Madness!

Was gonna post something photo related I had already written up, but it just seemed so damned obscene when half a world away our military proxy is proactively expanding its slaughter of women and children in a conveniently walled up ghetto (funny how we humans learn)- and who are we to criticize after our own little foray into en masse civilian slaughter the last five years...

For those I offended with said statement and will therefore feel obliged to respond with their righteous indignation, justifications, or outright insults- both sides are every bit the mad dog left standing in the desert sun for centuries on end. They both deserve to rot in hell together for the outright barbarism they delight on inflicting upon each other. And I'd leave it at that if it wasn't for the the children they insist on bringing into this world and then poisoning with their putrid, fanatical hatred. Again, for how many centuries?

But write and shout they will, of who are the more civilized, the more justified, the more moral and righteous and benevolent- even as their very children die for their everlasting blood lust. Accountability and responsibility forever the fault of the other...
