Violence does make a clear statement. To use violence is a competition of who will win. Battle that can take a lot of lives, dollars, destroyed cities and energy that could be used more wisely if man was wise, history that will be not be forgotten. That hurt brings justice, puts people in their place and gives satisfaction of revenge and power is a dead end. It has proved itself that violence brings more violence. Some people like it that way. It is provoking way to live, beg for it, to fight like it was the meaning of existence and some kind of destiny that repeats itself no matter what the circumstances, platforms, dilemmas and arms. Now is the golden age of arms dealers. It has been so many decades and to manufacture most imaginable artillery and machinery to kill is a substantial employer and money making strategy that has no limit in the horizon. There is no stop to it unless someone stops it, this madness. Regulation of arms sales is difficult, almost impossible. Someone has to be a person who runs a state and decide how it is run. Protect it. It is protected with arms. Leader as a dictator and as a head of state has power to decide whether the state attacks, invades, oppresses or violates people anywhere. Reasons to attack seem distant until it happens.
Thought that violence would do anything to make things better in the future and good for any nation is an idea of man that cannot live with what he has got, cannot forgive and let go of hurt, does not want his people to thrive but wants to create a power nation. Mental and physical violence are constant and threatening even to people who read the news somewhere of what is happening over there in Ukraine, Sudan, Eritrea, Egypt, Russia, Afghanistan etc. that violence would ease a pain caused, bring a stable and powerful state, keep people as they are wanted to be, obedient and silent. By using force over anything is a weird thought, that destruction would give power, be a win. Retaliation to bring peace, democracy, equality and respectability. It seems so that religious fanatics cause the most wars, religious fundamentalism, disagreements between religious tribes and camps, religious rights, who has the right to kill in the name of God and what kind of God allows killing in his or her name. Are those war-loving Gods men themselves, bearded and muscular, righteous, ancient and angry. Never giving in nor changing. God that wants us to live the ancient times over and over.
