17 people died after a US military drone-attack in Pakistan. Among them 4 civilians"
"Obama is officially the drone king"
"Earlier this morning we were lucky. The leader of Al Qaida in the arabian Peninsula was killed in Jemen."
"Pre 9/11 there was one Suicide Bomb Attack inside Pakistan ---- Do you know how many they have been since from 2007 to 2012? 352. 352.
I still remember, when I was young, they tought me the "paternoster".
I rather watched Ninja Turtles, Cowabunga.
I thought: OK, so there's a man in the sky.
That sees everything, finds sins and blemish.
The good ones go to paradise, bad ones go to hell.
A sinister place with lava, sulphuric and loads of debris.
I haven't been baptised, but I just accepted all that.
"It's gotta be true, after all everyone believes that here".
Then puberty arrived, and the first doubts, too.
Was asking myself, why I'm on this planet.
"What's the sense of life? Where was God when I was suffering?
It's all bollocks, some shite state-conspiracy"
I was the one that always interrupted
the teacher in the religion lesson, and emphasized his mistakes.
I wanted to imprint everybody my disbelief.
It was no more than vanity, that I was proud of.
Amen, As-salamu alaykum and Schalom.
Humans never won a war, yet.
Forget the hatred, only hope matters (or counts).
I'm praying for peace, for God and the earth.
Amen, As-salamu alaykum and Schalom.
Humans never won a war, yet.
Forget the hatred, only hope matters.
I'm praying for peace, for God and the earth.
Time went by and I grew up.
My arrogance vanished, as I started realising.
Religion ain't the evil in this world,
only the wrong prophets that celebrate themselves as saviors or heroes.
Religions as instruments for alleged values.
Jews, Christians, Muslims, share & reign.
When 3 people quarrel, a fourth rejoices.
If the sheep aint standing close to each other, the sheperd rejoices.
And yet Religion is a guide, for those who don't have one.
It can get criminals back on the straight and narrow,
cause they feel the love and warmth in their hearts.
A signpost, for human souls.
But be carefull, if it gets into the wrong hands
Amen, As-salamu alaykum and Schalom.
Humans never won a war, yet.
Forget the hatred, only hope matters.
I'm praying for peace, for God and the earth.
Amen, As-salamu alaykum and Schalom.
Humans never won a war, yet.
Forget the hatred, only hope matters.
I'm praying for peace, for God and the earth.
And drones are flying again over Yemen, Somalia and Pakistan,
Iraq, Afghanistan, for the so called war on terrorism
on the hunt for Taliban. USA, Superpower ruthless punisher.
Little Ibrahim, 13 years old from Sanaa,
later on a wedding, with his class-mate.
He didn't have something to do with wars or politics,
as suddently a bomb fell into the weddingparty.
And his house was in flames,
his mother, bathed in blood, was shouting his name.
He held her tight, when he ran to the garden,
and vowed vegeance, as she died in his arms.
And I wonder if there's a reason,
that drones have the shape of a cross.
It's a shame that in the papers you ain't told
that the war on terrorism only fuels terrorism.
Now I'm here, thinking about religion.
Are they a curse or a blessing for the human welfare?
But if God is our father, peace would have to guide us,
Wich father would be happy if his children arearguing (fighting)?
Amen, As-salamu alaykum and Schalom.
Humans never won a war, yet.
Forget the hatred, only hope matters.
I'm praying for peace, for God and the earth.
Amen, As-salamu alaykum and Schalom.
