Reckon why those groups with enough strength to vie for power in most of the countries in the middle east are clearly populated by murderous sub-humans? As I'm writing this...I'm thinking, wait a second Ike, don't be so hard on the Arabs. No different in eastern Europe...witness the latest in Crimea and it's precursors in Croatia, Bosnia, Kosovo. Then I thought...Africa? Asia? What about the slaughter of native peoples in the Americas...post Civil War USA.
So I went for a look and found a really good Wikipedia on ethnic cleansing. When you put it all together it sends a real message: Mankind is the missing link between apes and humans. (And it's a significant insult to apes.)
I saw this picture of the 1988 Halabja gas attack on the above wiki page:
My immediate emotional reaction was feeling really bad for the cat. Whenever I see photos of this sort of carnage I always feel way, way...way worse for the dead beasts and dead children. They're the only true innocents. Adults, whoever they are, whatever their standing, rich or poor, light skinned/dark skinned, extra eye fold/no extra eye fold, christian/muslim/hindu/wiccan... the adults, all of them always have some sort of card in the game.
