Europe - 5,000,000 recorded
deaths per year: “War Refugees-displaced & migrants” 224,000 in 2015.
War is a terrible thing
for its losers. In today’s theatre of operations it seems everyone is a loser.
America is reeling from its legacy of invasion, torture and failure to realise
objectives. The EU has managed to alienate Russia over bungling interference in
its internal affairs. Russia is suffering under sanctions. Iraq, Syria, Libya,
Tunisia, Egypt, Iran and Saudi Arabia are embroiled in desperate struggles for
control and stability with little or no chance of success in the near future. Situations
mostly instigated by Western policy and by direct action.
This is the fruit of contemporary
politics - the “New World Order”
In the aftermath of
bloody battle displaced persons are despairing to escape the pain and fraught.
Some have nothing to lose and others have everything to lose.
For some, a drowning
death in frantic and horrific circumstances is on offer. Others must witness
the cruelty and utter barbarity of rejection, uncertainty, humiliation and
death after reaching the shores of those who have put them in the situation of
becoming “War Refugees.”
In watching the
abdication of the European Union’s responsibility towards fellow human beings
in their bleak, desolate and weary time of need is heart-breaking but not
surprising. Europe once again is embracing the darkness of turning a blind eye
to problems they helped create. Their leader’s obsession with credit, fiscal
power and austerity is blinding their very reason and purpose.
Such is the results of a
Europe centrally focused, selfish and cruel. Just like it has always been.
In the end we are what
we are, just like it has always been.
