I was reading through www.informationclearinghouse.info and I found this quote, I thought to share it with you:
''American strategists have calculated the proportion of civilians killed in this century's major wars. In the First World War 5 per cent of those killed were civilians, in the Second World War 48 per cent, while in a Third World War 90-95 per cent would be civilians: Colin Ward, Anarchy in Action Sad but true !!

Uh huh, sure... they will. There is a quote somewhere... goes something like, "History shows that mankind learns nothing from history." If it kept getting worse and worse like that, then we were NOT learning... and we're still out making war and "accidentally" killing innocents today!

True Runt, I agree with you...
Humans on this earth will never be just, that is why we muslims believe in the hereafter ( Life after death ) when God will judge between us. We should stop war before war finish us off.

I think there is a lot of blame and responsibility to go around, but it's when we all stop blaming each other and start trusting and respecting one another, then we can actively work towards peace and stopping all the wars and fighting.

Well, I hope that if I were ever drafted to fight some war, that people wouldn't think it was better that I died than someone who was still lucky enough to call themselves a 'civilian' - hell, they often even have the audacity to attach 'innocent' in front of civilian, making the poor saps recruited suddenly 'guilty'!

But at least people who are drafted are given some training in being able to stay alive in a conflict... civilians do not have that protection.

Ha! Do you think it's safer to have training in how to shoot a gun and throw and grenade and end up somewhere like Vietnam, or would you rather take your chances in the suburban jungle? Civilian deaths are caused by bombs (or genocide), and military training ain't gonna do you no good there. Perhaps it's better that men and women in all age groups and social classes were equally represented in the casualty statistics, rather than just an entire generation of young men - then war wouldn't be just another dimension of foreign policy (paraphrased from someone...).

If people are tuly interested in stopping all this trouble then they must realise that human beings are inherently evil. Thats all we have to do. The trouble is most people don't have the bottle to face up to this fact and kid themselves that they are lovely people. If you have the bottle to face up to this reality then thats a good sign. If we keep kidding ourselves then you can just keep carrying on watching the wars go on.
The desire to recieve in order to receive + the desire to control others = A whole lot of pain and misery! www.kabbalah.info for those who fancy taking another route. I know I keep banging on about this but I haven't heard one person come out and tell me that what I am saying is wrong. |
