I believe it is always important to draw attention to how any state will inflict unbelievable cruelties on any people if it suits its purpose.

Bird and insect numbers continued to plummet, coral reefs retreated, marine life dwindled. And those charged with protecting us and the world in which we live pretended that none of it was happening…. Continue reading “2012.. Worst ever Year for the Planet”
