I wrote this back when I first saw them shooting babies in the streets on my TV. It has more meaning now after the gas. I can't believe that there are these types of monsters running around killing and thinking they are justified or right. There is no excuse for these murders except they are depraved people with no morals or conscience or realization of the consequences of their horrific actions.God is not mocked there will be retribution. Somehow let there be peace!

 Syria’s Massacre

I am crying, I can’t see

I am disgusted I can’t believe

Why Are They Killing the Children

What is happening where and when?

Why are they killing the children

What type of monster is this we see

Coming across our TV

A new type of man or creed

A Spawn from hell a demon seed

A man with no conscious or fear of Hell

A man who has a lust to kill

I don’t think a man but an abomination

But God is not mocked by your sins on a nation

You will pay the price when you die

You will pay for God does not lie

So get ready for your retribution

There will be your death soon and jubilation

All children go to heaven’s well

But you sir, will go to hell!

Reviewed by Ronald Hull
Reviewed on September 19, 2013
War is hell and always has been. Innocents, including children, have always been killed. It's just that modern technology allows us to see it when it's happening. All the more reason to end the war altogether and come up with other ways of ending conflict.

All those crusades with God on our side killed so many children you wouldn't believe. Only there was never any reporting of it. Reports of valor and courage made better press than massacres of women and children. Do you think that B-52 strikes, carpet bombing, sending cruise missiles and shelling doesn't kill indiscriminately? There has always been, “collateral damage.” What makes us so self righteous when we have done the same?

The “he” you refer to is no different from a general in the Pentagon, with the will of the people of the United States behind him, ordering an airstrike on a country unable to stop the strike.
