Default Humans vs. Humanity- Terrorism and Fear

HUMANS’ v/s HUMANITY!!!


What to say more about this topic. Its self explanatory what has been going all around the world? Terrorist groups like Al-Qaeda, Ltte, etc. have been a menace which has been hard to curb. The growing no. of swine flu affected people has also raised many eyebrows. Thousands of diseases, groups, policies, persons have made life miserable for the whole world that one has to think whether the innate goodness even exists. All over the globe the no. of dead are increasing and everyday we hear news about a bomb here and there which is no longer surprising though. Although there are few evil faces of cruelty, they are creating havoc and destruction for the majority. In their success to spread hatred, none seems to be spared.
What they want is clear, no more shall the mind be without fear and a blast or killing could happen anywhere as if the scared mind would signal a danger. But are we living in the 21st century where we talk about big bucks to be earned, new trends, no more wars but the reality is that the war by man against man had never stopped and doesn’t seem to stop now. New born come into this world and at that instant someone or the other is killed by a bomb or suicide attack. GRIM REALITIES OF A SO CALLED PEACEFUL WORLD!

Don’t we have the right to live? Should we not elate at the burst of a firecracker as the mind would say no it’s a horrible bomb, should we not be allowed to experience the cool breeze from the nearby wonderful sea, won’t we be able to see the dazzling colors of the rainbow, is this what is called life! They want to create an unwanted spectacle to leave their hanging sword ready to be fallen on common people. The peaceful smell of all the 7 continents seems to be in grave danger now.

I fail to understand that what they will get with barren land surrounded by blood covered people repelling anyone who try to come near them. The media shows the plight of women, abandoned children, crying families but nothing changes when you are shouting at deaf ears. What is the common mans fault that their innocent family members die. War on terror has only increased the no. of deaths, no. of hardships and no. of sufferings. The last thing you can expect is your tears to dry up from your eyes. It’s easy to console torn apart families for a moment but just think had you lost someone so special would you have been able to start your lonely lives again? This question can’t be answered.

Kindly lend your ears, you all are asked questions about sex, past relationships, fantasies in reality shows but have you ever been asked about how many orphaned kids are all out there, all alone in this cruel world? How many donations have you made?
Why isn’t there a war on hunger, or a war on illiteracy or why no one fights against poverty? Why do they have to use their ability to fight their own brothers and not fight AIDS, the ever growing danger?

I have no answers but maybe god has. All I can say now is that we all must close our eyes and pray to god,” please help us, oh almighty, give them some sense, some goodness. Maybe it’s just that they have treaded the wrong path. Show them the right direction. PLEASE GIVE PEACE ATLEAST ONE CHANCE TO GROW IN THIS WORLD!”

It only seems like constant war is a new thing. Its not... I can almost guarantee that before the radio, TV, & Internet people were fighting wars. But people across the globe didn't hear about it, so to them there were no wars. Does that make sense?

To me, all the atrocities that people have to endure now have been going on for hundreds of years in different locations at different times. Its only thanks to the Internet & TV that we know of the wars in small countries that most people didn't even know about 50 or 60 years ago.

terrorism, wars, diseases ain't new things for this world. We remember back in history , Britisher label bhagat singh as terrorist, and many indian as terrorist. Similarly in 1856, british label many muslims and hindus as terrorists.. so terrorism records are available throughout the history. It isn't new thing man.. But the pattern has been changed... Now countries use terrorism just to show they was right in there act. Like prior to US involvement in Afghanistan and iraq, both countries was quite peaceful countries... I remember the headlines of 1997, which says there is 98% peace in Afghanistan, and also people leave their shops open while going for prayer (can you expect same in US)? But when USA came, things got changed, terrorism started and grown .. and still growing.. so i think the problem is USA invasion, like British was in the 1856 or early 1900s..

Similarly swine flu isn't new thing, in past many people died in Switzerland, that is why it is called swine flu..
