War

Islam wants to kill itself. No. Humans want to kill themselves. The Middle East and North Africa are full of them...humans. No different from the west, the south, the east. What does it matter if the way that death is sped up is through obesity or conflict or cancer or drugs. The quickening pace to eternity, if you believe it, appears to be a common condition. The great tragedy is made up of two parts. One, the human that wishes death for some unknown or known reason and, two, the human that wishes death on others. The second is a common trait among one group of humans in the Middle East. The black flag. How does one seek to relate to these people. How does one convince them that liberalism is the true path. One cannot, because it is not. Perhaps a third tragedy. Spending one's life time attempting to understand number two.
