The way of the world.



In America they are concentrating on the bedroom antics of some insignificant porn star, and her relationship with a squillionaire. 

In the UK they're trying to understand why so many 'ethnic minority' people are killing each other. 

Whilst over in Turkey three powerful unpredictables (Rouhani, Erdogan, and Putin) are deciding who'll get what when Syria is eventually divided-up.

Eeee, it's a grand old world!

Good morning Cro,I will not say anything so as not to wake the trolls in their dark tunnels.

I'm sorry about that yesterday; I really thought I was rid of her. However, I did note that eventually she was deleting her own stupid comments. She really makes me sick!

Never mind,we shall keep our good spirit and friendship.

And to notch up a murder they pick off an innocent white. Gang says 'kill someone and then you can be in gang'. Casually walking out of station. Then dead. Is it worth travelling to London for a day or a night out?

Cro Magnon said...

You have to chose your locations very carefully. East London is now off the list; stick with 'parts of' the West.

New World said...

They don't look like ethnic minority; to me they look like majority.

Cro Magnon said...

I was actually just about to write that!!

when you think about it,it is young men(mainly)of all colours and creeds who are disaffected, worldwide. So what is every type of society getting wrong?

The trio? repeating at least a hundred years of history...may the gods help the Kurds,yet again.

I was looking at a picture of all 55 dead (so far) this year, and they were 99% of Afro/Caribbean extraction. School isn't cool, there is a lot of pressure on kids, and there is easy money to be made. The perfect combo for inter-gang trouble.

The sultan, the tsar and the Emir. Dangerous combination. The sultan is becoming bolder and more aggressive. I hope it's all rhetoric.

Cro Magnon said...

Goodness knows what they were plotting; but you can guarantee it wasn't nice!

Cro Magnon said...

I MUST APOLOGISE AGAIN FOR THE CHLOE VIRUS. I AM DELETING AS OFTEN AS I CAN, BUT SHE IS VERY PERSISTENT.

New World said...

If the unprovoked murder of the white man by black youths had been the other way around we would have had headlines about race related murder of innocent black. Instead I doubt anyone here even noticed it such was the reportage.

New World said...

Putin's long term strategy when he intervened against the rebels when everybody else stood back and did nothing was for Assad to retain overall control. This would have been best for Syria. Erdogan is the most dangerous man and still he expects to join the EU.

Troubles of the world all over. I am quite pleased I don't live in Birmingham. Let's just go to rousing chorus of There Will Always Be An England.

Cro Magnon said...

Putin was decisive about ISIS and Al Qaeda, then seems to have joined in with Assad's atrocities. Syria is a mess, and could still see a quasi 'world war' on purely Syrian soil.

Cro Magnon said...

There are many 'English' towns/cities that you wouldn't want to go near. They have been turned into the worst type of no-go ghettos.

Violence is everywhere and there is nowhere to hide.

All we can do is pray that is doesn't come to our back doors!

The EDL held a rally in the town where I live. Beforehand they had put out propaganda stating that parts of it were no go areas for white people which was completely untrue. Fortunately, it was seen as such, and a white man who lives there made a humorous film of himself in the supposed 'no go area' to disprove the lies. I shop there, my former dentist has his practice there, the local football ground is there. There will always be those who have a divide and conquer mentality. Fortunately, many of us who live alongside black, Asian and eastern European people know that what the media, or those with an agenda, would have the masses believe, isn't always reality.

If I allowed myself to think about it all I would be in despair - but at my age I have too little time left so I just try to put it out of my mind and concentrate on the beauty of things around me.

Cro Magnon said...

I SHOULD do the same, but things still pray on my mind. I worry on behalf of my grandchildren.

New World said...

Many atrocities attributed to Assad are the work of one of the rebel groups. And there are many rebel groups fighting on different sides. It is the easiest way out to out to put Assad's name to it, or Putin's. Before the rebels started the civil war Syria was a relatively happy place and all in one piece. Now it is a heap of rubble.

Cro Magnon said...

I haven't lived in the UK for years, but I believe there are parts of East London (and elsewhere) where the police just never go. Even ambulances and fire engines are pelted with stones if they have to go there. I would call those places 'no-go' areas.
