After the latest bombing attack in Syria where chemical weapons killed and maimed hundreds of people, countries all over the world condemned Assad , the man thought to be directly responsible.
All of that was essential I think but the rhetoric coming from the USA is I believe dangerous.
Whilst I was away I watched Fox News on the ships television and found it extremely worrying.
Interviewers asked..."Is this normal?" of many of Trumps utterances.
That was before the latest horror.
Descriptions of the White House internal fighting reveals why so many of his officials get sacked.
Trump says he will make a decision today and the threat clearly carries the very real risk of bombing. Any nuclear weapons would carry their own horror with them.
The quiet world I came home to this week is unlikely to experience any of these horrors but we are living in a smaller world than it used to be.
Putin, Trumps friend isn’t saying much just now....not in public anyway, but even he must not want a full scale war...
Trump , glorying in his power is making dire threats. This is I think intended to take away or deflect some of the domestic trouble he is in after the Stormy revelations of last week. A description of life in the West Wing tells of daily rows with his officials...he needs a distraction.
It’s all very very scary...not a situation anyone ever thought we would live through. It’s time for prayer. Now!

We face the situation of a lunatic holding the reins of power in the supposed most powerful democracy in the world. And the American people put him there?
What were they thinking?
