Eavesdropping

It's out in the open now: George Junior honestly seems to believe he can do anything in his power to make eveyone in the world obey his every command. He is send by the Almighty to fight the Devil and his Worshippers by any means he sees fit.

In the old days such a person was called a paranoid dictator. Nowedays he is known as President of the United States of America. Civil Rights? Treaty? Democracy? Innocent? George Bush Junior does not know the expressions...

Just the other day Eva, Dayna and Ferdinand (and a lot of other kids in this country worldwide known as "Holland") celebrated Sinterklaas and soon they will be celebrating Christmas, perhaps the weirdest festive season of the year. We promise to be nice to eachother for two whole days. Why not be nice to your relatives or even complete strangers for the rest of the year? Is this what Jesus had in mind when he spoke, some 2000 years ago? I personally seriously doubt it.

Terrorists

How much money a year is spend on fighting terrorism? How many people a year die of terrorist attacks?
How much money a year is spend on fighting poverty? How many people a year die of hunger?

Something's terribly wrong in this world...
