“It’s our land but it’s not very comfortable to be here,” said the private, who like the other soldiers gave only his first name and rank for security reasons. “It doesn’t feel like home.”

Take a step down and see the little people
They might be young
But they're the ones
That make the BigPeople big
So listen as they whisper:

“It’s our land but it’s not very comfortable to be here.  It doesn't feel like home."

Work out territorial disputes at a negotiating table, not by killing off little people?
