Hatred has plagued man since we wore skins of fur
Beating our enemies with stick and stone.
History has proven what we refuse to learn
As the seeds of hate by conflict are sown.
It's a fact, hate has been caused by religion
Or by those of different pigment of skin.
It's also a fact it's mostly jealousy
Mixed with the stupidity of men.
Thank heaven for soldiers who shield and protect
Freedom to worship, love, speak and succeed.
We must use their courage to achieve world peace
As the enemies of liberty broadcast their seed.
Our world has always had its tests
To expose who to follow, fear or fight.
The better we serve the freedom of others
The better we sleep, love and teach what’s right.

So very nice of you to have analysed the situation arising out of Paris 11/13, its root cause hatred and the things could be changed. I agree with you when you propose a strategy: The better we serve the freedom of others The better we sleep, love and teach what’s right.
