Man’s inhumanity

Looking at the news to-night I’m saddened enraged and heartbroken at the sight of the fires all over the country in woods and heathland, The fact that many of these fires are started deliberately make me all the angrier.

The sheer waste and ugliness that is left is an affront to the senses, but to my mind it is dwarfed by the devastation to wildlife, especially now at a time when the bird nesting season is at it’s peak, not to mention the other creatures, from tiny voles to deer which, if they’ve escaped with their lives, have nowhere to go., again it makes me seriously doubt the existence of a god.

As if all that devastation to the land is not enough, also in the news the suggestions of building new runways for airports, When the h*ll is it all going to end, can’t man just try to empathise with nature, live and let live.

When I hear the governments and the other groups shout about species which are being lost and going into decline, I want to scream and rant at them asking can’t they see why? they can’t keep on concreting over the world and felling forests, neither for commercial use or sheer malice.

It's been reported that two teenage youths have been arrested, if they’re guilty, \i hope they dangle them by the ankles over a slow burning fire

Compassion

So good to have a different perspective from the media version of the men serving in Afghanistan .

He is a Chief Master Sergeant in the USAF serving in Afghanistan

        As high as you can go in enlisted ranks (E-9)

Wouldn't it be fitting if this went completely around the world!

The insurgents intended to execute the little girl also, and shot her in the head...but they failed to kill her.
She was cared for in John 's hospital and is healing up, but continues to cry and moan.
The nurses said John is the only one who seems to calm her down, so John has spent the last four nights
holding her while they both slept in that chair. The girl is coming along with her healing.
He is a real Star of the war, and represents what the combined service is trying to do.
This, my friends, is worth sharing.  Go for it!! You'll never see things like this in the news.
Please keep this going.
Nothing will happen if you don't, but the world needs to see pictures like this and needs to realise that what we're doing over there is making a difference.
Even if it is just one little girl at a time.

Dog rescued in Japan

I saw this video this morning and it brought tears to my eyes, It never ceases to amaze me that through all the tragedy in this awful disaster, they could still find the compassion to save one dog. I dare you not to be moved.
