Our sixty years of freedom makes some believe we can have a booze party forever. Reality strikes sooner than we think. China is reeling under a huge natural disaster, but they are so organised in times of peace & disaster. The leaders swing into action and lead from the front. God forbid, if a similar calamity befalls us, it will be used as an election issue, with most not lifting a little finger.
It is time we valued our freedom and have self-discipline. We have to agree at least on the basics to secure our future. We are neck-deep in oil dependency with our mouth just above danger level. We have no clear policies on terrorism except as slew of opportunists taking advantage of any incidents. The common man is the hero knowing he has none to look forward to and most living by the day.
It is for us to bury our differences to lend whole-heated resolve to confront the culprits. Whoever is involved should be put away for good. There should not be hue & cry once they are found guilty.
There is no easy out! Most of the terrosist leaders are afraid of peace as they will be irrelevant. Let us find & isolate them!
