This theater is the most shocking and quite fearful because it is strange, cruel and deadly. It is now staged in urban war zones which are violations against International Law and its Court because this is where peolpe work, shop and children play. Every nation whether they want to be part of this ruling or not is a piece of the puzzle since we all are part of Earth, our only homeland.
For decades my mentor was a shrewd wise man who understood human nature to a T -square. He died April 21, but I still remember his ranting, raging mind when it came to the main characters in the theater of war. Everyone says they don't want war, but he refused to belief this falsehood. In his life time he could see the drama of war escalating until we the people in the audience are paranoid for good reason.
The globe is once again in a Cold War that started with the Korean war of 1950-1953 that never ended. There was no peace treaty. But five million soldiers dead from staged Korean War. The action was all about squelching Communism which is still with the world theater. My mentor's reasoning power was the fact that big-shot nations were the only ones that permitted nuclear bomb storage until their rival arsenals are bursting with explosions enough to blow up Earth and all forms of life a multitude of times. Meanwhile, the threats continue in shouting matches of revenge, the endless theme of flaming, Earth scorching wars that are fast driving climate change to the brink.
My friend stressed the action in this peculiar production includes the little guys who the elites bully. The climax became perilous with threats that almost led to World War III among the U.S, Russian and Cuban actors.
Now it is at this serious point again in the theater of war as we all sit on the edge of our seats and bite our nails as we watch outrageous scenes and replays of tragedies. If war wasn't such a horror of violence and terrorism, it would be a farce. We sit in the footlights holding our breath as this tragic production is played out.
My friend used to raise his voice in anger over international injustice, lack of fairness and ill respect for others. The theater of war needs to have a new world director as a mentor.
