“The most prominent battles are taking place in Syria & Egypt; but they’re mainly just rhymes of every similar episode that has occurred throughout mankind’s history. What’s it all for? To control The State…the great weapon that one group of people can use against its neighbors and enemies; that legal use of force to get you (and your friends) what you want the easy way, instead of the voluntary and moral way. So powerful is this lust to control The State that, in Syria alone, 100,000+ have died in just the last several years. Imagine if the rest of life’s battles were conducted in the same manner….”
