The whole worlds going MAD!!

I have not been able to say anything over the last week my friends, I am so disgusted with the world and the people who inhabit it that words have just failed me!
Everywhere you look you see death and misery, from the middle east tothe gulf of mexico, I am tired of it all, all the lies and deceit all the rich getting richer on the backs of the mindless poor who swallow the stories of the captive media slavishly, never questioning, never doubting. If this is the pinnacle of human endeavours then I for one am ashamed to be called human..

Is this what the Mayan's knew would happen as the stars lined up once more, is the fluxation of the worlds magnetic fields causing fluxations in the minds of the people as well. Has it been a slowly cumulative process which will culminate in all out war and economic meltdown?

I despair for the people of this planet, what do they do to each other in this technologically advanced state they have achieved. Do they reach out their hands to help each other?...Do they cure the problems of world hunger and poverty?...Do they look with compassion on their fellow human beings?

No is the answer to all those questions, what they do is murder each other and fight over resources, withold simple drugs that could save millions of lives...

Israeli's take a leaf out of the Somalian pirate's book and commit an act of piracy on the high seas, the world in general deplores the action but does anybody do anything about it...no...it's just words from the mouths of politicians, the liars in charge of us all...have we the people learnt nothing in the last few decades since the WAR TO END ALL WARS!!!

Apparently not ..we did not learn to curb the excesses of our governments...we did not hold them to account for their lies and mismanagement...we did not insist that the vast bulk of humanity with nothing were fed watered and clothed..we did not seek to play fair with our less fortunate brethren...

I have never liked the attitude of the western world of always wanting more and not caring at what cost it was aquired... For as long as I can remember there have been warnings from people that could forsee the future our short sighted greed refused to admit to seeing...Rachel Carson in the fifties wrote Silent Spring, about the loss of our habitat filled with wildlife, and year on year the short sighted called for more hardwoods from the rainforest, more burgers from the Amazon, more amd more and more...

James Lovelock wrote of Gaia and the problems that were inherent in the systems we chose to support through our indolence and ignorance, these things they prophesied are now come to pass, the bee's are dying, and the plants will not be pollinated, slowly but surely the planet is dying...and only now do our governments talk...only talk mind you, of cutting emissions ,of recycling, of US the PEOPLE becoming responsible for the mess we are in...was it us the people who dropped Agent Orange across huge swathes of the Far East...was it US the PEOPLE who detonated Nuclear after Nuclear to demonstrate how powerful we were...

No my friends I do not think we will see them admit their folly, I do not think we will come to live in peace and prosperity with each other, I do not think that there is any hope that the collective madness can now be reversed, as WE the PEOPLE finally come to the realisation that WE the PEOPLE have had enough of the lies of the political elites who have driven us all down this road like sheep before the wolves!!

I am sorry my friends there are so many of you I wish I could have known and held in valued friendship, there are so many of you who have tried to do the right thing as far as you were able, but there were too many of those who did not care ,too many of those who promulgated violence on those who were different, lets face it my friends there were too many fascists, who just wanted their own way, for us ordinary PEOPLE to be able to live freely.

I will not mourn the passing of humanity, if that is what is to occur, there was too much wrong with us to make mourning worthwhile, but I will shed a tear for those of us who called for change when change would have done some good...

Roll on the day of reckoning, the signs and portents are all there, the very planet itself is rumbling and stirring, flexing its muscles to turn in its sleep and crush us, the people, as the insignificant fleas we really are...
