Abominable
Abominable.
Truly biblical—no, pre-biblical times when civilians everywhere look to the heavens and declare the Gods are quarrelling, when in fact these are not Gods—this is not Godlike—these are men—foolish, wealthy men—fighting over their supposed interest in property...commodities.
Religion.
Morality.
Commerce and trade.
Wealth without end. Amen. Amen.
Civilians. The word no longer exists. And since when are soldiers lives more valuable strategically than that of a civilian? Since when are children's bodies bartered for a soldiers safe return? Why do modern wars exact a greater and greater toll on civilians than the military organizations prosecuting them? This has got to stop. Otherwise, we the civilian anywhere are treated worse than slave. All our resource gone to feed the principalities that be, who turn themselves into gods and slew with famine, with pestilence, with fire from above any living thing that slows their rate of return.
