Please Stop the War!
Mindanao Philippines, this is the place where the “war” is happening today. It is all over the news. Filipino are dying and fighting with each other. Civilians are affected specially children. The case is, it is MILF (Moro Islamic Liberation Front) versus the military forces of the Philippine government. As Benjamin Franklin said, “There never was a good war or a bad peace. “, which mean that everybody lost on this kind of disaster. You can’t get anything in bloody fight like this. What I don’t like about this is the effect of this war to children. I can’t imagine how children bear this kind of hardship and traumatic experiences. I can’t handle the feeling of seeing children being a victim of war. What will be their future? as kabonfootprint is always saying since he really don’t like violence and its effect to the mind of children. Imagine, this young minds will be the future of our country and if they were nurture with this kind of banging guns and mortars, what kind of person they will be in the future?
Honestly, I don’t know what is the reason why this war begun. All I ask is for the government do something about this to stop this senseless fight and killings.
I will leave to you this statement from Peter Weiss, “Once and for all the idea of glorious victories won by the glorious army must be wiped out. Neither side is glorious. On either side they’re just frightened men messing their pants and they all want the same thing - not to lie under the earth, but to walk upon it - without crutches.” and from Ronald Reagan’s famous quote, “History teaches that war begins when governments believe the price of aggression is cheap.”
