Leaders decide when to declare war
Silence disgruntled men in their youth :
Weapons bring loot

COPLA 97 INVOCATION : This Bad Guy World

God of money makes monkeys of man
Great leaders line up for Mammon mass :
Count notes sleepless

Sound of money clinking in the bank
Is enough to make leaders kiss *ss :
Monkey business

Leaders decide when to declare war
Silence disgruntled men in their youth :
Weapons bring loot

Warring peoples always want something more
Like a thousand acres of greed to soothe :
Vanquished stay mute

Bonsoir Your Lordship ! I note how active you've been lately in spite of your benumbing pains looming larger by the day. It's easy to say: "Hold on, Don't give up !" What else can one do in the circumstances.

Life must go on. Just think what happened to the Irish Catholics for centuries under the Imperial British: suppressed, humiliated, tortured, starved and despised? Who came to their help despite their being of the same European Christian breed ? They fled to the States leaving behind their loved ones.

Likewise remember: Twice in a couple of centuries, the Old Hibernating Grizzly was woken up rudely by yapping growling French and German wolves - only to be sent packing back to their dens with their tails tucked between their hind legs at the sole cost of the Old Maddened Bear for the benefit of the World at large.

The question here to unravel is not what happens to ethnic, racial or religious affinities when threatened by their own kind: It is a question of Man's Inhumanity to Man, My dear friend ! Wignesan

Very apropos for our time. What does Putin want? He already has great wealth and the favor of the oligarchs that he created or at least, has nourished. Does he now just want territory to make Russia as large as the Soviet Union was in its heyday, subjecting so many people who did not want to be a part of it to the corrupt communist regimes.

The more the world changes, the more it stays the same. 2014 to 2022.
