ًWhat Goes on in the World

ًWhat the hell goes on in the glob?

Anyone follows the news these days feels sick and much disturbed because we hear news about the killing of innocent people all over the world. Bloody attacks carried by presumably anonymous organizations and by individuals who suddenly shift their mindset and become violent.

A person alone cannot judge what goes on, the media do not always tell the truth or rather, they tend to refer to the perpetrator or criminals whom we do not know as viewers. But those behind the inhuman attacks worldwide must stop and think again about whether this is the right way to achieve their goals!

But we can be certain that the ones behind the horrific and tragic events endure something dolorous and painful so that they react that much violence. A conclusion that I put forward to any ordinary person.

My call to all parties involved in the conflict worldwide to stop the violence and think again of the everyday price the civilians pay in the zones of conflicts and elsewhere in the world. Nevertheless, we must keep in mind the fact that extremism and fanaticism are categorically rejected all down the way no matter who is concerned.

We should remember that nobody is spared from extremism or fanaticism. One religion should not be labelled as catalyst to violence and disrespect to human rights and dignity. But I admit that some fanatics use the religion to achieve their ends. Yes, we have a long way to go to bring about the needed change that live up to modernity and the world of today where change is the only constant

If we do not change ourselves by determination and strong will, others will not be able to help us to change to the better. .

One final word I would like to say is that we are not in a world where the news and the events are necessarily steered and manipulated by the media, because media tell what goes on and they cannot lie, however, in good cases the mass communication outlets influence the decision of the Governments as to how to react to an event. Media should try to be objective aftermath the violence.
