear holocaust.
Are nuclear weapons be invisible?
And yes, the same man, is the father whose son died trying to protect him.
While the other perpetrators stand aside and mollycoddle the real demon(s) involved.
Who is the real terror after all?
Therefore, the moral of the story is clear :
Never piss someone (or a collective group of people) that has/have/will have greater power then you.
My 2 cents worth -
I'm not on anyone's side. I just feel that this whole situation has been handled very badly. And while his mighty bushiness continues to play golf or frolick with his dogs in the mono-coloured house, there are people he has shipped off to war that WANT to return home.
As much as the people in iraq want to rebuild their lives without the annoying double-faced drama kings and queens, who are simply eyeing the profits brought about by the sale of oil.
It's freaking time to call it an end. Stop all the blame shifting, finger pointing and look into the real issues.
A country needs direction.
A people that require strength.
Leaders (more the one) that need to be brought to justice.
And a World that needs more gonads to withstand pressure.
Let this madness stop.
My prayers are with every single one of you that keeps the hope alive.
Let your conscience sing the praise for freedom
Let your heart feel the suffering
Let your eyes envision a better tomorrow
And let your hands defy the odds
LIVE ONCE. LIVE WELL. LIVE STRONG.
