Some quotes about war.

For Russia/Ukraine. For Palestine/Israel..

1- Do we remember who started the war? We remember the winner. And the dead are quiet.

2- My Ojibwa grandmother told me. White people took everything from me. I don't hate them and I remember everything.

3- After you beat a dog for a time, one day. He will get tired and he will bite back.

4- How many races must be erased? How many people must die? Where do the homeless go? We must see the view of both sides. Who will win when the people of the losing country are bury in mass graves?

5- If Ukraine lose to Russia. Who is next?

6- What do the Palestine want? To be left alone. What does Israel want? More land. Greed create hate. Money want more wealth.  No-one win in war.

7- The first shot in the Palestine/Israel happen in 1947. This isn't a new war. Just a never ending battle.

8- State of Israel destroyed 530 villages and 13,000 Palestine killed. Old ancient words. "You destroy my city, you killed my family, you killed my brother and you took my land. What is left for me. DEATH. I am tire of war. 

9-When everyone is dead. Who won?

I support peace. You can't create peace by stealing land and violence. Many places in our world are being attacked.

Your poem in very great compassionate fair honesty reveals the plight of the palestinians oppressed since ages. Too many have died and continue to die so you are so right this is an ongoing apartheid for greed of land and power. Kudos and may you stay fair and just for the oppressed .

Plz also read and comment my newest poem too

I have disagreed with Israel treatment of Palestine for many years. Hamas open a door. A dangerous door. I pray for the safety of the Middle East. Thank you my friend for reading and the comment.

I guess man is a warmonger by instinct, some more than others. Greed and fear are the main motivations for many battles. I think it is easy to judge and moralise about war but it is complicated. Take Palestine for example, The Ottomans and those before them bear some responsibility but as far as recent times it is the British who left Palestine in such a state in 1947/1948. But consider that the majority of people in Palestine at the time were Jewish and neither they nor the Arabs could agree on how to move forward so the Jews took action and had to fight against the Egyptians, the Jordanians and Palestinian Arabs to shore up their claim upon the land. To this one there is no simple solution. Well done for highlighting it Coyote John

We have beaten so many dog in our arrogant,misguided, short, history, that all we can hope for really is that when those dogs start biting back, that they are not rabid. That's a bad position to be in, trying g to prevent disease in your enemy, so they won't infect you while whipping your a*s. I support your positions in this writing. The fighting has to stop
