Arms to Arabia

Silence since mid-July! It is hard to keep a blog going. Not that much has changed in three months. We have had a grave warning on climate change, but as usual most people seem to ignore it. And there was the horrible consulate murder, but everybody should have known since the 1920s that the Saudi regime is barbaric. The bizarre thing is that the West has taken it as an ally and treats Iran as our enemy. President Macron has just made a speech criticizing Germany for cutting off arms sales, which he says have nothing to do with the murder of Khashoggi; never mind about the pretext, we should never have armed Saudi Arabia in the first place.
