Our Crazy World †Technology, Iraq and Hiv/AIDS Essay

Our earthly concern today is a crazy bingle, in many ways. It is so diametrical to what it used to be. The advancement of technology, coupled with such(prenominal) things as HIV/ tin or terrorism and Americas retaliation (and the Iraq War), combines to form a mind boggling, and somewhat depressing environment for champion to live in.With videodisks and DVD players, Playstations 1s and 2s, and even old fashioned things such as videos, cds, and computers, technology easily confuses the innocent bystander.Then in that location is the bad billet of technology (although some would argue that computers and DVDs ar the bad side) chemical warfare, weapons of stilt destruction and so on. why do people create such things? I suppose the upshot is greed. As a perfect example we maintain Saddam Hussein. He kills and suppresses his own people presumably because of greed) and then openly defies America (I vocalize sarcastically).Then on the other hand theres Bush. Hes not exactly evil (or is he?), but he is greedy and moronic. He announces that America is gonna kill Saddam and free the Iraqi people, meanwhile hes designateing that he has Iraq and its resources, and is one step closer to global domination. There are rumours of his belonging to the Illuminati, a secret organisation which controls our thinking and is aiming to ram over the world.So, who does one support in the Iraq spotlight? Which incoherent miser? My answer to that is rather than side with anyone, one can either totally ignore it, or decide to side with peace.The wonderful thing is that, being neither an Iraqi nor an American (I am in fact South African), I am able to emit my distaste for these two particular people without being shot, as Iraqis would have during the war, or possibly outcast as an American.However, Americans would have no discernment to ostracize me unless they actually like and support Bush, for I dont dislike Americans, I dislike greedy andlying people who exertion a situa tion to their own good.Just look at the situation big powerful Bush gives Iraq a whole bunch of weapons of mass destruction (to his own advantage) and then a few years subsequently he complains that Iraq is a threat so he decides to play soldiers and take it all back again, killing a few people in the process.All that negativity about Bush probably makes me sound pro-Saddam, which I am definitely not. To me, he is the epitome of evil. If it came down to it, I think I would be happier if Saddam was killed rather than Bush.Of course there is to a fault the deeply depressing part of our crazy world, HIV/ aid.While we cut for sure that someday Saddam and Bush will hit the put, AIDS may never go away (not to be bearish or anything).Unless a cure is found, it seems the only way to stop AIDS is education in prevention. And then people actually have to precaution enough. It may seem strange to some people, but living in Africa I know what can happen. Some witch doctors actually inflic t having intercourse with a virgin to cure AIDS.One thing that in truth gets to me is when people say Oh, AIDS isnt that bad, its good universe of discourse control. I then commonly ask them if they would have the same meet if someone close to them contracted AIDS. Would they simply tell their dying love one that they are sorry she/he has AIDS, but there are simply too many people on this planet and her goal is not really that much of a loss anyway? That usually gets them thinking.So, what are we to do, with all this confusing and depressingstuff (for lack of a better word)? It may not sound so wonderful, but I guess we should just plod on and hope it all gets to a greater extent understandable and less depressing
