Barbarism begins at home

Good Morning!

After the alarm about how pigs are treated in Denmark before slaughter, the Swedish news reports that still a lot of people desire danish pork. Danish meat is sold cheap in Swedish stores and people don't seem to see the connection between cheap meat and the treatment of the animals, or they just don't care. I have a feeling we´re dealing with carelessness. A human being just looking out for itself, saving a buck or two, regardless the suffering of our nature and other living things.

Song Dong got caught

An ordinary day just like this one Song Dong was on his way from Vietnam to LA. What no one knew was that he was carrying a big secret and burden.

Song Dong was smuggling 14 rare birds on his socks!
He had put them in some fabric, and attached them to his socks. Sort of like this:



All the birds survived, even though the flight was 15 hours long. Apparently there is a big black bird market in the US, and Song Dong is not the first guy to get caught. This kind of crime can give you 10 years in prison. In spite Song Dong being caught this way he claims he is innocent.

I only have a few questions, and that is, what about the birds? were they quiet all the time? sedated? where will they go now?




well, bye for now.

The Things We Don't Mention.......In the UN

Good Morning!

Last summer I went to the head quaters of the UN in NYC. I wanted to take a guided tour and learn more, I did not learn anything new, but I asked my guide a question which made me think about something. And that is the things we don't mention in the UN.

1) Taiwan - A sovereign state or not?
2) China - Tibet - An occupied state?
3) The Israel and Palestine conflict. This is a problem that is being discussed, BUT you really have to watch your tounge. Say the wrong thing and you get clowns attacking you.

Can you think of more issues?

I think there is a problem if there are a few things you cannot mention in the UN. I thought this was one of the points with the whole organization?, to prevent armed conflicts. Maybe the way to prevent armed conflicts is to ignore and tiptoe around them, to make sure you don't anger the wrong nation.

Don't get me wrong, I do think there are a lot of good things with the UN. A lot.
