The Results of Poor Leaders

There is no shortage of garbage videos on social media, that were created by AI.

Yesterday, I saw a video of dead children being pulled out of bomb created rubble in Iran. The images were so disturbing because it was real. Recently, I have worked with children, and they don't understand war. Most adults don't understand it.

We have leaders who make decisions for us both locally and globally. Some of them are good. But others, keep making decisions that damage other people's lives, both locally and globally. These leaders like to talk about "necessary sacrifices," for a better future. Rarely, are these leaders personally experiencing the sacrifices they so matter-of-factly make speeches about.

When we have any say in who our leaders are, we need to carefully consider their motives, character, and policies. Most of all, we need to judge whether they can be trusted. Choosing leaders based on single issue criteria, leaves too much to chance. Power and money corrupts people. Prejudice and hate blinds people.

The casualties of questionable decisions may make some people pound their chests and say we are winning. But, it makes me feel like crying.

Anti-Hypocrisy Not Anti-Prayer
