Crap

Felt like crap this afternoon - baby kicking inbetween (practise) Ctractions. Came home - what is maternity leave for if not for these situations?

I can only see two outcomes to the Israeli habit of killing Palestinian leaders - one is that they will be having many more bombings in Israel. Suicide bombers don't need leadership or infrastructure, so the loss of leaders only serves to inspire them with revenge motivation. The other is that the Israeli's will have no-one to negotiate peace with, even if they ever get to that point. I can't see any future peace in the region, its actually like the Americans and Israeli's are no longer interested in peace, just in what they can get in the way of land. And I used to be so pro-Israeli too...

And then to make sure there are semi-complex issues to grapple with, there's the foreshore and seabed thing here. It seems to me that any issue that unites the tribes and the Act party must be unusual to say the least. I have no idea why the Labour party has chosen this course of action - but I must be surrounded by bleeding heart liberals or something - surely someone thinks this is a good solution? Who are they - how many votes are we talking about?? I see the head girl (HC) is not on holiday at the moment, politics must be hotting up!
