Perpetrators and Victims of Wars...

 In the hands of monsters are placed the lives of innocent young men and so many people endorse this. So this is my point of view...enjoy...the video by Creedence Clearwater is most powerful...

  • Killing of Young Men

    War such a terrible thing
    No need for it at all
    Except for those
    Who worship it the most

    Billions of dollars spent
    To implement
    The killing of young men
    Who beguiled by patriotism
    Lies told to them

    There cannot be peace with war
    Impossible it is
    But down through history
    Seen we have this happen
    Over and over again

    Dead Sons

    How many mothers go to sleep
    Tears upon their cheeks
    Knowing that their sons are dead
    A terrible thing indeed

    And what about the wounded
    Who return from war
    Legless armless
    Their minds disturbed

    Nothing given to them
    No aid to assist
    Thrown away like 
    Used up fodder
    That is all they have become 
    To those who sit in high command

    Chess Pieces on a board

    Books have been written
    Words been said
    About these things
    Yet still they do go on

    Told they are these young men
    Of how they help their fellow man
    When into war they go
    The only people that they help
    Are those who give commands

    Sit they do behind their desks
    Move pieces all around
    Pieces that are really men
    But care they not at all

    Into depths they fall...


    Rise to power a risky thing
    With it comes immense wealth
    Happiness of a kind
    Like a miser gloating over gold

    Yet lose they will part of their soul
    The part that in loving lives
    Darkness overtakes them all
    Into the depths of hell they sink
    Not realizing 
    Or perhaps they do
    And do not care

    Fighting for wrong....


    What more can one say
    Those who military are
    Will not believe any of this
    Programmed are they
    Like so many are today

    Think they do to fight for right
    Yet they fight for what is wrong
    Fighting never did work out
    And never will


    and so it is....

    A truly masterful polemic against the horrors of war. Well done Carolina.
