I think it is our duty to help the vulnerable. I don't care about politics in other countries but I do care when I hear of vulnerable people being wiped out in genicide, people being beheaded or stoned for their religious belief and aid workers being killed for helping the sick, bewildered and homeless.
Unfortunately apathy and saying its not our concern, allows the dictators to become stronger. They with hold basic living expectations like water and electricity so normal peace loving people are blackmailed to join their cause to rule the country. Then before you know it, these dangerous people have the means, money and armoury to wreak havoc outside their borders and attack other countries.
I take solace, that the ordinary people can change things but need the means and the spirit to do so.
In our recent riots when the youths attacked and looted in the streets, the police tried to being order, but the broom brigade rose in disgust out of the ashes. Normal people had enough, It was wrong. They took to the streets and began to clean up with their brooms and marigolds and shamed the offenders into looking at their actions and stopped them dead in their tracks.
That's the spirit, that needs to be bought alive in each of these countries so they can decide their future, they can have a country to be proud of and they can vote freely to decide how its run.
We have to help these people or we have leant nothing of our past. Its our duty to do so or World War 3 will break out and God / Allah, whoever you worship, forbids that ever happens.
Time to hand the brooms out and take away the armoury of the bullies and terrorists.
