I have been pretty pissed off ( as I am sure you regular readers will be aware ) ever since Tony Blair and George bush decided to justify gargantuan military budgets - even to the disregard of a crumbling internal infrastructure in the constituencies of their own countries ….by waging war in a few middle eastern countries , against an alleged enemy … and well we have now basically been carpet bombing that entire region of the world ever since …. with no greater justification than '' that guy that we thought had weapons of mass destruction … but actually as it turns out didn't - but while we were decimating nations we happened to find a bunch f oil … the same oil that our outdated economies is utterly dependent on ! so despite there being no weapons of any real threat in Iraq ….. we decided to hold a 15 year military presence there while BP and Shell extract all that oil without the inconvenience of dealing with a lot of disparate peoples - this is just fucking sick … every time I try to write a reflection of this it just makes me good and angry …. I am sure that I should sit in some pay per hour zen garden in some meditation centre, run by a failed beauty therapist that once went to india '' travelling '' ( why all these upper middle class kids think that ' travelling ' is even remotely akin to being some bloated tourist in a developing economy - but whatever ! that's a notion for my former mother in law to ponder as she cleaves culture out of in flight magazines from her erstwhile labours ) to channel my stoic acceptance of the fucking travesty that unfolds around me …. and I should hold all of my opinions in check until its my turn to put a little tick in the democratic procedure that will I am sure be a genuine reflection of the state of mind of the country and my fellow country men …… ????
