And as billions of people worldwide wait, pray and hope for WORLD PEACE some are busy selling and exhibiting their military wares. All peace loving and law abiding citizens of the world can only wait, pray and hope where in the world will PEACE be sold too. Billions await and hope that WORLD PEACE can still be attained and will still be FREE. But since PEACE seems to be so elusive, are we to set our minds that we all need to be prepared and gear up for the next battle just to be able to really fight for PEACE. Is the world gearing up for world battles that even plain civilian citizens need these battlegears as immediate protection? Do we need to replace our wallpapers with images of suicide bombers and terrorists and start target shooting practice even in our dreams? Will the next car model be an APC look-a-alike or a missile blaster? Or maybe we need to stack up our closets with battle drone outfits so that we could blast off from our windows and blow everything suspicious as targets?
