Helicopter Logic

Over the past two weeks I've seen people held against their will heard their desperate cries to be rescued watched them be shut up-beaten up- blown up I've watched them plummet from the undercarriage of a rescue plane.. and just today, i watched two men-ropes around necks dangling lifeless below the bottom of a helicopter Over the past two weeks i saw millions of people go from taking small sips of freedom for the past twenty Years to gulping down terror by the bucket full... but the most disturbing thing is that despite all the heartache- humiliation- misery rape and death.. there is still one man on this planet who thinks that the whole damn thing was a smashing success... and he can't remember why.
