No, it is not insane. All these deaths and destructions are for a reason, although committed by more than one faction, yet they all have one goal in mind, that is “Divide Iraq, give me my share, and get the hell out of my area”.
The Sunnies want part of Iraq. The Shi’as want part of Iraq. The Kurds want part of Iraq. The Assyrians want part of Iraq. So on and so on. However, they all want the rich part of Iraq; and no one is willing to give an inch of their demands, like there is no tomorrow. Not knowing that they all are nothing but a bunch of pathetic losers, and there will be no winner no matter how long this thing drags on.
Some claim to be the top of line democratic sector; others want to drag the country and its people back to the dark ages in the name of religion, vainly Islam in particular (knowing that the card of religion gives the strongest hand in the game).
Throughout history it has always been the case that one side of the feudists controls the rest, regardless of the method (harsh or not). Therefore democracy never existed, and it will never exist except on paper and in conversations. No country ever had, nor will have a democratic government. With Adam & Eve disrespecting Gods simplest rule they started a journey of no return. Humans these days disobey not only all the guidance rules that the mighty God furnished us with, but they engineered more ways to create death and destruction.
Sometimes I feel like Gad has abandoned “Project Human” and wants nothing to do with us anymore; not because we are not loved by our creator, but because we abandoned everything God created us for, not to mention rejecting everything he offered us to have if we only do one thing.
