    WTF Whats's happening to this planet. Elections looming

    Couple hundred young girls abducted, not important anymore.

    https://nz.news.yahoo.com/a/-/world/...hief-in-india/

    Not Important anymore. Don't even think it made KB

    Civilian Airliner shotdown is the current juicy morsel

    What's going on with our own stuff ? We got elections coming up and we are being feed stuff about our leaders, who had a holiday. blah blah blah.


    Harley haven't even done the press release for the new models.

    ...too many glossy ads, glossy people...too much news...desensitized masses...too far away...whats on TV...I'm all right Jack...too many wanters and not enough do'ers... thieving career politicians with no skill or mana...the people that listen to them...


    ...some years back as a more naive person, I was so proud to be a New Zealander...now I just feel very fortunate to be one...

    280 killed on a plane, possibly mistaken identity=newsworthy, world leaders outraged
    500 killed in Gaza= hardly worth a mention

    Why give a shit? Why drag your life down to be compassionate to people in a situation that you can't fix?

    The less news you watch, the happier you will be. Does it suck that a passenger jet got shit down? Yes. Am I going to spend any of my time reading about it? No, no point.

    Can I go to Africa and bring the girls home? No, someone elses issue.

    I went past a liarbour billboard today. It proclaimed "Be Positive". (their PR guru couldn't do better than that?)

    I'm pretty sure they deliberately don't want to win this next election and are actively doing everything in their power to look even dumber than the green party.

    Rather not had read that article. Sick stuff. But then all the 'rather not have read that' people are probably why that shit still happens as no one wants to know

    Can I donate $10 somewhere to make it go away? That's the modern way of dealing with it.

    Plane ... first passenger plane shot down for about 20 (?) years
    Gaza ... been happening for 60 years off and on.

    Apart from that though ... wouldn't say its hardly worth mention ... Gaza has been on TV every night since the Hamas boys started lobbing missiles at their neighbours again last month.

    Leave the area says Netanyahu (Israel) but it's hard to leave when you have nowhere to go and a jackboot clamped firmly on your neck!

    Stop using women and children as a shield he says ... but they have nowhere else to go!

    Stop firing rockets at us ... but of course we wont take away the blockades and give you back your land!

    When people have no alternative but to throw rockets ... guess what they will do ... throw the fucking rockets as hard as they can go!

    Israel is worse than the Nazis (that they never ever want the world to forget) because they are doing the same things to the Palestinians!

    A whole head for an eye and a whole set of dentures for a tooth! ... Compassion - Israeli style! Yeah right!

    But wait... We are in the midst of the worst outbreak of Ebola known. Last time I looked more than 500 confirmed dead & possibly 3 times as many undeclared. Outbreaks in 3 countries including capital cities..

    ISIS is running amok in eastern Syria, unlike Gaza it's not getting much coverage, bugger all. A Syrian Kurd speculated with a British journo that perhaps it was ISIS who were behind the murder of 3 Israeli teens, hmmm....

    The Caliphate which was destroyed in 1918 has been resurrected. Even Al Qauida vow there allegiance.
    Israel is in the "Levant".

    Not a single scrap of MH 370 has been recovered. Debris from Fukushima washed up on the US coast in less than a year.

    Julian Assange & Eric Cantona are gym buddy's. WTF?

    Dirty great holes appearing in Siberia as the permafrost melts. In the middle of one of the worlds biggest gas fields. Great job opportunities available.

    As many images of Buks going into the Ukraine as there are going into Russia but we got a pick an enemy somehow.

    Gaza. Rinse & repeat.

    Sad to say we live in interesting times but have a great seat for the show.

    Its hard to fit all that into the 15 minutes of news before the real issues of Rugby, Golf and other business news starts.

    When I was a kid the Vietnam war was in black and white and grainy, these days the viewing kwality is so much better.
    DeMyer's Laws - an argument that consists primarily of rambling quotes isn't worth bothering with.
