ANSWER: Failed hair coup…

leads to a successful haiku

In the olden times —  

— before mornings became morbid during the time of Duterte due to the nightly  extrajudicial killings;

before unjustified armed attacks by superpowers on small countries sent jitters in microseconds worldwide –

life was lighter…

… when you showed up with your locks drastically chopped off, you’re met with:

“Buháy pa?” (So, are they still alive?).

Who?

Those responsible for cutting your hair!

Origin story.

Experiences in alliances for De-escalation. No to Wars of Aggression- these are prohibited by the UN Charter. Self-defense invocable only in imminent attack or imminent threat shown by overt acts like active targeting. De-escalate now.

Answer: Experiences in alliances for de-escalation.

Wars of Aggression such as unilateral bombings of a sovereign nation are absolutely prohibited by the UN Charter.

“Self-defense”, hyperbolically labelled as “preemptive strike”,

can be invoked only when a state-Party is under imminent attack,

or facing imminent threat

shown by overt acts like active targeting.

De-escalate now!

It is now 2026 — Gen-Z and millenials are the majority: Until and unless the veto power of any of the permanent members of the UN Security Council is revoked — or rendered overridable —

there can be no real legitimate, consensus-based, accountability against the unlawful use of force by member-States who abuse their dominance of armed might.

Without any overridability of the veto power, the UN General Assembly, and international agencies confabs,

are reduced to party-venues of government junkets …

and worthless gabfests.
