A heinous monster, prancing across the words to cause havoc in even the mere tought of it, brutally crushing all grandeur, and spendour of civilization, putting all at stake, turning all into topsiturvy, snatching sons from mothers, husbands from lonely wives and fathers from anxious children- these are what "WAR" can do.
It's a stigma on the human race, a curse hamppering the forward march of ciivilization since times immemorial. Why a war?
They say, a war between two nations is launched to sort out problems, to provide a solution, wherein one loses, and other wins. But does it?
Does it actually provide a solution? If yes, which Holy book has mentioned that killing of the innocent mass is justified when there is fight amongst the wealthier? The cries of bereaved families of those who lost a member in the war, the thousand guns, half-cut bodies lying about among the cascade of red- bloodshed all around, smothers the atmosphere immediately after war.
Sometimes, the effects are massive, leaving about no recovery for the same- a perfect example being the nuclear bomb attack at Hiroshima and Nagasaki; the effect of which looms large even today, i.e., seven decades after the explosion! Children still are weak, abnormal- abnormality inserted in their altered genes.
It solves nothing, a peek into the history of wars prove that ocmmoners have never gained, yet had always had to bear the cost of it, and consequences thereafter.
Why should a civilized man suffer at the hands of the hysteria of war when the problem of malnutrition and housing has to be expressed world over? Wouldn't it be more useful if the amount spent behind buying explosives and worthless wars would have been used for the benefit of mankind, rather than deliberately make them all face the hostilities, as if the tough life they already had been leading wasn't enough?
No doubt "War" is a futile exercise. Yet I am pretty amazed to see how they occur frequently, still today!
