no trenches other than the horror of death dispensed by some computer controlled by a contrary angel half a planet away
this conflict is the Agamemnon of our age
played out on the plains of Meggido
civilisations do clash as history says
yet are not worth a single aliqout of vengeance if it dispenses with one more life as an olive is pressed between stones to liberate its precious oil is of so little value
Afghanistan the graveyard of empires
time to desist and address the balance sheet of wars declaring a truce
no conflict is so prolonged and so devoid of meaning
history will declare its verdict
a folly of pride
