What a Spin?

What a spin?
 
Tick Tock!   Tick Tock! The clock is ticking.

The war drums are drumming and Apaches in the air.
 

All the battleships are lined up. Army is on the move all

around the enemy country. But then the “Coalition of the Willing”

is spinning the wheels. The newly minted Super Power is huffing

and puffing but alas! Cannot make up its mind as looking for

some other ragtag army (like in Afghanistan) to carry the burden.


The United Nations, NATO and EU are the first victims while the   dictator is having a chuckle! What a predicament!


The terrorists are gathering all over or that”™s how it seems!

The borders around the Super Power are controlled like never before

and duct tapes and plastic sheeting are coming to the rescue.  

Are Americans ready to carry the burden single-handedly to remove this maniacal dictator?
France, Germany and Belgium joined by likes of Russia and China
are spinning for peace. This is all and good but who is hearing the anguish nd cry of Shias & Kurds and other Iraqis who have seen

no peace but torture and pain from this dictator.


Tick Tock!   Tick Tock! The clock is ticking.

The war drums are drumming and Apaches in the air.  

The world seems in derision and a torturous spin!
