WIKI SAY:

Hannibal is an American psychological thriller–horror television series developed by Bryan Fuller for NBC. The series is based on characters and elements appearing in the novel Red Dragon by Thomas Harris and focuses on the budding relationship between FBI special investigator Will Graham and Dr. Hannibal Lecter, a forensic psychiatrist destined to become Graham's most cunning enemy.

and

probably the key to the whole series depends

on these two characters:

Does a Parent Not Care About Their Child? (NCIS Anonymous Was a Woman)

It is the turn-- again, still-- of Afghan girls and women to endure as victim souls as
a witness to the world that

a. nothing's changed
b. the earth is filled with great and pervasive evil; A part of a species gains great pleasure by the grinding and degrading of those others of its own tribe!!!?
c. the world [and the Fabulous who rule it] apparently has no physical power or the will/desire to end the thuggish, carnal, torture of a certain subset of the species.
d. Congo..  .  Somalia..  ..Egypt..   ..Afghanistan
E. Some of the above
F. Continue o through Z.

There is an NCIS episode (Anonymous Was a Woman) which highlighted albeit necessarily sugarcoated the issue--

The issue is the treatment of girls and women and often boys too as chattel, as worse than chattel, by the men in power in afghanistan

As i watched this story on the newshour tonight, i was moved especially 
when listening to those who knew her
describe her.
Open, living, transparent? authentic. connected...

Her photos are wonderful i was inspired

In this Tuesday, Dec. 24, 2002 file photo made by Associated Press photographer Anja Niedringhaus, hundreds of U.S. Marines gather at Camp Commando in the Kuwait desert during a Christmas eve visit by Santa Claus.

and at the end

i thought 

there are so many people are shot and killed in afghanistan 
in congo, in chicago]

that,
 if we heard the beloved of each of those
weep their praises and tell us of the finest parts of the lost soul, 
perhaps we would walk around shell-shocked like the families in our midst

Who you think you are, Be really....

That's the Way

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fxnFlxAGRdA







from the youtube site:


"That's the Way" is a song by English rock band Led Zeppelin from their third album, Led Zeppelin III, released in 1970. Like several of the tracks on the album, it is an acoustic song and is particularly noted as being one of the most gentle and mellow compositions in the Led Zeppelin catalogue.

This was one of the few songs in their catalogue that Led Zeppelin authorized for use on a film soundtrack. After seeing a rough cut of Cameron Crowe's Almost Famous in 2000, Page and Plant agreed to let him use some Led Zeppelin songs on it, but this is the only one which made it onto the soundtrack album. Other Led Zeppelin songs which can be heard in the movie are "Tangerine", "The Rain Song", "Bron-Yr-Aur", "Immigrant Song" and "Misty Mountain Hop".



I don't know how I'm gonna tell you, I can't play with you no more,
I don't know how I'm gonna do what mama told me, My friend, the boy next door.
I can't believe what people saying, You're gonna let your hair hang down,
I'm satisfied to sit here working all day long, You're in the darker side of town.

And when I'm out I see you walking, Why don't your eyes see me,
Could it be you've found another game to play, What did mama say to me.

*That's The Way, Oh, That's The Way it ought to be,
Yeah, yeah, mama say That's The Way it ought to stay.

And yesterday I saw you standing by the river,
And weren't those tears that filled your eyes,
And all the fish that lay in dirty water dying,
Had they got you hypnotized?

And yesterday I saw you kissing tiny flowers,
But all that lives is born to die.
And so I say to you that nothing really matters,
And all you do is stand and cry.

I don't know what to say about it,
When all you ears have turned away,
But now's the time to look and look again at what you see,
Is that the way it ought to stay?

That's the way... That's the way it oughtta be
Oh don't you know now, Mama said.. that's the way it's gonna stay,
