What say you now of Democracy, Wisdom, Truth and Knowledge?

This is very quick, short blog, in the writing of which i find myself quite frankly at a loss for words to adequately express my utter dismay at the drastic turn of events that the world has  seen in less than 2 weeks.



Trump America "officially puts Iran on notice, for  firing a missile, AFTER the TRUMP ADMINISTRATION needlessly closes  its borders  with Iran and  its  main sphere of  influence countries. 


"On notice?"

What does that mean? Telegraph media net had this to say..

The exact meaning of being “on notice” wasn’t defined, but Trump already is on record as being critical of the various promises, payments and commitments made to Iran by both the U.S. and the United Nations as “being weak and ineffective.”

I had a very quick internet search for "on notice" in the same vein that "representation" has a strong diplomatic message when referring to political language. I am sad to say I can find no reference to the term at this time, so i'm going to conclude that this is something of a "Trumpian" truth and very much a knee jerk PR related statement. However, watch this space. 

Its also worth noting that the USA and IRAN are both still bound by treaties, despite what The Trump sputters in outrage into his evening coffee, thus at this stage it is the USA not IRAN that would be in major breach if they start hostilities. 

All in all we've figuratively taken a few steps closer to midnight... and that after 30'seconds just recently... 



...with any other individual incumbent in the Whitehouse this might be seen as unfortunate. With The trump its down right terrifying. America may yet rue the day....
