What is the issue

What is the issue

When Hezbollah's Deputy Secretary General, Sheikh Naim Kassem started talking about the US and its involvement in the creation of ISIS / ISIL, which backfired in the US's face and created IS, it could have been laughable if so many people had not lost their lies, and more importantly to some, the lives of their children.

I could never ask you to put yourself in the place of a grieving parent and give me your opinion of the US, because the pain and suffering of losing a child is possibly the most hurtful thing that can happen to a human being. So, for the sake of regime change, all this suffering has been brought to bear on the Syrian people, and the underhanded dealings of the US Presidents, Bush, Obommer and Dump, deserve all the derision that the human race can muster. And to think that it has all been in vain, that must be like salt in the wounds of the people that have suffered under this senseless war.

Sheikh Naim Kassem said in an interview "We are with the Syrian people's choice and when it is election time and Syria's choice will be made without external intervention, we will respect any choice made by the Syrian people." Maybe now the madness can stop and the US and Israel can find an alternative solution to the problem, but what to do about Genie Oil Don't ask me.

Donald Dump just gets more and more ridiculous every time he tweets about his presidential issues, soon Micky Mouse will have more integrity and decorum than he does.

Enter stage left our seemingly crazy North Korean Kim Jong-il and his penchant for rockets and ICBM's and we have a recipe for disaster. Donald Dump does not seem to have the DNA that allows diplomacy and with two super powers, namely China and Russia both calling for diplomatic solutions to the rising threat of nuclear war, America makes the childish and pathetic statement that discussions and dialogue has failed, when there has been no discussions or dialogue for years. They say they don't want war but behave as though that is the only thing they want.

Imposing sanctions on Russia and North Korea and then expecting Russia to join in on the sanctions of North Korea. In anybody's books this is absurd. Saber rattling with nuclear weapons, how mature.

Maturity abounds in our leadership, it tells me there's something wrong woth our political system, too much power in one man's hands, we humans are not made to cope with that. (please note the sarcasm in the first part of that statement and the sad reality in the second)

With the death of former ANC Youth League Secretary General, Sindiso Magaqa the issue of political killings threatens to plunge KZN into an ungovernable state and National Union of Mineworkers clashing with themselves, the State resources being used for personal political agendas and a general sense of chaos abounding verywhere, it is amazing how we managed to achieve 2,5% growth in our country's GDP for the second quarter of the year. Miracles never cease to happen.
