I feel that the issues discussed by the song are extremely important. However, i think it all starts with the upbringing of the child. If a child is thought to be truthful, peaceful and brought up to be a good man, things such as terrorism, war and others will not happen. However, if a child is not thought properly, he will have warped values and start to do bad things. These will thus result in the child being attracted to things such as terrorism and war. In America, the people make the decisions as it is a democratic country. Imagine if these children grew up and began to vote. If the country is about to go to war, they would definitely vote for war instead of peace. Hence, i think that the upbringing of the child is extremely important as it affects all of the factors above.
I also feel that the media would result in the things the song mentioned happening. I feel that this is so as the nowadays, the media promotes violence and other warped values. The media also promotes sex and drugs. With the media promoting these things, many people would want to follow the things the people do in the movies or television programmes. Thus, more people will commit crimes such as taking drugs.
With the above points, i can conclude that terrorism, war and warped values are created when one is brought up in the wrong way or is in a bad environment.
There are also many other injustices in society today. One such injustice is racism. Many people dislike others of different races because of their different skin colour. Many people dislike others with coloured skin because of their 'impurity of skin". Many people think that coloured people are sinful and that coloured people all have committed heinous crimes in their lives.However, this also has to do with the upbringing of a person and his or her environment. If a person is thought to hate coloured people and look down on them, he will do so in future. If a person is in an environment or place where most people hate coloured people, he will also do so in time as he wants to fit into that environment.
From the above points i made, i can thus conclude that all injustices in society have to do with one's upbringing.
