I’ve taken a liking towards baking. The elderly couple I disposed of must have too, because their kitchen stores an abundance of flour, sugar, and eggs. Sometimes, I bring these ingredients upstairs into the bathtub and smother myself in them, pretending to be a rising cake.
Giddy emotions stir within me whenever I hear the timer go off. The intervals between each beep are always uniform, but more importantly, the beeping signifies the completion of a mouthwatering delacy. I often feel this giddiness when I disintegrate kingdoms and absorb them into my own. I feel the same giddiness now.
In my earlier blog post “Child’s Play,” I stated that “I’m ready to see some explosive fireworks.” Real fireworks are dazzling, but I obviously was talking about American nuclear weapons in the post. Well, instead of nuclear weapons, Americans are readying cluster bombs and antipersonnel land mines for future use! How exciting! I am proud of the United States for finally taking effective measures in establishing themselves as a nation not to be fucked with.
The article here talks about how 160 countries world-wide have banned these weapons which does not include the United States. The reasons those countries have banned these weapons are because they are “deadly explosives known for maiming and killing civilians long after the fighting ended.” What a terribly stupid concern. Who cares? War is relentless, and civilian lives must be lost in order for war to be won. In fact, in Mongolia, there was no such thing as a civilian population. War required every person’s dedication. You were either a soldier or somehow supporting our soldiers.
I imagine a society where there exists a civilian population. I find it absolutely disgusting that this civilian population would dare ask cluster bombs or landmines to cease to exist in order to protect their own livelihood when soldiers are on the battlefield sacrificing their lives day after day! These civilians are blessed with the privilege to live because of these noble soldiers! I find the concept of giving a single damn to civilians ridiculous. They contribute nothing to the war effort, yet continue to exist, depleting valuable resources that could be given to soldiers. How pathetic! If anything, nations should be placing landmines in their own peoples’ homes. That will motivate them to be useful.
After the incident of Iran bombing a United States base, I was beginning to think Trump was nothing more than a joke. How could someone preach “Make America Great Again” when they tolerate such bombing from Iran? However, the “Trump administration’s abolishment of past policies that limited the development and use of [cluster bombs and landmines]” definitely has altered my view of Trump. I find him a more fear-provoking leader and much more admirable. The United States under the Trump administration is beginning to transform into something more threatening, and I could not be more supportive.
Perhaps I should run for the 2020 election; the modern world may view my ancient techniques as appealing. One obstacle would be that I’m not an American born citizen…
I may have to forge my citizenship just as Obama did.
