I don't know what to feel. Can Obama just fly down to Angers, so he can give me a hug, and tell me it's all gonna be okay and we'll leave the middle east soon? no??
"war can't drive out war"
but what happens when diplomatic peaceful efforts to stop oppressive murderous dictators don't either?
it reminds me of a paper i wrote in high school, called Love is a Force that Gives Us Meaning, brought about by a book by journalist, Chris Hedges, titled, War is a Force that Gives Us Meaning, about our addiction to war, our ignorance of peaceful means, but again this question of is war sometimes...necessary?
I can't help but feel sick about it though.
I don't quite understand the pictures I'm finding in the Middle East of civilians with peace signs in one hand and a gun in the other. I wonder if they understand.
I wonder how such few men can have so much control over a population of people.
I wonder how one man could want so much power, and against a world still refuse to let it slip from his hands. What childhood injury could have caused that much need?
