A war of choice, A choice of peace

Somber thoughts: Maximum pressure can never resist augmentation to war.
Iran posed no imminent threat,
war narrative changed by the hour, to the cheer
of arms marketers.
who is responsible for this catastrophe?
How long will the blockade last?
Who is the ultimate winner?
Questions weigh heavy, the answers heavier.
War of choice is lucrative business of speculation,
but the best choice is always peaceful co-relation.
