War - Lydia

WAR


For years wars have been hated: hated as much as we hate slavery.
Men marching , taking over countries like a tsunami destroying a city.

Whatever the result , ever war in history takes lives and gives none , causes damage and destruction. It forces people to start their lives all over , in a different way.

People , young and old , children , adults , fighting to protect the country. They knew that they were fighting for their future , for their next generation , for their own lives. Are we sure that wars are right for all of us?

In my opinion , it takes great bravery and courage to go out there and fight for lives. For other lives. When faced with people dressed in camouflage , holding guns , helmets balnced on their heads , strapped around their chins , our general reaction is to freeze:mentally stop . But not in the war . Bomb shells like tigers pounce on the enemy .

So , how does our generation decide whether war is evil , and should be no more . Or they are necessary , and keep the world busy and active . But instead of asking that question , over and over again , shouldn't we ask the question: what other options are there?
