"Mad Max" a la film "A Clockwork Orange."
a couple of days after my arrival,
beberapa hari setelah kedatangan saya,
who were standing in line,
bayi mereka sangat erat.
their infants very close.

senjata kecil dan senjata ringan
small arms and light weapons
like that young baby,
seperti bayi kecil itu,
around the world,
of various armed groups
of cheap, easy and efficient weapons

dalam konflik bersenjata di seluruh dunia
