Is war the only solution?



IS WAR THE ONLY SOLUTION?
Is war the only solution?
No, not there are many other ways
Then, why do our leaders not try those?
Only because they are afraid of losing power
That they ultimately lose in case of war
But alas! They not only lose power
But their peoples' lives as well
To walk on the red carpet of peoples' blood
The most inhuman act to save their rule
The history has a thousand stories
Of bloodshed and downfall of the dictators
Who ruled the land but not the hearts
Couldn't they choose some other way
And let the people enjoy and rule
