when news was easy

Most of us know more now than we did before when news
was simpler such as the Soviet Union bad- and Mao in China  
swam across the river I have just been reading about Sinai
a place I thought consisted of sand, goats and Bedouins on
white horses, but there has been a slow war there going
back a long time. We didn’t and were not told that Islam has
many aspects and sects – just like us- and there is fighting
amongst them, usually about power and money, religions is
the glue that binds together the rest. The young Muslims in
Europe, who go to fight for IS they are fooled into believing
they fight for a cause and the will be dispensed of when no
longer needed. In Sunnis eye, they are foreigners.
We live in paralysed world we don’t which way to sway do
let us follow the money whoever is in power.
