alea iacta est
The 11th september 2008 was the 7th anniversary of the cruel terrorist attacks in the USA. They were the start of the american fear against the middle east. On the 20th march 2003 the USA and England attacked Iraq. This was the start of a war without any justifications. Nobody wanted it. But the fear was stronger than the prudence. I was also against it. Novadays the election in the USA is near. A lot of people are speaking of the total withdrawal of troups as fast as possible. But this would be a great failure. Nothing is more dangerous than a abandoned nation. This failure was made once. After Afghanistan defeated Russia the USA "forgot" to keep their promises (build up the land, money for the people,...). This is one fact why 9/11 happened. I'm against war. But the die is cast (in german we say the die is fallen). There is no way back. The USA and their allies have to stay till everything is done. Or new hate is seeded were we already have enough of it. Why this picture: =aksdareflection started on DeviantArt a challenge (concept + life with a dice ore die). The first thing i thought about was "alea iacta est" and the second was the political situation in the near future (new president in the USA). The die are showing the date of invasion (20.03.2003 (XX is the roman 20)) and the amount of occupation zones (4).

 reports, 1d 2h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on.

"Great works are performed, not by strength, but by perseverance."
Quote From Samuel Johnson | [link] |
I must say that I was surprised when I heard on the news that it has been 7 years since 9/11. I remember it like it was yesterday. The world and the way we live has really changed because of it.

Calm down. Take a break. Eat a cookie.
It's also strange to me that someday this war will be just another one of many in school books and Earth's history.
This is an photo that definitively makes you thing about things that are happening around you. Compliments.
