Once in a while I feel the urge to write something about politics and today is one of those days. Holland was once upon a time a nation with ambition and tolerance. Today we are ruled by right wing Christian politicians that rule with the word of God in the back of their minds. I have nothing against God, but I hate the fact that our politicians and community only use that word when it suits their agenda. All of our top guys are in China to support our athletes, while at the same time all values we represent are not part of Chinese politics and society. We close our eyes for the mighty Midas. War between Russia and Georgia and we don't speak out loud. No we have to talk about a politician with a activist past that broke the law decades ago for things he believed in. Later he saw that that wasn't the way for a peaceful change in modern society and he became a politician. So my question is what is worse? Politicians that support criminal governments that do not comply with international laws (Guantanamo bay, Tbilisi, China etc.) or a man that was part of a terrorist organization in the past fighting for human rights and a greener future? For me it both sucks and the hypocrite behavior of our politicians and community starts to annoy me big time. I suggest we all focus on things we can make a change at. Education, Health care, Economy, Infrastructure and a very focussed national and international security department that makes sure killers,frauds and other people that do not respect the right of others are stopped. This instead of telling people what to think, smoke, eat, do and so on. This climate we have created is the fertile soil for hate and terrorism. Am I the only one that thinks like this?
