Iraq attack

Another stage in the disagreement between members of the elite in Iraq and the USA has begun. Another wave and form of attack. The people of the world watch as new suffering is inflicted on the people of Iraq. Very few people wish to see the current ruling Iraqi elite maintain power. But many people have grave fears, that ordinary Iraqis will continue to suffer horribly, and that international politics will not grant them their freedom.

Positive news?

For those of you who consider peace protests to be, at best, a pointless waste of time: I missed the protest which is presumably going on in town this lunchtime, because I was giving blood.

Deaf aid

Apparently, I really was hard of hearing. Because when I put on my brand new digital deaf aid, suddenly, I realise that I really do type and talk very loudly :-(
