Could this Palestinian song be the UK’s Christmas No. 1?
The UK's official Christmas number one race kicks off today, and among the hopefuls is the charity single Lullaby - a reworking of a Palestinian folk song.

Really depress yourself use google street view in war torn areas of world. Religion - invisible; destruction - invisible
Just people going about lives, Park land, vehicles, roads, usually brown rocky ground, space.
yet humans dying, bombs fall, whatever little luxuries they had destroyed. So sad!

🚜FARMAGEDDON🌾
The story of what's REALLY going on in farming. A story far more complex than the conventional wisdom.
This isn't just (or even mainly) about inheritance tax.
It's about a cascade of challenges & crises that could ultimately threaten food security.

interesting data in these pages. Trend is obvious, but of course there would be less infrastructure in 1980 and ~6000bce Noah would have had a lot more problems with floods!!

religion - such a strange (and horrifying) concept. Just been born but the artist already has Him hanging on a cross en.muzeo.com/art-print/sa...
