Pretty Nascent

Over there,
Many people are killed,
Being killed,
By surgical strikes.

I suppose that,
In a True Democracy,
The right to strike,
Is an absolute right,
And,
A given,
I suppose,
In a True Democracy.

But over there?
There, the democracies,
Are pretty nascent,
Aren't they?

So I do hope,
These surgeons,
Call their strikes off soon.
Doesn't it contradict their Hippocratic Oath,
Or something?

Maybe our surgical strikers,
Over there,
Have gone a bit,
I dunno,
..Militant?
