M For Martyrs

Perhaps we could have seen the issue coming, but obviously it's too late now.

Perhaps we could have planned for some sort of disaster that could have covered it, but obviously it's too late now.

Perhaps we could have started evacuation right when it began, but obviously it's too late now.

Perhaps we could have provided cover to minimise the casualties, but obviously it's too late now.

Perhaps we could have gotten records and headcounts of those we lost, but obviously it's too late now.

But now, we must attack our neighbour to avenge the losses, before it's too late!
