It’s been over a week now…like literally!! I’ve not read the newspaper in
the hope of escaping the news of the brutal killings of innocent people in the
world; be it the “Gaza and Israel conflict” or “The curious case of crash of Malaysian
airline MH17”. Still, it’s like you can run, you can hide but you can’t
possibly escape the news of over 300 innocent people death’s because someone
was too careless!!
I don’t know why all of this is happening? I’m trying to understand it. I’m
trying to find a justification to all the mindless killings of the people in
Gaza. Why are innocent people being dragged in a political situation and why
are they paying the price of a crime that they’ve not committed? I’m not a Muslim
but I’m surely a human being and what’s happening between Gaza and Israel is
very unfortunate. I know that there are differences in the opinions of the
leaders’ of the two states and yes, killing and kidnapping any person is a crime
but to punish the innocent is also a sin then.
I know a few people were unjustly treated and I don’t want to get into this
long debate about who did the wrong thing first because it’s the classic hen
and egg case. I don’t care about it but, all I care about is the fact that a
lot of people are dying. Their lives are being uprooted and devastated. People are
being killed or should I say MURDERED!!
Why is it so difficult to sit back and talk peacefully? Is it more
difficult than taking lives of innocent people? When did we become so inhuman
and insensitive that lives of people mattered less than our political issues? That
in the madness to gain control and have our opinion held high we forgot that it’s
the people for whose interest the leaders are appointed. The leaders are there
to protect people’s rights. It’s high time now; the concerned authorities
should smell coffee and save the people from these mindless mad killings.
Moreover, this curious case of the Malaysian airlines being mistakenly hit
by a missile; seriously…the missile just hit the plane thinking that it was a
rebel plane!! How?!?!? They just made a call of blowing a huge plane mid air
without checking it thoroughly? They are calling it a “TRAGIC MISTAKE”!! It’s
not a mistake; it’s a HUGE BLUNDER and MURDER of 298 people!! How can someone
be so careless?? And if a certain thing is faulty and you don’t know how to use
it then, why use it??
With this crash of MH17 not only 298 lives were lost but this plane carried
at least 6 AIDS researchers and activists among whom was the prominent Dutch
researcher Joep Lange, former president of the International AIDS Society, and
WHO spokesman Glenn Thomas. Therefore, this was a huge loss of the society as
well.
All I can say in the end is that all this should STOP immediately!! NO MORE KILLINGS!!
