MPs revolt and resign. citizens wave banners and display badges. nations call for time and understanding. yet somewhere in the not too distant future, it seems that innocent people will die. some for their country. some innocent bystanders. maybe he should be stopped. maybe too many people are already desperate and dying. but is this really the only way? is it really possible or even necessary to attain peace through conflict? my instinct says no. but then, maybe that's why i'm not the leader of a nation. my heart goes out to the scared and the brave.
