Its the CAUSE, NOT the Answer

December 7, 1941..It was a day like any other..A bright Sunday morning..clear sky..it was a ordinary day for people of Hawaii..But things changed..the clear sky now turning dark,People could see large number of planes(353 to be precise) heading towards pearl harbor.. It was a surprise military strike conducted by the Japanese navy against the United states of America..The attack sank 4 U.S navy battle ships, wounded nearly 1,500 and took lives of over 2,500 people..It was an attack the world can never forget..will never forget..Cause on this day the sleeping giant woke up..what followed next was total chaos.."little boy" and "fat man" shook the world..on August 6, 1945 the "little boy" jumped on the city of Hiroshima followed by "fat man" crushing the city of Nagasaki on August 9.."little boy" and "fat man" were the two nuclear bombs dropped on the city of Hiroshima and Nagasaki as ordered by the U.S President Harry S. Truman.. Over 200,000 men and women lost their lives..Thousands more have died with Illness attributed to exposure to radiation released by the bombs..And when all this was happening in some corner of the sky,Mars,The god of war was smiling.. he had done his work..Before man learned to talk..man learned to fight..fight for something which was not even his..Even Today we fight these wars its just that the face of war has changed..in the earlier times the opponents would face each other bravely and fight..today One opponent attacks the other like a gut less chicken..yes..terrorism..Michel Nostradamus (born Michel de Nostredame), a 16th Century French astrologer and physician once predicted..

In the year of the new century and nine months,
From the sky will come a great King of Terror…
The sky will burn at forty-five degrees.
Fire approaches the great new city…

In the city of York there will be a great collapse,
two twin brothers torn apart by chaos
while the fortress falls the great leader will succumb
third big war will begin when the big city is burning


And it so happened that on September 11, 2001 the city of New york was under attack..
On that morning, 19 Islamist terrorists affiliated with al-Qaeda hijacked four commercial passenger jet airliners.The hijackers intentionally crashed two of the airliners into the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York City, killing everyone on board and many others working in the building.The United States responded to the attacks by launching a "War on Terrorism", invading Afghanistan to depose the Taliban, who had harbored al-Qaeda terrorists, and enacting the USA PATRIOT Act.And once again the god of war was laughing..

November 26,2008 The City of Mumbai after a tiering day was shook to its very roots when 15 gunmen entered the busy capital..Hundreds of people lost their lifes..The atack lasted for 4 days..the attacks occurred in South Mumbai: at Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus the Oberoi Trident, the Taj Mahal Palace & Tower, Leopold Cafe, Cama Hospital, the Orthodox Jewish-owned Nariman House, the Metro Cinema, and a lane behind the Times of India building and St. Xavier's College. There was also an explosion at the Mazagaon docks, in Mumbai's port area, and in a taxi at Vile Parle.

War..We have been fighting wars for a very long time..but where has all this led us to??nowhere..so why dont we give peace a chance??war has never been the answer..it has always been the "cause"..People are afraid to step out of their houses.."What if today is the day i die?"..Its not late..we can stop these wars..All we have to do is to start spreading the message of peace and love and soon we will have the god of war cornered..only to teach him to love too.. :)
