I Can't Light... No More of Your Darkness.

All these issues... seems to change to black and white.

I'm growing tired: your times stand still before me;
frozen here on the ladder of my life...

You misread
my meaning
when I met you...

Closed the door
but I'm not blind...

My oh my!

The Never-Ending Story.

Well it's the same... old song.
But with a different reason...
since bin Laden's gone.

Yes it's the same, old song...
but for a different reason,
it goes on and on...

How will we know when we've accomplished our goals?
What are our military goals, specifically?
Are we counting the dead? All the dead?
When we've killed a certain number, is the goal met?

In the absence of any stabilizing force in the region,
what are we attempting to accomplish through our continued destruction?

Once we destroy the entire area's infrastructure, and push as many weapons into their society as we can get away with, then is the mission over? No one is talking about destroying and then rebuilding again, right?

So what exactly are we planning to accomplish through continued military destruction? To save certain lives, while others are altered beyond repair, as we've done? Why intervene in the first place... simply let nature play itself out via Darwin's law. The survivors will survive, with no help from US. Why cripple them, in trying to allegedly protect people from evil?

If America looks away, and this is authorized paid by our collective taxes, is our ignorance of our actions going to excuse us when the same is done to us, to our weaker citizens who have no voice (no choice)? Is this really a game we should be playing, when you consider that eventually the consequences of our ongoing military actions will likely be felt again, here at home?
