Four watchman on the wall. A parable.
A King sent four watchmen to stand guard on the wall surrounding His camp. The four watchmen were each of a different kin and came each from a different nation to swear loyalty in adoration to the great King.
The four watchmen were posted on the wall, but soon they started arguing about whose nation's food is better and then they started rebuking one another for the offenses of their kin.
In their bickering with one another they forgot to watch for the enemy and they forgot the King who sent them. The enemy saw their infighting and mounted a sneak attack, passing by the bickering guards without them noticing, breached the wall, caused damage to the King's camp and took captives.
What should be done with such watchmen?
