We escaped having our men conscripted for World War I although many lives were lost in battle and those who returned were forever damaged often with shell shock. For World War II, well thanks to De Valera et al we were neutral. Now, though we should be alert. That Russian nuclear submarine was prowling our waters recently, just near the cables that provide communications for one third of the world. Be aware. Cyprus was invaded by the Turks in the 1970’s and now Nasrallah have issued a warning to them. Nothing remains the same when power games are in play.
The geopolitical and legal dimensions of Nasrallah’s warning to Cyprus The recent warning by Hezbollah leader to Cyprus against military cooperation with Israel is a reminder of the legal and historical precedents that justify a state’s right to defend itself … Continue reading

Day by day more and more sexual abuse is reported. Private schools are not immune and it is worth watching this interview by Princess Diana’s brother, Charles Spencer … talk about his school with teachers who were sadists, a woman “Please” who basically raped young boys.

Smart phones show that young boys are accessing porn and violence (through games) as young as 10.
