WAR

I have no idea if world peace is possible.
Revenge is a bad idea.
Maybe war can stop.
People don't lose their lives for America.
They lose them for revenge.
So America, do you want revenge or do you
want life?
You need to decide now.
Presidents want revenge.
I want life.
I'm not anything like a president.
Are you?
