  • The "eye" has it.
    As the world is being destroyed - turn on the television and see the destruction of Ukraine and realize that these works of art are describing what Putin has unleashed.
    The figures are all standing about, gesticulating as the dice of destruction reign down.

    It is a landscape of devastation. Where to turn? What to do? Is force the only possible response?

    Brother Thomas wrote: To be a man of peace, one has to be a fighter.
