Betrayal on a Massive Scale

Daily news reporting people being trampled to death in a desperate attempt to leave their country.

Finger pointing combination

everyone blaming each other

heartbreak tidal wave

fleeing no where to go

worthless papers checked

lies crumble into themselves

treachery watches waiting

eventually broken promises depart.

 

manmade human misery

I think your comment M.C makes us all think of why no one could have found a way or was it to be just left and not to be sorted out at all.

The individual tragedy amounts to a national tragedy.
Question - how did Afghanistan fail itself when given two
decades to stand together shoulder to shoulder against "the
usual suspects"? Where was their "Churchill" or "De Gaulle" to lead the way in a fractured tribal-tribute society? Or is the
place itself merely a sandpit of shifting dreams and aspirations?
