And they killed him...!
I don't know what else to say, it is beyond my comprehension and understanding... And this is all I have been able to think about since the moment I got to know.
My mother told me I must talk to people... but then I just don't know what to say other than "They killed him, how could they? Who gave them the right to? How can they sit on judgment on some other country’s actions and then execute that judgment?!!
According to me it over rides all parameters of common sense; one gave up on equality, logic, fair judgment, human rights etc etc etc long back… This is just perverse and beyond comprehension!!!
Friends say, “Lets execute the monkey man,” … but how is that going to solve anything?! It is not one man alone anymore; it is the way the world is thinking, i.e. a school of thought… Or so I believe. It is a way of thinking that is detrimental to al and not just one person.
Some also say, “it was bound to happen, was inevitable,” like that makes it any less horrifying… if that word is suitable and the fact so few people seem to be moved by it.
Some possibilities and random thoughts:
We are headed for another world war and the ‘second holocaust’… after we isolate and execute thousands of Muslims and then like the Jews give them someone else’s land and provide them with enough money to shoot and torture those who tortured their ancestors… And we keep the economy of arms booming! If by chance those being tortured for sins committed by their ancestors we remind them that they were party to the second holocaust and thus have to give up their land to do justice to history!
Who NEXT???
Civil war in Iraq, because no WMDs or Osama were found… Withdraw US forces because of the pressure etc but ensure the country can never rebuild itself.
How could *WE ever let this happen… Is opposing the Salvajudams (peace camps opened by the Police in the ‘naxal infected’ areas) have to be equal to supporting the naxals?! Opposing the sham/farce (these words seem so insipid when one considers what the monkey man has manage to achieve) of a trial is equated to supporting Saddam’s dictatorship… WHY?
Isn’t one always suppose to try and find a middle path as extremes are harmful and wrong…
*This reminds me of a documentary film on facism in through communalism. It emphasizes the fact that if one remains quite waiting for the right moment to react etc one is as part y to the crime as those who actually commit the crime.
He was hanged for “CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY AND FOR KILLING 148 Shias in 1982”
How does anyone from the monkey man to the executioners, judges, army men, Iraqies and the world, justify this… Especially keeping taking into account the US records themselves that show at least 3,000 US marines have been killed since the occupation and no accounting for the 30 to 50 civilians who die every day since the occupation.
The only explanation I can come up with:
EVE OF DESTRUCTION by Barry McGuire
The eastern world, it is exploding
Violence flarin’, bullets loadin’
You’re old enough to kill, but not for votin’
You don’t believe in war, but what’s that gun you’re totin’
And even the Jordan River has bodies floatin’
But you tell me Over and over and over again, my friend
Ah, you don’t believe
We’re on the eve of destruction.
Don’t you understand what I’m tryin’ to say
Can’t you feel the fears I’m feelin’ today?
If the button is pushed, there’s no runnin’ away
There’ll be no one to save, with the world in a grave
Take a look around ya boy, it's bound to scare ya boy
And you tell me Over and over and over again, my friend
Ah, you don’t believe We’re on the eve of destruction.
Yeah, my blood’s so mad feels like coagulatin’
I’m sitting here just contemplatin’
I can’t twist the truth, it knows no regulation.
Handful of senators don’t pass legislation
And marches alone can’t bring integration
When human respect is disintegratin’
#This whole crazy world is just too frustratin’
And you tell me Over and over and over again, my friend
Ah, you don’t believe We’re on the eve of destruction.
Think of all the hate there is in Red China
Then take a look around to Selma, Alabama
You may leave here for 4 days in space
But when you return, it’s the same old place
The poundin’ of the drums, the pride and disgrace
You can bury your dead, but don’t leave a trace
Hate your next-door neighbor, but don’t forget to say grace
And… tell me over and over and over and over again, my friend
You don’t believe We’re on the eve Of destruction
Mm, no no, you don’t believe
We’re on the eve of destruction.
……………………………
#And that is why I have to find a mountain to marry or live in solitude renouncing the crazy world that is just too frustrating
One must read the following link, though there are biases etc, it is an important perspective of an Iraqi living through the American created nightmare:
