Will peace return?
Cantara Wali Ruhi, Dhaka
Nowadays people are being violent to each other. If this animosity does not stop, the world will be no longer worth living. One thing I can never understand why people can't live in peace, why people don't let others live in peace. Is there any answer? I wonder whether this world will ever become peaceful or not? I wonder......... Whenever something happens, everyone blames the Muslims before knowing the fact. Yes, it's true there are some Muslim extremists. At the same time its true that Muslims are being suppressed in many regions. Muslims are being killed, raped, humiliated. Nobody says humanity is being demeaned when Muslims die . I want to say that the conscientious among the Muslims cry for the people who died on 9/11 , we pray for their departed souls, and we hate those people who kill innocents. But how many conscientious people are there in the West who mourn the deaths in Iraq, Afghanistan and Chechnya? We are crying for the Russian tragedy but we are not crying for those innocent helpless people in Chechnya who are being liquidated. And after the hostage incident what will be their position in Russia? How will they be treated by the government? We call them bestial but we don't even bother to think what made them resort to terrorism. Still I hope for peace and guess time will come when people all over the world will acknowledge the truths.
