Alls fair in war and WAR??

The gruesome civil war that has been raging in the country for close to three decades has left it battle scarred and on the verge of an inevitable economic collapse. Even a layman is notoriously familiar with the root cause of this war, but the continuity of it, I’m certain, eludes the most learned.

If we take a look at the history of the world, almost every country has faced similar struggles in some point in time. But the countries, which have found a way around these differences, and learnt means of working together, have been able to build a better world for them and future generations to come.

I ask you why this country cannot achieve a similar feat. If you look in to the lives of the common man, it’s apparent that, the ‘differences’ that has divided this country has already been put aside. People from all walks of life, in spite of their social or religious circles, have learnt to coexist in relative peace and harmony.

Over the years thousands have lost their lives, soldiers in the heat of battle and civilians as collateral. How many more have to die for a ‘cause’ that has virtually ceased to exist.
