Do they know what they are doing?

The world is becoming increasingly restless and it shows in the high-profile wierd-ass things that have been happening around the world.

The protestors for the torch relay. Its just a torch relay and already it has garnered so much wrong attention. Actually with all these actions, don't they realise that they might just be pissing China off? I wonder though what might happen at the actual olympics itself if already a torch relay has gone so wrong, even to the extent that the route in San Fran had to be diverted in a cat-and-mouse situation. Where is the honor and glory in that? So what might happen during the Olympics? And if it does happen will there be a tremendous backlash from China and who knows, spark the start of Cold War II? scary....

What about robbery at the airport from our neighbours to the north? I mean given that 911 has happened, most airports around the world has stepped up on security to prevent another terrorist attack has happened. Then how on earth can this robbery happen that resulted in injuries and a large sum of money stolen? Its quite apalling to think of what might have happened if some other organisation took advantage of this lax in security.

Not that we ourselves are any better. I mean how on earth can a person escape from a prison in our little isle.. let alone a Internal Security one... and from the toilet no less? The guards ought to be watching more shows like CSI, Prison Break and Crime TV and learn from past mistakes and experiences! I mean good lord.. and its been so long and we havent found him yet? SHEESH...

Finally, the circus that is the US presidential votes coming up and the battle between clinton and obama. I was just reading an article on yahoo that mentioned that polls done on the supporters have revealed that 1/3 of supporters from each of the camp (clinton and obama) will vote for McCain should the other party be the Democratic nominee... So essentially, the Deomcrates are handing the Presidential seat to the Republicans on a silver platter. All this fighting and stubborness is really getting nowhere and its amazing they don't see the danger upcoming in the actual race itself and who their real competitor is.

McCain must be watching this with glee now..

Do they really know what they are doing?!?!??!
