Today is a New Day.

January 6th 2020 (6/1/20).

A day on which NATO is going to hold an emergency meeting. To discuss the crisis with Iran.

If they get time I suggest they also discuss the crisis in the Horn of Africa. The crisis in North Africa and the crisis in the Sahel Belt.

Somehow I doubt that though. NATO is clearly not an organisation made up of strategic thinkers.

I of course will be forced to miss proceedings.

Ironically I will be spending the day in a supermarket. Unstacking rather than stacking the shelves.

So can someone please record it for me.

Apparently my "Training Officer" is going to have a real tough time.

Explaining why they ever thought they were qualified to do my job.

Take my money and live my life.

Rather like in the Captaincies before the locals got all nibbly. Or in the time of the Robber Barons during the US' Gilded Age. A small group of very rich people who own the infrastructure got together and decided this is the rule we have to live by now. Not only didn't we tell them to introduce that rule we probably don't even know who they are. We certainly didn't get a vote to put them in a position where they can decide what the rules are. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cW9H4M6eQqc (1913 Massacre, Woody Guthrie, Asch, Audio, Topic).
