“You gotta rescue peace from the states,
For no state will ever organize peace.
No matter their lies of peace and harmony,
Inside, all states are merchants of malice.”

“When liberty is branded terrorism,
And terrorism is declared self defense,
Ceasefire is vetoed as taboo,
Geopolitics is fancy talk for arms race.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Bulletproof Backbone: Injustice Not Allowed on My Watch

“Politicians don't have race, politicians don't have religion, politicians don't have nationality. You may think, this is a good thing - well, in this case, it's not. You know why? Because their race is self-interest - their religion is self-interest - their nationality is self-interest. Politicians can be white, black, brown or martian - but once a moron, always a moron. Some monkeys are white, some monkeys are colored, but inside they are not white or colored - they are politicians - which means, they are all monkeys.

And the exception to this norm often comes from not so popular parts of the world - for example, South Africa. Which only proves that, you don't need to be a so-called geopolitical superpower to do what's right - you don't have to be a superpower to be a peacemaker. In fact in most cases, the so-called superpowers are the most morally bankrupt states in the world. Because guess what - governments don't exist to do the right thing, governments exist to do whatever keeps them in power. And the day the politics of self-interest comes to an end, there will be no longer any need for activists, humanitarians and reformers.”

“Peace is a crime against state, that's
why patriotism is a glorified quality.
More patriotic the citizens of a nation,
less likely they'll question warmongery.”

“Trenches don't have a right side and wrong side, they only have one side, the side of dogma and lies. Asses to asses, cheek to cheek, apes laud the apes, declaring true apehood through their half-open flies.”

“Kill one, it's murder - kill in bulk, it's patriotism.”

“Apes in pulpits and parliament halls,
chanting bruality as song of the braves -
apes who crave war to feel worthy,
find honor in pinning medals on graves.”
― Abhijit Naskar, The God Sonnets: Naskar Art of Theology

“There is negotiated peace. There is no such thing as a negotiated war. War comes, like it or not, when one side declares it. No one that declares war on you is asking for your consent.”
― A.E. Samaan

“Peace requires agreement. War requires only one side to decide. No one asks permission to attack.”
― A.E. Samaan

“In the opera of war, peace is fugitive.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Iftar-e Insaniyat: The First Supper

“Fugitive Peace (Sonnet 2219)

In the opera of war, peace is fugitive -
thinking soldiers are no good to state,
either you kill without question, and grab
your medal, or get discharged dishonorably.

Thinking citizens are no good to democracy,
either you obey blind or be branded a terrorist.
Either you hold your mouth, mind and backbone,
or be jailed as an anarchist.

If you want to be an actor,
don't go to film school,
become an intern to some politician.
Some say secularism is in their blood,
some say liberty, all the while being
the posterboys of persecution.

No politician will prioritize peace,
if they did, they would be out of business.
War is the currency of political power -
abandon fanaticism, and politicians go extinct.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Iftar-e Insaniyat: The First Supper

“Politicians are professional gaslighters, they gaslight people against people, neighbor against neighbor, brother against brother, humanity against humanity - that's how they stay in business. And the fact that we've evolved from the apes, doesn't help much - our jungle instincts of tribalism don't need much coaxing to be blown into fully fledged war, between cultures, between religions, between nations.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Iftar-e Insaniyat: The First Supper

“It's interesting, how every politician starts a conversation with the talk of peace, then immediately shifts to investing more in fighter jets, tanks, rifles and warheads!”
― Abhijit Naskar, Iftar-e Insaniyat: The First Supper

“Military is the ultimate failure of education, true education shapes minds into instrument of peace, not pawns of legal persecution and terrorism.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Iftar-e Insaniyat: The First Supper

“In English we say:
if you want peace, prepare for war.
In Naskarian we say:
if you want peace, prepare for education.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Kral Fakir: When Calls The Kainat

“Be The Unpatriot (Naskaristana 2803)

One soldier's medal is another soldier's widow,
one soldier's glory is another soldier's orphan.
One nation's victory is another nation's mourning,
one family's felicitation is another family's trauma.

Soldiers pay the price, civilians pay the price, but
one particular creature always comes out with a profit,
it's the politicians - there's a fortune in warmongering,
if they can just sell fear in the name of patriotic duty.

So here I am, the idiot earthling,
begging you on my knees - grow up,
be human enough to be the unpatriot,
be a stain upon the nation's flag.

If your corpse can be covered with just one flag,
it's a sacrifice wasted in political theatre -
when nations join hands to honor your fall,
know that you've finally ascended human.”
