Somewhere In the Middle East

Young men, Women and children, Fleeting their land, A war destroying their country, An enemy they can’t seem to understand, “we are freeing you from your leader’s tyranny, slaughtering you all is a war causality...” On embers and ashes an empire of democracy shall be built, Oh... The irony.

I can only imagine the pain that those people go through. It hurts me just to think about it.
