Who's
Fault?
This dialogue is happening deep inside a war-torn school classroom that was converted into a training camp run by a radical group who were fighting the ruling regime, which was a puppet in hands of the invaders. A trainer came with an AK47 Gun and started explaining how to load the gun and use it.
A 12-year boy stood and asked what is AK? The trainer
explained a few words about the gun with his limited knowledge and ordered the
boy to learn how to use the gun.
The boy insisted the trainer write a few words
about the gun, the trainer said "I don't know how to read and write"
The boy asked the fellow trainees how many of you know
how to read and write, hardly two or three raised their hands and the rest of
them kept quiet.
The boy said "If we would have learnt how to
read and write, our education would have been a tool to fight the government
and prevent the invaders from exploiting us, but today we are not only learning
how to kill, but we are also killing ourselves and our next generation.
The Trainer looked at the boy for a while and after a few seconds, the youngster behind the boy stood with a shock to hold the boy's
body which was pierced with a few bullets and was wet with blood.
The trainer displayed a handheld pistol and said
"This is a silencer which can be fitted with the gun to kill those enemies
who are noisy without the noise of the gunshots
By the time he finished his statement, the young
boy's soul departed and the rest of them started practising how to load their
guns.
There is a choice between giving a pen
and a gun, the choice determines the future of the Nation
