the irony is that babylon, just as we are now, was THE empire of its day.

perhaps some future empire, should humanity last so long, show us the same staggering disrespectful ignorance and thus the same disregard for understanding the human journey on the planet.
perhaps some future empire will also show us the same shallow, hollow arrogance in the belief that they too, like us, are superior to everyone and everything yesterday, today and tomorrow.
the greatest lesson to be learned from history is that all empires are brutal and arrogant but also all empires eventually crumble and are swept away.
the inability to actually see this obvious irony is saddening.
