I Don't Love

What's going on with the world? Why do we hate so much?

I hate death, destruction, curtailment of civil rights, unprovoked attacks, injustice - and they've all happened in the news today:

• Hideous, unthinkable terrorist attacks in Mumbai - the terrorists claim to be targeting anyone with a British or US passport (that's code for: white people).
• Terrorist threats against the subway network in New York, brought to you by our friends in Al Qaeda.
• Madness ensuing in Thailand, stranding thousands of foreigners trying to enter and leave - and enjoy! - the country.
• Iran has just released another rocket into the solar system - apparently it's a "satellite". I wonder what the plans for this satellite are?
• Russia is telling everyone to back the hell off pretty much everything it does.
• China's 2nd richest man has disappeared in mysterious circumstances for "corruption". People get the bullet for white collar crimes over there.
• Research in Brazil shows that a young person is 30 times more likely to be murdered in Latin American than in Europe. Next stop for me travel-wise... Brazil. No, really.
• British and Spanish journalists covering the Somalian pirate situation have been abducted.

And the list goes on. Australia is currently facing huge issues in terms of our ability to affect women who are victims of domestic violence, and the manner in which our protective services deal with these situations.
