Middle East explained.
I try to avoid the glib and simplistic when it comes to politics, but a friend, Les Mitchell-Hynd posted this on facebook and I thought it worth giving it a wider audience.
There. All explained.
Having looked on line for a copy I’m not sure if the credit should be Aubrey Bailey or Richard A Jones so I’ll give both the benefit of the doubt.

About TanGental
My name is Geoff Le Pard. Once I was a lawyer; now I am a writer. I've published several books: a four book series following Harry Spittle as he grows from hapless student to hapless partner in a London law firm; four others in different genres; a book of poetry; four anthologies of short fiction; and a memoir of my mother. I have several more in the pipeline.
I have been blogging regularly since 2014, on topic as diverse as: poetry based on famous poems; memories from my life; my garden; my dog; a whole variety of short fiction; my attempts at baking and food; travel and the consequent disasters; theatre, film and book reviews; and the occasional thought piece. Mostly it is whatever takes my fancy.
I avoid politics, mostly, and religion, always. I don't mean to upset anyone but if I do, well, sorry and I suggest you go elsewhere.
These are my thoughts and no one else is to blame. If you want to nab anything I post, please acknowledge where it came from.
I have also seen this on Face book and agree very succinct.

Ugh. Oddly enough, I think this about sums up the situation here in the U.S. as well.

Mud made clear. Why can’t sensible people like Aubrey Bailey be in charge of foreign affairs?

Appreciate the educational angle, Geoff. Another factor might be their need to empty the coffers in order to justify the frantic austerity drive.

When will our bellicose little country stop spending money it doesn’t have on ordnance and hardware it doesn’t need.
