Children Voice on Politics



Children were wondering how a country can have internal conflicts. Conventionally children believe a country needs another country to have a conflict and not otherwise.

These voices of children shows how we are losing our wisdom, because children think with simple and innocents minds which explain why a lot of things happening in this world don't make sense and they are complicated with unwise chooses. It will reach a point even a newly born baby will laugh at us.

Take a good example of Libya. Watching CNN and seeing all those news about locals fighting their 42years reigning president didn't make any sense to them. By being a ruler for 42years he must be a great person, or they might be so dummy to try fighting him now, "why now dad?"

That was a question which any grown up will have a problem trying to explain to a child. Yes! Why now
The question went like this, "Dad! They are fighting their president in a country with a war?", "Why now dad?"
Well can you tell them, well I believe there are external forces, because obviously the next question will be, "what is external forces dad?"

Can he say: well children is a long story, "During his 42-year reign, Gaddafi championed Pan-Africanism and African multiculturalism both at home and abroad. He embraced all the black Libyans who make up a quarter of the population together with the one million African migrant workers into Libya without prejudice.", but he had his bad leadership too. 

Will they buy such explanations?
 Maybe, Can you explain why there is involvement of USA in Syria, what about Somalia, Congo, Iran etc?

Can any grown up really answer a reasonable answer to these children which will make any sense and won't lead to further questions of why?
