Humans are strange creatures.
I usually read my MSN News feed every morning to see what is happening in the world, and all I see are stories about Ms Markle, a new Mayor in NY, David Beckham, Knife crime, The Kardashians, and lots of minor Celebs either getting married, or getting divorced.
Meanwhile in other parts of the world tyrants are behaving like savages. We have Hamas, Putin, and worst of all the RSF in Sudan.
Going through the dross that purports to be 'News', I found just one small piece about Sudan. Otherwise there was an article about the appalling treatment of an Israeli hostage in Gaza, and nothing about Ukraine at all.
The report I came across about the atrocities in Sudan, was only to inform us that Yvette Cooper, our fragrant Foreign Secretary, was sending £5 Million to help the Christians who are being slaughtered in unimaginable numbers, and in unimaginable ways. Reports describe streets flowing with blood with body parts spread everywhere; all viewable from space. Hospitals have been attacked with all patients, doctors, women and babies, being killed en masse. Other 'war crimes' are too nasty to mention here, but you can imagine.
Sudan's RSF (Rapid Support Force) are possibly the most brutal military group on earth, but their crimes get very little coverage. Frankly, what will £5 Million do to help solve the problem? Nothing! It's the price of a reasonable size house in Notting Hill. The RSF are being supported by Saudi and Iran; a few UK taxpayers £'s will hardly help against that. Most will probably go directly to someone's pocket anyway.
Is Ms Kardashian's new hair colour really more important than genocide in Africa? I think occasionally we get our priorities completely wrong! Those poor Christians in Sudan deserve our help; the RSF, like Hamas, needs to be stopped and eliminated.
