><))o>a world where history continues to repeat itself
#i'm sure by now many of you may have heard of the murdering of Nick Berg by the iraqi terrorists..it is just an extremely cruel act that violated humanity laws..when i heard the news, the whole scene was there..so vivid..in my mind...and this morning, it was in the papers...3 pages at least, had reports on it...during gp today, i got so disturbed as i was reading the first report that i stopped reading halfway through the article and gave leena the subsequent pages that had similar articles...i just couldn't allow myself to picture the crude scene again...jacintha cried when she read about the news...i was too, on the verge of tears for an innocent man was made the scapegoat to redeem the sins which he had not committed. I feel disappointed that we humans, are blessed with the sense of logic and reasoning...yet we commit such barbaric acts. I'm not referring to just those terrorists alone...but the Americans as well. As an ex-history student, i understand that history is suppose to make us learn from past mistakes and avoid making the same mistakes...yet why do history continue to replicate and war triumphant over peace? The United Nations, an evolved world organistion of League of Nations failed to talk US out of the war...The Geneva convention which was meant to protect prisoners of war was probably hardly or never observed. As a result, violence breeds violence...as everyday passes by, humans as a whole achieved nothing but accumulating pages of violence in the historical text. Noble? I hardly think so!
In typing this blog, many of you probably would sense my strong emotions. Well, i do not side the US neither do i support the terrorists of their actions..however, i stand for peace and only wish that killings and sufferings can stop afterall, from a biologist point of view, humans are 99.99% smiliar in genetic makeup arent we?
