He Who Is Not With Us MUST Be Bombed
Democracy And The New World Order

Can someone please help me to explain what democracy is? I am lost of the meaning of the word as I could not reconcile with my dictionary. Democracy or is it ‘them all crazy’? How democracy is being tested in the last ten years is evidence of the world moving one sided. They say that there are two sides to a coin. Is it true? If this is true, why is it that who is not with us is against us and must be bombed? They say again and again that ‘democracy’ is a game of number. Is ‘Number’ means People or Guns? What I mean is, he who has more guns wins or he who has more people on his side wins, which is which as I am confused?

This reminds me about the use of ‘Chemical’ weapon. Chemical weapon MUST not be tolerated in this modern age and whosoever uses it MUST be punished. Now enters Syria and the use of chemical weapon. The general agreement is whoever uses it must be punished. Now who used the chemical weapon in Syria? The rebels or the government? The general agreement was, whoever uses chemical weapon must be punished and this means that there must be thorough investigation. Thorough investigation I repeat. The world must not apportion blames, the reality must be uncovered. Please the world leaders must stop taking sides and come together to identify who it was that used the chemical weapon in Syria and when this has been uncovered, the guilty side must be punished. Fare? Am I making sense?

Now I do not know how old you were in the 1980s when George Bush senior declared the ‘world new order’? This then meant ‘the world full of milk and honey’ and where everyone live in peace. Peace? Yes I mean peace. That was then. What is happening now cannot be described as milk, honey and peace, is it? I salute David Cameron the British Prime Minister. United Kingdom has been dragged to wars many times and are now weary of any more rumours of war. The members of parliament listened to their constituencies and voted against it. War mongers said that the vote has weakened the Prime Minister. How? I cannot understand. This is the first time ‘democracy’ was put to the test in the last twenty years in the UK. Some ministers said that they were locked up behind the doors of their offices and they did not realise when the vote was cast. Rubbish! Those who did not vote knew exactly what they were doing.

Now enters President Obama. Foreign Committee has voted in favour of war. Please do not forget that the result was 10/7 in favour of the government. This means that a sizeable number voted against it, but American is a democratic nation and this means that majority carries the vote, yes? Poor President Obama, he does not like war but he must maintain ‘American Foreign’ policy. Again, President Obama is doing what David Cameron did in the United Kingdom. He has also passed it to the law makers (House of Representatives and the Senate) to vote on it. Good stuff. Good on you President Obama. War is not a replacement for democracy. Let the American people speak. He who has ear let him hear. Cheerio!
