Contemplations 06

Rating: ★5.0


Wars have ravaged
human civilisations
from time immemorial,
and will continue to
till the last man is alive.
For, it is
the manifestation
of human greed.

So very true. Those leaders who have advocated war without provocation are for expansion of their territories and acquisition of wealth.
