SIR - We are slowly, but surely, blowing this lovely world of ours apart.

The Middle East is doing its very best. Afghanistan, The Gaza Strip, Kuwait, Libya, to name but a few. The Russians and Ukraine, seems to be the beginning of a new Cold War and every time a new conflict starts America sends John Kerry and Mr Cameron goes as well to talk to the Powers that Be, but they are wasting their time.

The people they should be talking to are the different heads of religion, because most of these conflicts are motivated by the clash of religions, and until we get them together to tell all the different sects THOU SHALT NOT KILL we shall continue on the slippery slope.
