We Deserve Smiles, Not Sirens 🕊️

We are an extraordinary land, with breathtaking nature, deep culture, brilliant minds, and warm hearts.
A country that deserves peace and respect, not war and hatred.
We are hosts, not haters.
We deserve smiles, not sirens.

But why have we come to believe that connecting with the world is dangerous?
Why do we assume that talking to the world means we’ve made a mistake?
Why do we constantly look at the world with fear and suspicion?

From morning to night, our words are filled with anger and curses:
“Death to…” “Down with…”
Is that really culture? Is that education?
We are growing up with hate, not thought.

They tell us to stay isolated, to stay quiet, to feel ashamed of joy.
Why? Because they know exactly who they are, and what they fear.

We are ordinary people.
We are not terrorists.
We are a nation that simply wants to live.

We watch executions with open eyes,
but when two people kiss, yes, even a married couple, we frown or look away.
In other countries, presidents kiss their spouses in public because love is normal, not a crime.
But we’re only at ease with grief, not with life.

We’ve built religion out of lies.
We turned mourning into a show.
We turned Ramadan into performance.
Even our holidays smell of blood, not joy.

The world must know:
The future won’t be built with missiles.
The future needs wisdom, love, and real humanity.

We choose to connect to the world,
not through war, not through death,
but through our minds, our hearts, and our humanity.
