Privatization of Terror

The Privatization of Terror 

In Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iraq bombs explodes, 
drones fall killing the innocent. People who live 
under this tyranny of terror, bury their dead and go 
on living, as they must… terror will not bow them.
And now violence came to Boston (USA) that got 
a worldwide coverage a market town in Pakistan 
never gets. Privatized terror never pays, it kills and 
wounds, but people will not submit to horror and 
the endeavour of the criminals is in vain and deserve 
nothing but utter contempt; whoever they are and
whatever their political object, aggression is terror, 
pre empty strikes against population ( in Boston this 
time) is a crime against humanity.

Hi Jan - "pre empty strikes" At first I saw a typo, and then a great meaning - succinct yet full. I hope it wasn't a typo, or just me looking for brilliance everywhere in your words. You said it: terror is terror even in a school day recess - child on child. love, Kathy
