Stop

The actions are horrible and inhumane. 
Citizens in turmoil, as the war rages on. Stop! 
There are no winners, only losers. The body count is horrendous, many left crippled and others homeless. In the name of God! In the name of Allah!
Stop! How many more children are wasted before 
common sense is realised?
Stop I say, stop the wars now!

conflict lingering
soldiers walking to their deaths
for the sake of gods
