It is so very depressing watching Americans especially, but Westerners generally collectively freak-out over ISIS & the infinitesimal chance that they might be killed in a terrorist-attack. Many of whom were around on the 11th September 2001, did see how we rushed then to surrender our hard-fought freedoms and abandon our liberal values, should have learned from that awful experience.
Last time I held out any smidgen of hope that we had learned, and that the post-9/11 madness had finally subsided, was with the election to the US presidency of one Barack Hussein Obama. I was quickly disabused of that quaint notion. And almost eight years later, we've still learned...nothing.
Well I say, we. Donald J Trump learned. Our political leaders learned. Learned how easy it is to cow the masses with the simple suggestion of fear. Be afraid. Be VERY AFRAID !!!
