Fallujah

No, I so not suffer from amnesia.
I'm glad to see some others who don't, either.

This is it.

The outcome of our elections. These two hold the future of our country in their hands. Our future, our well-being.

Best buddies already.
I'm not holding my breath.

Why, I wonder, do I still bother to vote.
It always ends up with the same crowd.

Today's headlines

I haven't done this in some time but this particular combination of news headlines on nu.nl made me snigger today
(really, do they think we all are braindead??)

Drought

The people of northern Mexico did not cause this drought.
The rich west did.
They are paying the price, though...
As for the west, we still delay, delay, delay.
(where is the next climate conference planned?)


This is our future.
Perhaps not soggy Netherlands' future - IT will be under water.

I grieve

for what's coming.

for what could have been.

for what will never be.

for that young child so long ago, sitting in front of a scratchy radio with her father, listening to one small step for man while dreaming of a world expanding into the universe. Dreams that were in vain.

for all young children of today who are inheriting destruction.

Minister Kamp

Wat is ie toch een eng, ENG man.

Never ending story

... bedoelde Geert deze ontwikkelingshulp te stoppen???




...daar zou ik hem wel gelijk in kunnen geven. Maar wel dan onze houding wijzigen en druk op Israel zetten!!!
