HOW DARE THEY CALL THEM CASUALTIES
AS IF THEIR LIVES DON'T MATTER
DO YOU THINK WAR WILL EVER CEASE
THE TALK OF IT'S JUST CHATTER
BECAUSE OF SICK AND TWISTED MINDS
WHO LOVE MONEY AND POWER
THEY HIDE BEHIND ALL OF THEIR LIES
UNTIL THEIR FINAL HOUR
Author's Notes/Comments:
I WAS WATCHING MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE AND AT THE END OF THE MOVIE DENZEL SAYS THERE'S ALWAYS CASUALTIES IN WAR...I THOUGHT WHAT A STRANGE WORD TO USE AND SHOCKING...CASUALTIES...FOR LIVES LOST DUE TO WAR... SO UTTERLY DISRESPECTFUL OF LIFE....DEVASTATING...SENSELESS...NO COMPASSION OR EMPATHY...DISGUSTING....NO MORALS OR CONSCIENCE...WAR MUST END...I AM SURE MOST PEOPLE WOULD MUCH RATHER LIVE IN PEACE...WHY MUST SO MANY SUFFER FOR THE IGNORANCE OF THE FEW THAT INSTIGATE IT AND REFUSE TO LET GO OF IT. THERE ARE NO WINNERS IN WAR...WE ARE ALL LOSERS....THOSE WHO INSTIGATE IT AND THOSE WHO DO NOTHING TO TRY TO STOP IT...
