^^^unfortunately some harp on about things which are by their very nature indefensible and seem to have no idea what things stand for.
Which is why rational debate is for Sky a naughty word and he has to make up "facts" all the time

Oh.
Wait.
Oh come on, we all know that politics were never based on morality or ethics

Personally, I am waiting for the moment when politicians finally have the guts to say it out loud. When war can finally be defined correctly as "enforcing our political will on our enemies" and not the "restoring peace and balance" crap

The enemy or contradicting interests is the key.

Sometimes is for good or bad (bad choices or interests)but overall that is what allows us to live relatively comfortable life while babbling about it.

At the end some of the politicians are chosen to act in the best of interests of your countries.
Not saying that all of them necessary act with those standards but you know...the views may vary.

We are far away yet from being one big happy world community.
