The Bitter Fruit

For those of you who so gladly embraced the Republican notion of "regime change" in the Middle East, specifically Iraq...you got your wish...though perhaps not nearly the kind of change you and they so foolishly expected. The sad events in Paris are a direct result of that totally misguided thinking. The funny part is...now the Republicans will say they have even more reason for their clannish distrust and hatred of Muslims. And I am sure their solutions to this tragedy will be equally as hateful and destructive...one or another form of bloody "an eye for an eye" multiplied a hundredfold. This kind of thinking is being caught up and carried away in a vicious cycle of violence. And what it has proven is nothing more than a self-fulfilling prophecy.    

Is this really the way you want to live??    

Is this the kind of world you want??    

We truly reap what we have sown.

Let's not be total hypocrites about it.
