LAST week’s horrors in France are a sad reflection of how sick certain people can be when in conflict with other faiths. Nothing new of course, it’s been going on for thousands of years and will continue for many more to come.

Because modern technology, TV, film etc, can bring it into your own living room, it makes it more terrifying.

During the First World War you knew your enemy, also in WW2. Every other conflict since has been between countries that have had nothing to do with this country.

The real crime of these terrors – London/Paris/New York etc – is simply because the UK and USA cannot stop interfering in the wars of other lands that have no direct threat to our shores in the very beginning.

Now, after so many decades, we are now in the front line of these barbaric, murderous attacks, possibly for many years to come.
