Never again war
N ever again deliberate misinformation
N  ever again the death of innocent children, patients, workers
N    ever again bombs twisting and mangling the bodies of the "less developed" countries
N     ever again lessons learned decades after the fact
N      ever again nation building
N       ever again us against them
N        ever again occupations, demonstrations, and repeated continuations
N         ever again war for profit and "peace" and politics
N
ever again war
