For Those Who Cannot Speak: The Criminal Futility of War

By Michael Walsh

It is universally recognised that 98 percent of people are opposed to war. Conflict between peoples never happens. Those with an interest in conflict, the 2 percent, create conditions for war. Then, by coercion, accompanied by lies, and with appeals to basic instincts, the tail wags the reluctant dog. Pacifists, like Michael Walsh, do not believe it has to be that way. Wars have scarred civilisations for centuries and achieved nothing. On the other hand, progress through peaceful dialogue and trade has shown the greatest advances in the history of mankind. No European country has recovered from the conflicts of the 20th Century; no peoples benefited from its cataclysmic wars. They are still recovering.Peace brings with it a bounty of prosperity; conflict leaves nations prostrate and devastated. It takes decades, often centuries, to achieve the standards that preceded war.Michael Walsh poetry, verse, sentiment and images brings into stark relief the futility of war.
