Jan Hansen Poet Blank verse

Let Iran Live

Let Iran live
 
Those who want a war in Iran, ought to look
At the people in the street, shopping laughing a good time is had.
Millions of them will be killed and maimed by war is as idiotic as it is senseless and solves nothing. Other
than giving more power to the Saudis and the elephant
in the room which tactfully not mention.
I ask Europe not to give in to” a coalition of the willing” you
Plant bombs, kill people on others behalf
And call it democracy.
If you do the retribution will be endless

Quoth Theraven May 3, 2020 at 8:34 PM Jan, It's true what you say except for a few bad apples. But one bad apple tends to spoil the others. So many countries reap what they sow leaving the future to haphazard, and oft delusional, self-fulfilling prophecies that stifle true freedom of expression. Not that this is always a bad thing. -Richard
