What is the issue

What is the issue

Author: Tomas Yoko

And what a bloody Easter it was. While the world celebrated the resurrection of one of the most famous prophets to ever have lived, other blood thirsty politically motivated maniacs were plotting to kill so many innocent people it makes my brain curdle.

For the love of God, these reprobates commit their atrocities in the name of God. How do they reconcile this? I am bamboozled by the whole idea of terrorist attacks on innocent people. For crying in a bucket why can't they make these attacks on civic installations like bridges, dams, electrical key points and the like and leave innocent women and children out of their macabre attacks.

Then we wake up to an aeroplane hi-jacking a la 1900's. If it were not so sad and pathetic it would be funny. The world may come out in the strongest condemnation of these acts but that will not stop them from happening. It is like the Rhino horn debacle. All the efforts to stop the trouble is being concentrated in the wrong direction. Instead of killing the poachers, kill the marketers. Instead of condemning the terrorist, stop bombing their children.

At least the hi-jacking ended with a positive note and the fear of another terrorist attack was quashed, but if you listen carefully you can hear the collective breathing of the entire Western World, waiting for the next big disappointment. When will we ever wake up to the fact that it is our leadership that has led us down this garden path of distrust and destruction?

We are taunted with phrases like Food Security while companies like Monsanto are alleged to be able to cover up their involvement with the Zika virus. We are hounded by fear mongering news reports that are completely conflicting depending on which channel you watch. All anybody really wants is to live in peace and afford a better life for their children and family, surely? Of course there are those who really want to stay in ten thousand dollar hotel suites and sail million dollar gin palaces around the world, but there is no need to start a war to get this done.

But maybe I am being na*ve, maybe when Nick and Tony decided to bomb the hell out of Qaddafi because he wanted to sell his oil in Euros and start his own Gold backed Dinar currency, just maybe it was a good idea. I mean what would have happened if he was allowed to do that. The Dollar may have collapsed and then the world would be in pandemonium. So maybe it is okay to destroy a whole nation on the premise that their leader is a bad guy, just so that the status quo can remain the same and the world can continue to be hoodwinked by mainstream media. I mean do we really need to know what happened to the trillions of Dollars worth of gold that went missing from the Federal Reserve?

I mean we can all just go on believing that the twin towers were imploded in on themselves by a few terrorists that flew a plane or two into the buildings. We could just ignore the truth and be gullible. We would not need to know how much of Telkom and Eskom the Gupta family own or who appoints ministers or any of that twaddle.
