One gets the feeling that in times of economic desperation new fabricated enemies will arise and plunge us into war. Putin worries me and what he will do in his quest to retain power, North Korea is a dangerous wild card, the middle east is a hotbed of unrest and killing.
It would only take a conflict between two nuclear powers to start a 3rd world war, effectively one trying to wipe out an entire civilization on either the losing or winning side of a conventional war.

You should try making a hat out of your tin foil and see if it helps.

After all, how can you be happy when people are being killed in Gaza, when ebola is wiping out communities, when planes are falling out the sky?
Think back the the world leaders of then, and compare them to now. Then add a touch of electronic, satellite guided weaponry and it's all just a bit chilling.

There is a lesson in life that you really need to learn Suity.
When you are a true expert in something, the telly, the pundits, the newspapers, the bloke down the pub, EVERYONE, talks sh!te on the subject. you know this, because you are the expert.
So why, all of a sudden, does the telly, the pundits, the newspapers and the bloke down the pub become experts on every other subject under the sun ?
