you listen to the talk with suzi today...
your dad is not a cynic.
i was in my 20s, even part onto my 30s effete and cared only for my own humble aside unengaged hidden away simple bucolic comfort in my beloved hills ...aside
but i learned not to be me
was forced to...
take stuff seriously
there are few things worth saying except this land cannot even throw up as good a speaker as Sachs here..
we used to be able to...no more i only hear silly lost children on uk alt media....
its not the fault of politicians or power its simply an infantalised sybarite decedant wave of faux bohemianism lite and lost morally confused kiddults....( WE were proper bohemians with warrior spirits in my youth)
and to have been fooled into encouaraging half a million to fight and die in central europe...is sick
a thousand Urainians a day Sachs now reports die or seriously maimed
the few of us with a brain knew on day 1.... sue for compromise and peace
this was always a mad rambo insanity
and in yugoslav wars at least we had UN blue helmet peacekeepers...
they gave us hope
cynicism from the clever class as good as squashed that one simplest neutral hopeful symbolic solution...those blue helmets
when i saw blue helmets in the wartorn steets of Sarajevo which so saddened us...at least we felt there was some possible sanity just may prevail via the now ruined UN....cynicism and being too clever....whilst extraordinarily ignorant....from Brits more than anyone else....ruined it all
and today
all exactly as John Pilger and Tariq Ali have been saying for years
