Armies are the greatest support of tyranny.
There can be no dictator without an army. I admit to myself, finally, in my heart what my woman always knew so intuitively and naturally I now know as simple truth. Any 'honor' or 'heroism' in all of this is nowhere to be found, no inspired words from comrades or leaders. All the slogans and rallies echoing off of as empty rhetoric like the screams I hear bleeding off the torn and chipped adobe walls which are dying from the arid environment and the neglect by the Federales. My wrists are almost completely numb form the hemp rope grinding the helpless flesh of my wrists.
