This Ukraine-Russia war brings the headlines, but Yemen, Tigray, or even still Syria have been bubbling for a while, and we know all about Afghanistan or Iraq. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zealot Posted February 24, 2022 Share #7 Posted February 24, 2022 A day will come when all war will cease. The earth cries out with the blood of the ages. My prayers were from Revelation this morning, “ He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.” 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilbur ★ Posted February 24, 2022 Share #9 Posted February 24, 2022 It isn't just some far away and insignificant land. To think so is incredibly small minded. It is real people with real lives and real desires and real dreams, the biggest being freedom. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoseySusan Posted February 25, 2022 Share #18 Posted February 25, 2022 Two scenes keep playing on a loop in my mind. 1. “…cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war” from Julius Caesar. I keep hearing a former student’s recitation because he gave a chilling performance. 2. The final scene from Don’t Look Up where family and friends are having a last meal and Leonardo DiCaprio says plaintively “We really had it all” before the explosion levels his house. I am stunned when leaders of nations and world builders intentionally destabilize a country. It’s criminal. It’s got to be criminal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just despise the fact that the decisions by an elite few causes the deaths of thousands of innocents. Such are the hierarchies of the human world.

He’d have to get in line behind all the others, including a few US leaders who thought invasions and destabilization were just and right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
