Day 401: (Anzac Day): Give peace a chance, John Lennon

So this is the second year that I have cited a song on Australian Anzac day. Anzac day is when Australians commemorate all those Aussies who have tragically lost their lives in armed conflict from the tragic souls who were gunned down by the Turks on Anzac cove to the many Aussies who suffered in were killed or suffered horrific injuries; both psychological and physical in the Vietnam war. If only we could really give peace a chance at those times when nations drift inexorably toward war.

Happy Anzac Day!
