* A recent article in the US news site "The Nation" started it off. This article reveals a scene that precedes political debate. The man's son is induced into the army with promises of money and a comfortable future life. He is soon transferred to Iraq, until a few Army staff come to break some news to the father...
This father lost his son to war. The reason? Unknown. The meaning? Unknown. What's left of his meaning to life? Unknown.
This Costa Rica-born man's English is pretty simple, making it really easy to understand. In fact as an English-language article, it's so darn easy to read, the tragedy goes straight into the bloodstream. Take time out from yourself for once and feel what another has felt. Find the article here.
