Re: re
I have to agree with you Winged Shadows. I don't like the way politics allows certain deities to do as they please and fill the void with propaganda.
I can understand peoples anger that terrorists pervade their territory. Terrorists, and I include the governments of the world, are just playing, tit for tat. Seen it all before, boring, deceitful, of no value. Once it escalates to this, things just get worse. Liberties are taken away from us, all for the sake of dominance and control. Excuses will abound, reasons false. It is wrong all round, and the casualties are good people who have no part in what has occurred.
To say, go about your lives as normal, and you are a brave corageous nation, that you have become used to the situation, and you are showing the terrorists defiance, thereby not allowing them to 'win', is just another furphy. Look at the upgraded upgraded security, that shows me they have won. How can they say, no matter what they do they can't stop it, and justify the expense to the taxpayer on initiatives they know wont, or dont work.
I was appalled at our Australian Prime Minister, getting up after this last spate of activity, and predetermining what and how us Aussies would behave. He was virtually goading terrorist activity here. We are naive, any major terrorist activity, here, has occurred offshore. Easy to be defiant then isn't it. We will have our day of catastrophe. It is all too easy to bring about. You just have to hate your life to hurt others. About time we looked at ourselves as the source of the problems, and at how we are manipulated.
Politics suck, democracy is just the lesser of evils, but evil nontheless.
