United States creating more terrorism
Dear Editor,
Today while listening to BBC news
I began crying while driving down Wildcat canyon
The news was about children with rags to wear in the cold somewhere in Romania
It was about the Iraqi people fearing the American military creating more bloodshed in Afghanistan
It was about the U.S. government refusing to do the weapons inspection as demanded by the United Nations and as agreed to by the Iraqi government – the U.S. government obviously wants war, the news stated.
The United States of America is in deep
It is creating more and more terrorists at this very moment
If the so-called Powers-to-be, with George Bush as their fall guy, do in fact begin spending our gung-ho youths’ lives to destroy more life, the United States will have created even more terrorists
For terrorism is nothing more than a product of suppression and oppression
No military force, not even the worlds greatest being the United States can stop terrorism
In fact the stronger the military the smarter and stronger the terrorist – Sept. 11 is the master example – and the result being our floundering economy and flailing freedom
On the light side
We are becoming.
It is about accepting ourselves as an individual and caring for others
For only the individual can bring peace and not add to the pain of the world
There is no tomorrow
