Zero Dark Thirty..

     
    Over so many millennia of existence it is only understandable that humans now acknowledge the impermanence of their existence. We, all living beings that are 'gifted' with the ability for intelligent thought & reasoning, realize that no one is immortal. 

    Following that understanding, more & more, the hesitancy, to commit acts of atrocity & unjustifiable taking of lives as well as random & large scale destruction of peoples, cultures and anything else that stand in the way of one's agenda; is greatly reduced. 

    Any person AND especially any Nation that has the means, the resources & the inclination to so commit atrocity against any other person or Nations, is very reluctant to even reconsider the options. Instead there is  a perverse pleasure in doing what humans should hesitate to commit….take the opponents out! 
    Especially when no perp is going to be around to regret or to be punished at all for any longer than ONE lifetime of at most 90 years!

   Thus whoever is not in the same agreeable category or is belligerent & deemed to be a threat to the intents of the more  powerful nation, is almost always with little hesitation - terminated. 

     Nations with greater fire-power, are better equipped & powerfully aligned to eliminate & take out its perceived  opponents with no negative repercussions from any other quarters, will go ahead & do just that…thus making our world exactly what it is today - a world where the ones with the biggest guns call the shots!

    Justifications and all the eye-wash rhetorics are only for self consolation, to help soothe over the psyche, to still conscience, to ease the mind.

 Judging from world events, it is disturbing to witness, read about & hear of the immense, unlimited expenditure of resources, man-power, as well as time, materials and human dedication that are expended to achieve a political aim - that in most cases involve the taking out, termination of an individual, or the effective deactivation of a functional sovereign entity.

  The display of such vehemence, such venom, hatred, such hostility, such supreme intolerance for some other creatures or opponent nations to occupy the same time period, is beyond most human comprehension.

    Great praise and self congratulations are heaped on successful operations that culminate in the death, destruction of an opponent & or his forces. Hardly any remorse over the talking of lives or the wanton destruction wreaked. Every act is justifiable. 
Feelings of Loss? The pain of the victims mourners? Don't talk of these inconsequentials.

    Imagine if the same commitments of  such awesome abundance of resources, the powers applied, the dedicated countless man-hours expended are aimed at achieving higher human goals & ideals?

Is there any point or purpose to even mention the concept called Love? Or the concept of sanctity & respect for human life? 

Is there anything 'beautiful' anymore when the monstrosity of such destructive psychopathic abandon is frivolously, triggered & indulged in?

   What is the point of elevating ideals called humanity's  shared destiny? 

    All the hollow talk blasted all over the air-waves on the nobility of our species,

the greatness of our cultures, the intelligence & achievements of the human race - how far, how advanced, how great we have become from the times of the caves?!

Thus, being mortal, nobody bothers to dwell on trivialities like these, when after 80 or so years the perp is no more and memories don't hurt no one…not especially the long-gone, dead perp. 

    
    If anyone or anything at all offends one, don't even hesitate to take extreme measures since very, very soon one would be no more. 
It does not matter what or how bad or how severe one acts whilst one lived one's very short, temporary life!

And the Divine??

That is something which from the light of the present situation of 'might is right', would provide much mirth!
