“He’s a real nowhere man,
Sitting in his Nowhere Land
Making all his nowhere plansFor nobody.”
The Syrian people are being butchered every day and all the outstanding members of the UN community can do, is have meeting after meeting after meeting and giving the world a whole lot of lip service while thousands are being killed by a mad dictator and his military.
This of course is nothing new. The lessons of History are there for all to
see…but like the “Nowhere Man”
“He’s as blind as he can be, Just sees what he wants to see,
Nowhere Man can you see me at all?”
Since the UN seem to be suffering from old age dementia and geopolitical impotence, allow me to point out to you some spine chilling facts to remind you of how such indecisiveness by the International Community can result in mass killings and massacres by insane men like Bashar al Assad and the like.
I hope the following genocides can shine some
light on events to come in Syria and make you stop and think if only
for a brief moment, what the Syrian people are faced with.
