F Foe







So many questions…


What does it take for a man to kill?

What does it take for a man to kill himself?

To kill others?

To kill his passengers?

What does it take to make a pilot destroy his aircraft, kill his passengers?

What does it take?

 

Can it really be called suicide though he died while committing mass-murder?

 

But he was only a man, he was alone and he was only human… right?

 

What makes a pilot human?

What makes a man, a pilot?

What makes a man depressed?

 

What does it take to become depressed?

What did it take for him?

 

What does it take?

Take.

Take.

Take.

 

What was that pilot taking?

What was that man taking?

What was he taking?

 

What was he ON?

 

Now, he’s on TV.

 

TV says he was a sick man.

As if, just another victim.

Understand?

 

He was a European, man.

Perhaps even a Christian, man.

 

What if he had been a Muslim?

What if he, had been a woman?

 

What was he taking?

 

The day he took it all away from so many.
