MAN'S INHUMANITY TO MAN: Can't go on. No, it can't go on!

When I see all the death and destruction taking place in the Israeli and Hizbulla crisis, I can't help but reflect back on the lyrics of the song for which this posting bears its title, Man's Inhumanity to Man (MITM), which definitely captures the sign of the times. And it is quite unfortunate there is no indication of things getting better all across the globe. From Sri Lanka to Cheneya, Philippines to the Congo, and from Iraq to Mexico there are atrocities being committed. The song, MITM, was written and performed by a friend of mine, Freddy "C" Concepcion. I use the images to illustrate the story the lyrics or song describes..
--LYRICS TO MAN'S INHUMANITY TO MAN--
Man's inhumanity to man, can't go on.No it can't go on no more !
Man's inhumanity to man, can't go on. No it can't go on no more!
Since the beginning of time, man has killed his own kind!
A good reason one cannot find, only love can stop it on time now!
What are we going to do, to make this dream of peace come true?
It's up to me and you, to do what our leaders will not do!
Somewhere a child is crying, somewhere a child is dying! Somewhere a family doesn't have enough food to eat. No, no no!
Somewhere a family is living outside, outside in the cold streets!
What are we going to do, to make this dream of peace come true?
It's up to me and you, to do what our leaders will not do!
Man's inhumanity to man, can't go on. No it can't go on no more!
Man's inhumanity to man. No it can't go on no more!

You observations are correct Freddy "C". Well said. No doubt, MITM can't g on, and it shouldn't. But it does. When will man began to look into the very depths of his mortal soul and conduct an indepth comprehensive self-introspection in an attempt to understand just what negative forces motivate him to reap such atrocious havoc upon his brothers and sisters and their sons and daughters?
Our leaders from all seven continents should make an unprecedented proclamation stating: Let's stop the killing! Let's learn to live in this world together! As leaders, we owe that to our brothers and sisters, and to mankind as a whole. Let's start now, indivdually and collectively. Who will be the first to stop MITM?
