A Handful of Tyrants
By Ewan

A handful of tyrants,
the complacency of fools
replacing laws and government
with a set of playground rules.
He who shouts the loudest
is the only voice that's heard,
above the sound and fury,
we must take them at their word.
But The Word is changing daily,
we don't know what to believe,
they're playing Liars' Poker
with five aces up their sleeve.
We hope, and cross our fingers
and wish the noise would cease:
be careful what you wish for
is not post-nuclear peace.

Unbelievable hey? What worries me most of world leaders are that they are idiots.

It's madness and most of us
It's madness and most of us can't believe it's real, if it wasn't for the risk to people's lives, it would be a comedy. He who shouts the loudest, hits the hardest, indeed, just like in nursery school.

Just what I think Jane - it
Just what I think Jane - it would be funny if it wasn't all such a tragedy for the people in the countries being hit.
Trump trying to get credit for re-opening a waterway which wasn't even closed two months ago, before he started his war of choice. Now he's claiming it's the ninth war he's ended, apparently forgetting he was the one that started it !

On the news yesterday,
On the news yesterday, Hegseth proudly saying (despite all evidence) that he had read the NT so described reporters trying to get some truth from him and Trump as being like pharisees hoping to trip Jesus up with their questions!
