War is natural

As we have laid down our history, so we now can see its evolution, alongside the flora and fauna

Each moment of discovery , every epoch of enlightenment, the archaeological evidence stares  back at us,
The hardline facts are undeniable, the rise of aggression control and power run parallel to the advancement of our race

Our time now, so blighted by an international arms trade that has no borders and no jurisdictions , a collective desire by world powers to amass and then to mobilize, a common fear shared by enemies of old.

We fund this,  we have done for too many years, we have suffered to provide for others great riches, we have furnished their attitudes towards us

We are gifted nothing in return, some of us do have more than others, some countries more developed than others,
What I have, you have not, but in return, that which you do  have , so many of us yearn for

Safety , security, prosperity, content convictions
I'm sure all of this could have been obtained through the enhancement of peace without restrictions

We as a global community deserve, so much more, and to governments of all nations we implore
