STAND WITH HUMANITY, SAY NO TO WAR.
If we lose a war then our loved ones die. If we win the war then we kill other people’s loved ones, and many of ours still perish. Everyone thinks their way of life is the correct one. We just assume that our way is the best. For every soldier who comes home safe and sound, there is a family who is suffering a great loss and vice versa. There are no true winners.
It seems like hundreds of years ago the purpose of war was conquering the world. The purpose of war today seems to be to force each other to see from their narrow point of view. What are we fighting over? Other countries’ laws? Money? Religion? Terrorism? If we’re fighting terrorism, then we should acknowledge that we’re not fighting a country, we’re fighting an organization, and we should take extra precautions to not kill individuals we are trying to save. We’re basically just killing thousands of people until we all come to an agreement, which may never happen.
I am angry because World War III may be right around the corner, and there’s nothing I can do to stop it. I don’t have money, political power or fame. I’m just a commoner , which is sad because the people who have the ability to fix things are doing nothing about it. The people in power seem to be totally okay with the fact that thousands of innocent lives are lost for the sake of winning.
War tactics have gotten more dangerous as years have gone by and technology has progressed. But our reasons for fighting have gotten weaker, and it’s time we take a crack at changing the world without bombs and threats. It’s time to communicate openly across borders and enforce what we think is right without taking lives in the process.
