Peace in the Anti-World

When you read newspapers, which are essentially about conflicts between ideologies and people and money and power and things like that, you can't help taking a position. Sometimes you are sure where you are, and sometimes you are not so sure whether you are right. This uncertainty is the wavering of your moral compass as it searches for direction through the hazy mist of information.

But you know one thing, there is a kind of short-cut you can use. There are not many, but there are quite a few people, if you look at their track-record, they have been consistently wrong, just by checking what they say you can find the position you must avoid.

Arundhati Roy is someone who is just great at it- here she is at The Times of India., ranting against an imminent genocide.

But still there are some things I don't know who is in the right, such as Tom or Jerry, Godzilla orthe Dinosaur, Predator or the Alien (or is it the Terminator?), and very importantly, Martians or the Earthlings.

I am sure Arundhati Roy will raise her voice on these issues also and save the world and establish us all on the One Person Nation.
