[From the Author of “Poems by Kolki –
Absolutely Humane”, a recipe for better world]
Betrayal
(Dedicated to a conscious compassionate sustainable civilized world – Deepak Sarkar, www.kolki.com)
[We must ask why nations ignore massive corporate layoffs yet so eager to save few baby seal killing or logging jobs. Kolki]
When loggers’ logging resemble killing
fields -
Authorities in fisheries give license to kill baby seals!
Miners-Promoters destroy natural landscapes for quick
profits!
Governments enact terrorism denying
detainee’s right to speak!
Judges silence defendant banning testimony from public -
Silence is consent equates to betrayal!
When occupying military kill
pregnant women in labour!
Pre-emptive
strikes destroy
sleepy homes at peace afar!
Bulldozers level villages bewildering
citizens in terror!
Tax money builds deadly
weapons creating homeless
and hunger!
Silence is consent equates to betrayal!
When governments terrorise people to join crusades!
Media spreads Pandemic
rumours hiding germ
warfare secret!
Military analysts justify killings as co-lateral
damages!
Genetically modified seeds threaten pristine
evolutionary process!
Silence is consent equates to betrayal!
When NATO forces kill civilians just speculating as militants!
UN sanctions punish countries with no record of
aggression!
Defence Ministers ban coverage of soldiers
fallen in distant mission!
Administrations guard
terrorism opposing
open public investigation!
Silence is consent equates to betrayal!
The following are the country-by-country seal skin export statistics from Industry Canada . The numbers are the "raw" seal skin exports in Canadian dollars.
