What's On Your Mind?

If civil unrest can be confined to any given country;
without causing difficulties for their neighbours; then,
outside intervention is not necessary; as was the case,
during your Tamil rebellion.

Regarding Afghanistan, those murderous terrorists; hiding
behind the Holy Religion of Islam; chose to launch a deadly attack
on the most powerful nation on earth. The rest is history.

True that, I was just agreeing with your idea that there are always people who do want help coming from other countries.

We're always here to help

Yes, but in the final analysis, they must solve their own internal problems, for the
sake of their national pride.

In the case of the Taliban...they will never be militarily defeated. Lord Roberts
of Kandahar knew that well. Those hard-bitten warriors were a great pain in the side
of the British, during the reign of Queen Victoria.

A diplomatic solution is the only answer. I believe that this is possible.
Only time will tell...Pray for it...!

What are you guys's thoughts on Kony 2012? I'm not sure weather to buy into it, or call bullshit on this one.

Can there be a diplomatic solution? No, I don't think so.
They are a bunch of psychopaths. Killing each and every one is the only solution I can think of.
The then 19 year old Pakistani terrorist captured after the 2008 Mumbai attacks showed no remorse for killing 72 people. Not exactly the kind of person you can expect to negotiate with.

PS. Terrorist camps in Pakistan are a far worse threat to world peace.

Apparently people of Uganda have had some peace in the last 5 years. Kony could be in Congo or South Sudan right now. Killing Kony alone might not solve the problem.

The Taliban announced in Jan 2012 that they were prepared to take an important
step towards negotiations, by opening a political office in Qatar.

I don't think it's bullshit. Kony should be captured and brought to
trial at the Hague. However, we shouldn't be fooled into believing that
he is the only one responsible for recruiting child soldiers. There are
dozens for them, I am given to understand...

^True, I feel the biggest flaw of this campaign is that it's a tad too ideological. But I guess they needn't go into specifics and every possible outcome in the campaign. The point is to spread awareness and interest.

There's certainly nothing "bullshit" about it though.

Um, a lot of things are on my mind...
I have to study for accounting, plus I'm trying to get on with my journalism, plus I'm trying to write as well...all in a day's work...lol!

On to a more lighthearted subject... why do people keep saying Goodbye Lullaby was a flop? It was very successful and went platinum overseas which is uncommon in American artists today.
