Notes	This poem is a 'triad', a poem that lists 3 related things and considers their effects. This poem in particular considers the 'Trí Pheaca an Domhain Thiar' - the three sins of the Western World, which the post lists as being the assassination of Saddam Hussein; the assassination of Bin Laden; and the assassination of Muammar Gaddadi. This is a comment on the American interventionist policies during the War on Terror, and their assassinations of Islamic political leaders, in Iraq (Hussein) and Libya (Gaddafi), and Islamic terrorist leaders (Bin Laden).
