Events are exacerbating in our homeland, and nobody seems to relent to solve our problems. Politicians, people ,are getting assassinated, and our people won't unite to resolve their differences. Shame to a nation that is divided into many sects, and every sect acts as he represents the whole nation. Shame to a nation that is divided into two groups. One group received the conquers by beating the drums, and the other group beats the drums whenever the conquers depart the country. Shame to a nation that hates oppression in her slumber, and accepts it in her awakening. Shame to a nation that bury her citizens after being assassinated as martyr for no cause or belief, and raises her voice only behind their coffins, and prides itself only in the cemetery. Shame to a nation that does not revolt until her neck is placed on the scaffold. …show more content…
Shame to a nation that is divided into two halves, one half in loyal to their country, and the other half is a traitor loyal to a country abroad. Shame to a nation that its people does not reciprocate with each other for the sake and the benefit of the whole country. Shame to a nation that their brave men, educators, innovators, etc. Are leaving their abode for lack of security, and cannot get a eulogy in their homeland. Shame to a nation that has so many leaders, and each one of them thinks he represents all the people. Shame to a nation that its leaders are trying to obliterate each other. Shame to a nation that some of their leaders are unscrupulous, and are in a decadence, and redundant for void cause. Shame to a nation where their brave politicians are being assassinated, and what is left over of them are trying to avoid from being butchered, and the traitors are roaming around freely in the country. Shame to a nation that has so many sects, but truly none of them acts in a religious
A feeling of pride humans feel for the country they stand for is naturally embedded into mankind's hearts and minds. “War is attractive to young men who know nothing about it, but we had also been seduced into uniform by Kennedy’s challenge to “ask what you can do for your country” (Source E). The attraction ‘young men’ feel towards war appeals to the sense of pride towards their country, the atmosphere that is created builds a sense of inexorable war. This is because sentiments mankind feels when fighting a war does play a role in the need to fulfill their need to feel pride within themselves and their own
It revealed that if you’re not loyal to this country than the majority feels that you don’t belong.
Thousands of people have shed blood on unfamiliar territory; staining the foreign land with the American flag.
We could’ve overthrown him; we could’ve ended his oppressing reign. But, instead, we choose the easiest path, ignorance- and I say this with great shame and anger. Unfortunately, this is only one of many dark parts of our nation’s
Imagine: Everyday thousands of people get killed in a war no-one asked for. Friends and family are send to a horrible place with little chance you’ll ever see them again. This war, a useless and disgusting war started without any reasons and only goes on because the leaders of your country are too proud to make it end.
Shame. That feeling of humiliation or distress that everyone experiences at least once in their life. Shame is one of those feelings that lies deep inside oneself, and the prospect of revealing that shame is cause for anxiety as the fear of others’ opinions chokes any thought of showing someone. Shame is a common prohibitor of progress, whether that progress is educational or personal does not matter, as long as one can learn to overcome the obstacles presented. In dealing with this, society should take a leap over their metaphorical hurdles for personal and communal development. Shame can turn into compassion or respect which can morph into something greater than one person alone. Call it a learning experience, if you will. One cannot
Over thousands of years there have been hundreds of wars, many have had great casualties, both soldiers and civilians. The soldiers died fighting on the front line facing bullets or swords, but the civilians, normal people doing their daily business died in random bombings or mortar blasts, hardly fair as they hadn't signed on for a war hoping there name would be remembered through the ages, they just humbly went about their own business but paid their lives just for our mistakes. What gives us the right to deprive people of their dearly loved brother, mother or husband just because we can't admit our own mistakes? Humans are quick to blame others but slow to admit defeat or say yes I have made a mistake and when they finally do give in it is usually after the tragedy. Furthermore give it fifty years and someone will make the exact same mistake, wasting precious time and leading to consequences that should only have to be faced once.
“I like to see a man proud of the place in which he lives. I like to see a man live so that his place will be proud of him.” That is a quote from Abraham Lincoln and it is a forgotten concept in our culture today. Too many people today feel that they are entitled to something, and are asking, “What is the country doing for me,” instead of, “What am I doing for my country?”. We have a responsibility to our country to obey her laws, vote for her leaders, and do what is right, not according to the majority populous, but what has been commanded to me by my God.
man to be a King of such a place? All politicians who run for a position, saying or hiding this,
The comments between the two groups even referenced the Holy War because both sides believed that this was because of religion. This is a tremendous issue because it shows that history is going to continually repeat itself unless us as a country decide that we want let a group of peoples beliefs determine what the country must do because that will only result in a great conflict that will be remembered as a pointless feud caused by nothing by utter disdain towards people with different beliefs. This mindset determines how the rest of the world will view us as well as how the citizens of the country view the country as well.
Think back to the example previously mentioned, Black Friday. Without a reason to express shame, there would be no Black Friday. People would not be out, throwing themselves at perishable objects, just to get ‘ahead’ in life. Additionally, people also would not
It is no secret that religious backgrounds play a significant role in politics. The idea of a secular government is a common thought, but the reality is that each country is based on religious beliefs—morals. The United States of America and Europe, though they claim to be secular, clearly derive their laws and ideals from that of Christianity. Islamic countries are controlled primarily by Sharia Law, which is obviously derived from Islam. The Jewish nation has strived for an extremely long time to form their own state in order to practice their own beliefs on their own turf with their own politics. Religions long for politics to reflect them, and politics long for religious ideals to follow, whether they wish to admit it or not. Religion
When nation behaves as ‘chosen by God’ arrogantly insisting that its, culture, legislation, political & social order, economy and religious outlook is supreme to others, and praises & worships itself on the expense of the others, ‘logically’ it finds no room for humbleness. It forgets the crucial fact that none came to this world in order to be ‘served’ as a ‘master’. PRIDE MUST FALL! Otherwise, a nation is on the course of mass suffering and digging an own grave.
We don’t have shame or don’t think for the lives of others because we harm them in such a way as if they don’t live with us they are not part of us and we destroy our morals and respect by fighting our brothers and sister instead of fighting the problems that we are facing in the country.
A girl stands at the gate of the happiest place in the world. For some people, this place is a theme park, like Disneyland or Universal Studios, but for her, it is her home country. Completely in awe at its beauty, its magic, and its history, knowing she cannot go in, she is standing on the border of Iran. Fearing for their lives, her family left Iran during the Islamic Revolution. They will never be able to return, for fear that the government will imprison and execute them for treason. The place this girl grew up in, the home she loved, no longer exists – what stands there now is a war-torn facade of what used to be. She can stand on the mountaintop and gaze at its beauty, but she cannot go inside. As in this example, after civil unrest, war, and revolution, people sometimes live in exile. They fear for their lives because their lives appear to not mean anything to their government. They will be able to watch their native land change, for better or for worse, but they will not be able to affect or experience it firsthand. Fortunately, countries usually change for the better. Transitional justice mechanisms, the steps that a government will take to democratically recognize human rights violations and pay tribute to the victims of such violence, help to usher in a more just future. South Africa successfully used several mechanisms to transition from apartheid to democracy; Iran’s futile attempt to transform from an out-of-touch monarchy to an oppressive democracy only
