What a beautiful day it is in my part of the world. But people-killing bombs are exploding in so many other parts of the world with emissions circling around in irradiating circles of accumulative pollution against the lives of people and the global environment. How sad indeed.
Here is my recent essay.

ENDLESS RAW-WAR
–Mirrors Most Violent Serial Crime on Earth
"You can bomb the world to pieces, but you can't
bomb it into peace."
–Spearhead, Michael Franti
The
naked little girl named Kim from Saigon, now Ho Chi Minh City, capital of South
Vietnam still screams in history's haunting memories from illegal misdirected
napalm and white phosphorus jelly burning her clothes off and her body to the
bone. This heart-wrenching image is tattooed in red blood in our memory banks. Kim's voice echoes from thunderous,
black carbon war clouds that envelope Earth with nuclear fallout causing
cancer, diseases and child deformities in reproductive systems of humans and
animals alike. Frogs born with nine legs only help the food industry. The US
has the worst record of chemical, radioactive abuse on the planet. Kim, who
almost died from her burns, as an adult started a foundation for child victims
of such wars.
Out
of the lower depths of Hell during torturous genocidal holocausts of the world
come scenes of man's most atrocious horrors that absolutists in power commit.
Army officials train and condition youths to kill by demeaning the opposition
they peg as the enemy. Statesman
Mikhail Gorbachev, who
ended the arms race in his time and wrote the book A Time for Peace, said, "We must stop calling one another the
enemy." President Abraham
Lincoln encouraged people to make friends instead of enemies.
Calling
Asians yellow gooks, Jesus of Nazareth would never do. Historically labeling First Americans
and American Africans as negative blacks –adjectives instead of nouns–and
denigrating human beings as redskins only keeps the ring of fire flaming. Down through history people having more
protective brown pigment than those whose ancestors lived for thousands of
years great distances from the equator and sun, have often been called
"blacks" to keep them down.
Identifying anyone as a "black"–ancient code for slave–is
physically profiling, the secret ingredient that fuels youth-killer wars that
also cause grotesque deformities and abortions.
When
hot-explosive war is committed it in turn causes earthquakes that trigger
volcano eruptions and in turn provoke tsunamis. To top all this chaos the military extended the monsoon
seasons through climate warfare to prevent munitions supplies from getting
through to opposition lines during the Vietnam War. This tampering with global weather was conducted on the Ho
Chi Minh trail running through Laos. US-led bombing raids there devastated
thousands of civilians and their land, mostly non-combatants, with millions of
bomblettes from missiles, chemically and radioactively maiming and killing,
especially with depleted uranium (DU) from nuclear waste. This toxic pollutant
is also made into bullets powerful enough to blow holes in armored
tanks–another cunning way to disperse our unwanted irradiated matter around the
world. After over 40 years teams of women are still cleaning up after a foreign
army caused Laos to he the most bombed nation in the world for the longest
period of time.
This
seeding of clouds for military advantage has now become even more Earth-shaking
with man-made electromagnetic and laser beams penetrating deep into Earth our
only sustenance, all done in secret.
But will vibrating tectonic plates, the very rocks that continents and
islands stand on for support, endure the most powerful stress by military
manipulation through climate warfare? The original land mass, Pangaea, was
disrupted so much in the beginning stages of the Earth's formation, that it was
knocked apart and now looks like a gigantic puzzle, even overlapping in places
to this day. Other than fault
lines, man does not know how different layers of Earth are wired, so to speak. Right now an earthquake can take place
somewhere in the world and its seismographic waves can cause a similar
disruption a great distance away.
The
color orange is a fixation among the military and national policing
systems. Today's protestors
against aggression are confined behind orange mess, out of sight, out of mind
to keep the corporate governing
powers rich through war economies based on deaths. Peace economies, based on life, do not
require lethal child-killing accumulative ammunition already outlawed by
numerous international and national institutions. They provide employment that doesn't risk their lives and
happiness. By keeping young people
in their own nations, there is no need for recruiting naive youths for
debilitating combat duty nor the manufacture of trillions of dollars worth of
war machines causing devastation on the ecology. Focus on keeping politicians
honest and humane instead of fixating on death squads. Bring the young people
home where they can raise their families safely instead of the same people
mourning needless deaths and life-long handicaps of missing legs and
arms–together with massive head injuries and suicides that also result from
fruitless wars.
Every
nation needs to maintain its troops trained for nature's disasters and to
manage the new age of freak weather combined with man-made munitions causing
great floods, draughts, and suffering in general. Wars result from failures to negotiate professionally.
Again,
barrels of poisonous toxic dioxin and Triazine (Altazine) in herbicide named
Agent Orange marked with the color orange, kill animals and human beings
through deformities and mental retardation in children, along with death to the
environment. Combat parents handling deadly chemicals and depleted radioactive
uranium (DU) and civilians trapped in war zone cities add to the victims of war. Human beings do not come under a
euphemism the military coined as "collateral damage" as if human
beings were the riff-raff of war demolition. The old reminder "Remember the Alamo!" has been
replaced by "Remember the Holocaust, Hiroshima, Nagasaki and Fallujah!",
the latter site in Iraq bombed to ashes where women are now afraid of pregnancy
from war-torn babies born with grotesque deformities. Fumigant Agent Orange and its lethal emissions are illegal according
to International Law. Today's
supersonic missiles, as well as radioactive munitions, are genocidal with
former rural battlefields now fought in modern urban cities and communities
where children play and adults work and shop.
And
finally, the color orange reflects deep meaning in the book and movie, Clockwork
Orange. War darkly symbolizes a sick, unstable side of society that
brutally asserts its force on people through compulsive violence and terrorism
from under the influence of super drugs and munitions altering reproduction
systems.
Greek
King Pyrrhus recognized the futility and destructive power of greed and control
of aggressive war that is never worth its cost in pyrrhic wars.
During
gross war the victimizers often use the ruse of music, also brought out in Clockwork
Orange, to distance and sooth
sinister trouble psyches that conflict torture in prisoner-of-war camps and
violence of gas furnace crematoriums. Through symphony music, especially by
Richard Wagner's Die Meistersinger,
Nazi Germany attempted to dispel the evil that the nation committed. Music, too, can be used as a drug in
marching parades that heighten patriotic fervor and shallow flag waving of the
masses, even with religio-political church doors and alters wrapped in bunting.
"There
is no safety in war."–Roman poet Virgil, born in 70 BCE
