Turning off the Hot by Larry John
A friend asked me today…When do you think the U.S. War on Terrorism will be over? Well…this is the way I see it….I believe this war on terrorism will be over when HATE ends. That, of course, will be over when we run out of air to breathe. The fact is that we have now declared war on HATE. How silly is that? To me that is like declaring war on HOT. We can buy air conditioners to cool us off a little….but HOT will continue to be. And as soon as the nation’s air conditioner or financial aid is turned off…HATE is back. So, we have learned as a nation that we have to BUY love and devotion. This war against terrorism, by definition, can NEVER end. We will always HATE those who don’t agree with us. Hate can only end when we refuse to hate. War can only end when we refuse to war. But that will take a higher degree of intelligence. It is easier and faster to KILL than to think, talk, and agree…and maybe that is impossible. Think about it.
