The so-called civilized world has failed, becoming a true civilized one since the birth of Homo Sapiens in Africa 200,000 years ago. The history of the pretending civilization has turned into a tale of dreadful human beings over time, leaving the habitant a terrified piece of land. Murders, wars, tortures, invasions, and religions are the worst practices here that have made the earth a hell to live in. People are being slaughtered; animals are being butchered in each and every corner of this human earth in everyday. Once the human beings named this land is a world of human civilization as they found themselves different from the animals living in jangles, but it has been thrown away the tag of humanity. Demanding their superiority to the jangle’s animals, they claimed themselves a civilized sect having a better vocal power, ready wits, and conscience. In course of time, they have filled the land and air with groans of humanity. They have made the earth a land of terrors.
Now all things — money, wealth, land, and fame— are being considered a precious one, but the humanity. At the moment, the term, ‘civilized world’, has been replaced with ‘bestial land’. History of human being has become a tale of bestiary. And subsequently in the past years, animals showed their quite nature than human beings.
According to statistics between 1955 and 2002, 5.4 million were killed in various wars in 13 countries.
Continued wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, and Pakistan had taken a huge human toll on the three nations. Till March 2015, about 210,000 people faced violent deaths in the three countries.
Nearly, 92,000 people were killed only in Afghan war since its beginning in 2001 after the Twin Tower was attacked allegedly by the Osama bin Laden on 11 September 2001. Another hundred of thousand civilians lost their legs and arms in the 13-year war between Taliban militants and US-led NATO armed forces. About 165,000 civilians died in Iraq war between 2003 and 2015 though that much less than the original figures. A number of people are being killed in the Syria and Yemen in the name of nationhood.
This is the only sect in the universe whose history has been written following bloody wars and violence. No being in the world ever killed own in such numbers. Not only the war-torn countries but the scenario of violence has grappled the earth.
The battle of 30-year war was ended in 1648 but the ghost of the notorious war has been prevailing in our nationhood over the centuries.
If we look into a developing country like Bangladesh, will see people are being shot dead, tortured to death in each and every day, but it seems a general phenomenon to us. Only in 2013, over 500 hundred people were killed in political violence in Bangladesh; we all remain calm for sake of personal gains. Many of the victims were burned alive. It’s not that only for political reasons but our feelings towards humanity have been damaged.
The incidents of killing, torture, crying of a kid, and even death don’t shake our hearts at all. Our conscience has been numbed. Violence against women has added a new dimension to the human nature. That, too, cannot hurt our notions.
No particular country or no nation or no one is responsible, but we all. If we don’t correct us and don’t stop the inhuman practices, this earth will be a land of beasts and brutality.

Everything that divides us, belittles us or underestimates us under the veil of great names….. religions, nationalities, races … Every stupid demarcations that divide the whole between ‘us’ and ‘they’ have to be thrown into trash-box….. Can’t we see the same sun enlightens us all & we breath the same air…. Humans, I wonder, how do you manage to invent such suicidal divisions ?!!
Yap bother. I am tired off taking toil of ‘us and they’. The places around me are filled with the sick cries. I am just looking for those and will be hunting for the makers of these dividers. If i find, will need to ask someday what I did?
