Khairul Ahsan, Thank you for reading this. and commenting. I appreciate it. Sometimes just one comment and one reader can help to alleviate the feeling of not being heard at all. Much appreciated.

How sad. I don't agree with war either - it's all about making money, at the expense of innocent, and gullible young men.
