Will there ever be Peace? I think not.

War or Peace?









Cambodian soldiers are silhouetted at dusk while standing on the crest of the Chuor Phnom Dangkrek Mountain, the site of the 900-year-old disputed Preah Vihear temple October 16, 2008. Thai and Cambodian army commanders ended five hours of talks on Thursday with no agreement to withdraw their forces after heavy fighting near the temple killed two Cambodian soldiers. The International Court of Justice awarded it to Cambodia in 1962, but the court failed to determine the ownership of 1.8 square miles (4.6 sq km) of scrub next to the Hindu ruins, a ruling that has rankled with Thais ever since.

To be honest, Katyzzz.

Human being is a very brutal and selfish creature in the very beginning, but there is also a light-hearted and generous characteristics lying deep inside our heart...

Although it's hard to stop the fights and conflicts immediately, but everything will come to the end in the not too distance future...

Wilson, I was thinking globally and this was just one instance, I wish I had your faith, there are many good people in the world who do have feelings of goodness in their hearts, but there are also some of the others and they always seem to be wanting war however trivial the dispute seems to us, and their religious beliefs seem to have a profound influence on them wanting to protect what they perceive as their own. Both sides can't be right, often the truth lies somewhere in between but not sufficient to prevent their desire to fight to protect and seize what they think is theirs. This is just a comparatively small instance but still the weapons come out.

I hope what you feel in your heart does in fact come about.

Wel, Katyzzz I agreed with your opinion, as instead of white and black, there is still a "Grey" territory that lying in the middle of them...
