Time to remember

After days, and months, the focus of the news has shifted from Covid, or Vaccine, and the question of the closing or opening of international borders, and what else is happening in the world has come into the lime light! 

There has been a car bomb blast in Afghanistan, which killed tens of people, female students, children mainly, and now a clash between Israel and Palestine that has been raging for the past couple of days, ten Israelis and 100 Palestinians have been killed.... and it goes on. A bloody story which seem to have continued from the time immemorial. 

People clashing for power, property, or for their different ways of praying to the same God! 

The reasons are many, but we know, it is mainly because of

Politics

Religion

Polticised religion

Religionised politics 

Religiosity

Political fervour

That forces people to kill each other. But it is time to remember

That no one, not any one has won this war, this holy war!

  2. Ignore my first comment. Maybe this punctuation would make it clearer -

    ".....from Covid or Vaccine, and the question of the closing or opening of international borders. And what else is happening in the world has (now) come into the lime light!

    I know it's prose so the fact that I had to think about it a few times is ok, but it distracted me from the real content.

    I love your list!
