I have held several discussions about this theory that what we experience is created around us in real time and does not otherwise exist. One of the justifications for believing this theory (from non-physicists) is that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light so quantum entanglement cannot exist. The inability to bring the…

People Posting
I read an American critic on linkedin that said Biden was not wise to allow Ukraine to shoot rockets into Russia and one of the reasons he made the decision was because he didn’t know Russia had long range missiles. I mention this as one of the absurd things one reads in posts – didn’t…
The Real Migrant Crisis
No one from the US is running into Mexico and no one from the UK is running into Germany. The migrants across Europe are running and to answer why there is a problem it is to their countries you must look. Most are running from political and/or social persecution, lack of opportunities to have a…
Dictators and Conflict
It is a sad reflection on humanity that we worship dictators in war. Alexander of Macedon was a dictator and serial invader. Many of the men I learned about as a child such as Wolf and Clive were invaders of other countries serving divine monarchs in England. We tend to think of dictators as the…
With Best Intentions
The League of Nations, the United Nations, NATO all were created to stand against tyranny and yet in their own stead for some they became the tyrants – deciding who should be sacrificed for the greater good of other nations.

What is Heard
I listened to the new appointee by Trump stating that the war needs to end in the Middle East within eight weeks as he doesn’t want to be a war president and to do that Israel needs to bomb Iran’s oil installations to bring the country to its financial knees. I also heard an Iranian…
The Rise of what never Fell
I hear from many quarters the mantra now that the right wing thinking of the human race is on the rise and has received a significant boost by the elections in the USA. At the same time rampant Jew hatred has erupted on streets because of the outcomes of a war Muslims wanted. There would…
Years Ago
After the Falklands incident a man came home who had been badly burned and his face and body needed many grafts. He was on TV saying how hard he found it to find any work having left the army/navy. I was working on a building site at the time and one of the supervisors had…
Trump
There are a lot of people in mourning in the US, some leaving the country they see as becoming alien to their values, others getting angry. In point of fact every contest is won and lost in equal measure and the Democrats did not play a good hand. They knew they were trying to get…
