Preface – World War Human | Abhijit Naskar | 100 New Earthling Sonnets

There never was a war of the free world against fascism, there was only war between two versions of fascism – because the so-called free world has tortured and massacred more lives than the third reich could only dream of.

There never was a world war between good and evil, there was only war between two evils. There never was a world war against tyranny, there was only war between an established tyrant regime and a rising one. The real first world war has just begun – the war between good and evil – the war between emancipation and occupation – between inclusion and exclusion – between expansion and contraction – between reason and rigidity – between humanity and inhumanity. I call it, World War Human.

And unlike previous times, we won’t win this war by old-fashioned bullets and bombs, or by deceit and diplomacy. The World War Human can only be won by education, and education alone – by an ardent, absolute, unambiguous, unbending, undoctrinated, unphobic, unwhitewashed, decolonized, nonpartisan, gender neutral, valiant, self-correcting and conscientious execution of education.
