‘One day, I’ll raise an army and start a war’

Don’t ask me whether this is my intention. Rather ask yourself, what would provoke you to such an action, or to sanction such action by otherson your behalf? What cause, what ideal, what belief might compel you to allow this? Could you conceive a justification for pre-emptive or retaliatory action, or default, which would directly or indirectly cause harm or suffering, born of a percieved neccesity; for self preservation, which favoured loved ones, protected your family, your friends, your community, your country, your race?

The innocence of Liberty is corrupted by blood.

I’ll show you how our humanity dies.
