The world is so small today, that news can be transmitted around the world seconds after it has happened, with instant assumptions of responsibility.
What has frightened me, is that as further details emerge is that this could happen anywhere, that Al-Quaeda have a long term goal and as a result they chose the place, time and method. They have the upper hand. The next act of terror will be unlike any that we have seen by them.

Once the west has bled the middle east dry of oil what kind of societies will be left? Looking at the news pictures of post-Iraq its hospitals, schools and housing were no bettter than that of a debt ridden third world country. I have yet to see evidence that everyone in Saudi has the same standard of living as you or I. With parts of America have already run dry of oil and its consumption shows no sign of slowing down, the exploitation of the middle east by the west only fuels the fire of Al-Quaeda fanaticism.

I momentarily experienced what looked like a plain text version of this page too, under IE6. Have reloaded and now it looks normal again.

Inky for President!

Is there an e-pilg type thingy tonight? If there is, I could pop in for a little while, fairly early-like.

I did update the site last night, so it might be your caches getting confused. Hit Reload if things look strange, and it should be ok.
