Education should be the number one industry in every nation, because its output, i.e. the educated citizens, will be the pillars upon which to build a better society.The lack of education is the main cause of today’s violence and terror around the world.
An educated person will not fall prey to criminal organizations, to gang initiation rites, to fanatics who in the name of “religion” emphasize the use of violence to assert their rights.
An educated person goes beyond the slogans politicians use during an election campaign.
The so-called “war on the terror” can be won only by giving access to good education to the underprivileged, by building schools and not prisons.
Books, Not Bombs and Better-Qualified Teachers that is what is needed.
Democracy can only proliferate if “education” will become a social business, and a top priority in any political agenda.
