Re: Murderous Death: getting killed, striving for rights of others
Philosophy of murder speaks the language of inhumanity, a language that is soaked in the lymphatic of corruption, vested interests and treachery. We live in a world where gain of one man is loss of another; we erect citadel of our achievements on a pile of dead souls. Every foot that we put forward with a bad intention lands on a chest of a vulnerable.
Historically human blood has served as nectar for political gain; the irony is reflected in a fact that manifestation of power and might is attributed to mound of skull an emperor would grow. A killer of million is a king always, today and day before. Blood has never proved to be thicker than water when it comes to throne, the crown of power has a jinx that dissipates every emotion of affinity, love, humanity and social justice.
Politics is a game that follows no ethics, all those involved in it has to play in the field darkened with mistrust and deception. Unfortunately this jungle gym is the selection of the players themselves. Seeds of allegation grow allegation alone, yet one who is busy cursing others considers himself safe till his own feet touch the stink of rebut. From a mole to a mountain, it takes nothing but one big mouth and our politics has abundance of them. One can not justify the unjust in maligning someone, yet this abnormal practice is so scopic.
What makes us all vulnerable is certainty of death, yet the uncertainty in death is cause of fear that runs in our blood. A fear that makes us either an angel or a devil. The fact that we are mortal being gives rise to a lust to achieve every thing quickly, even if the achievement devastates every norm of social justice. Lives of all those engaged in the struggle of power are one step away from power or plight, misery or might, triumph or a tragedy.

how ironic is social justice that in the end, it is unjust to those who fight for it all long their life?
is it just that a person's life is reduced to false allegations and accusations of being hungry for power or fame from world's people, whereas amongst the very crowd of the person's supporters, the person is brutally murdered?
what would philosophy have to offer, regarding the unexpected and sudden brutal end of a life?
is death that uncertain in its certainty?
or the cycle of public life is ultimately bound to a tragic loss of life?
what do the by standers, who are not guilty of committing the murder, have to learn from this?
what does it leave the rest of the revolt with?
is such an end to life, at all, is of utility to advance the goals?
does this mean, that for a leading person, social and national existence is heavy with risks of end to life?
share your thoughts if you like.
