Heinous crime

I have just finished reading an article which is crucially involved with the killing of at least fifteen high school students and teachers at columbine high school in Littleton.

Colorado has left America stunned and sickened. Scenes of wounded youth, images of terrified young girls describing how students around them were systematically murdered in a school library. All of this provokes horror, sadness and what is more anger.

So many questions still live unanswered, that is, can anyone with a functioning brain or eyes continue to argue at this point that these terrible incidents are not expressions of profound social tendencies? What is going on in that country?

In my view, I think that this irrational reaction taking into consideration this macabre episode is crucially involved with the violence that the US is presently unleashing on the world.

At this age of high-tech wars, the pentagon conducts wars which allow the US military to kill thousands of innocents people at random; what is more the media packages the war as entertainment without real consequence- at least for Americans.

It is widely recognised that without any reasonable explanation the American military is dropping bombs and missiles against Iraq which have come under attack in recent months. US forces burst into a country and start shooting it up.

To sump up, each international horror resembles a crime scene in which American fingerprints are inevitably found
