The Angel of the war

The Invisible Angel of War
This invisible angel, dressed in camouflage, has been on the news quite often, raising concerns about human greed and the relentless drive for dominance. The symphony of drones and explosions guides this angel in a country where oil leaks, minerals glitter, greed, and the ambition to dominate pollute the air.
Our angel is different from the other angels. You will recognize her, because she descends with gifts wrapped with the ribbons “defensive aid”.
You can even listen to the lullaby she is singing:
“I am here for the sake of humanity.”
She mourns for the children — between the meetings about upcoming attacks, military plans, and strategies.
She mourns for peace, she prays for unity, but only after she has managed to divide the regions efficiently.
Her partners share her mourn at press conferences and across media — right after they have completed their logistics invoice.
Just like in cinema, with popcorn in their hands, they watch but they do not see the lost lives, the stolen tomorrows.
These are not their film stars — they just play secondary roles.
And when, at the end of the film, the credits roll, they zoom out to read whether dividends are received.
And when they are, they pray for the Angel of War, because only thanks to her:
- they get richer
- more powerful
- and more dominant
Let’s Get to Know Our Angel Closer
Do you know what languages she speaks?
She speaks the language of international law and human kindness — and she is fluent in it.
She always posts on social media with hashtags like:
#Freedom
#HumanRights
#Humanity
#Democracy
_(All trademarked.)_
She makes miracles — but the locals do not see them.
They are so ungrateful:
She brings security, but they mourn for the twisted fates.
She brings jobs, but they mourn for abandoned dreams.
You will know when she leaves.
Her footprints are traceable:
- mass graves
- scorched soil
- and freshly signed contracts that will monetize the ashes.
