The USA has accused Russia of interfering with the last american general elections. Now she's accusing China of withholding vital information regarding the corona virus.
Even if both accusations are well-founded , they put the accuser (USA) in an inferior position, that of the 'whining' victim. One asks oneself, how could that happen to the great american nation, a nation with the most powerful secret service in the world. Not pleasant at all.
The young couple Meghan and Harry.are chased by the Press and by all kinds of other circles, but one feels that it's actually Meghan that draws fire from all sides. Not fair.
Harry is not just another young man who falls in love; he's a member of the royal british family. He should have married , in my opinion, a british girl, but he didn't. He's chosen Meghan, who's american and divorced.
History repeats itself.:Edward (king Edward VIII) and Wallis Simpson (an american socialite divorcee).
True, Harry is not king and won't have to abdicate the throne. He probably won't even have to find a job to earn money like any commoner. He's still Prince, and has even retained the title of Royal Highness.
However, he should have learnt his lesson from his ancestor - when the chances are your choice isn't fully accepted by family, or society or both - there isn't much happiness waiting around the corner for you.

So true about Prince Harry. I truly hope they endure the test of time and make it to the finish line of death do them part and not end up divorced. I try to stay out of politics so I am not sure what is going on or happened previously between Russia and the United States. Whoever is in charge I trust God has them there for a reason and he is ultimately in control of it all. Looking back at biblical history some interesting characters were on the throne and all were used as God intended them to be used. I do pray for our leaders and am praying for the upcoming election here.

I hope so too for the young couple, but society can be merciless.
DeleteLook how they chased Diana till death. They wouldn't have dared do that if her lover was some english aristocrat and not the egyptian Doddy El Fayad.
In a way, Dayana was then, and Harry is now, utterly naive .
Regardless of what happened if it happened with Russia, America has a reputation to defend. She can't act just like any other country and play victim. Does she want to be the leader of the world or not, that's the question.
Trump has reached his target "Make America great again" only the other way around ! America had never ever since I am born had such a bad reputation of stupid people having voted for such a clown. Fortunately they are not all like that, I hate to generalize. Harry is a special case, he had an awful childhood and saw his mum being chased like a prey by the press and finally she was killed. It's even a miracle that he became such a nice boy. His mum hated "the firm" and I think he hates it too ! Imagine a 13 year old boy walking behind the coffin of his mummy and millions are watching each step ! what a nightmare.
ReplyDeleteHi Gattina,
DeleteI've mentioned two accusations made by the USA:
1. russian interference with the elections (made by Trump's opponents)
2. China's misbehaviour about the corona virus (made by Trump himself).
Both accusations are what we call "throwing the baby out with the bathwater" - the baby being the USA and its credibility in the world.
I am not able to understand the fixation on this young couple. Surely there are other events in the world for the media to cover. I find them no more interesting than the weather forecast! I am just happy that they left Canada.
ReplyDeleteThere are quite a few elements that make this couple a great source for juicy gossip.
DeleteI suspect, however, that Meghan,an actress by profession, likes to be in the attention of the public and does things about that - although it might ultimately turn against her.
"The USA has accused Russia of interfering with the last american general elections."
ReplyDeleteNow they are saying this did not happen. Of course, who do we believe? But for me it was hard to believe from the beginning. Russia is not all powerful and this is not the Cold War.
"Now she's accusing China of withholding vital information regarding the corona virus."
Who funded the Wuhan lab. That's interesting. Well, they say we did, the US. Why?
The issue is not whether the accusations are true or not , but the mere voicing of them which shows the USA as a weak country with an incapable security service.
DeleteOh dear on your thoughts of Harry's future happiness. I do love to see anything about them like the recent video of Archie's first birthday.
ReplyDeleteWell, what's not to love? They're young, beautiful and provide a lot of action and emotions to the Media viewers.
DeleteI like Meghan too.
ReplyDeleteShe's got charm and charisma. The camera likes her and brings out the best part in her appearance.
DeleteI don't know what to say about these things. President Trump isn't great in Europa.
ReplyDeleteThat's Ok;, Aritha; you don't have to have an opinion on everything.
DeleteWith a leader like we have in the US, what can you expect? And to land in a crisis like the one we are in now, being leaderless becomes a matter of life and death. As far as Harry goes, it's amazing to me that there still are royals in this world. I hope that Harry can find a way to free himself fully from that bond. But then, of course, there's the paparazzi! Love how you always raise thoughtful issues on your blog.
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid there are no leaders nowadays, only politicians, and I dislike them all.
DeleteI also find it amazing that royalty still exists; it's redundant, out of time and place. Most royals are unproductive and useless.
I wish Harry and Meghan well...Harry deserves happiness, I see nothing wrong with him following his heart. I hope peace of mind, love and happiness is his to keep and enjoy. I hope he and Meghan are able to follow their own path.
ReplyDeleteI loved the latest video released in celebration of baby Archie's firs birthday.
Keep taking good care, DUTA :)
Everyone deserves happiness; everyone deserves following one's heart. Harry, too, of course.
DeleteBut Harry 's not everyone,or at least so he was told. Neither he nor Meghan who're used to public attention, will accept to live an anonymous, quiet life. The paparazzi know this and will take full advantage of it.
So, I wish them the best but fear for the worst, unless they understand the danger and take action to prevent it.
I think they should have kept their former roles. But, times are-a-changing.
ReplyDeleteYou mean 'prince' and 'actress'? Don't worry, they're not going to give up these roles. It only looks like it. They need the easy money and the big attention.
DeleteI love Harry and Meghan to bits and hope they find what they need to be happy forever, given what they have let go. Although I'm not sure that being royal is all that great a life and that what they did was the right thing. He is, after all, sixth down and unless covid or a war knocks out the whole lot, I don't think he has to worry about returning as king.
ReplyDeleteAs for Trump, I hate the man, hate the whining, hate the narcissism and the dangerous things he does and says. America used to have a reputation. What we have now, if any, is pathetic.
I'm used to say that politicians are not worth of our strongest feelings : love and hate.
DeleteWhen talking or writing about them, I usually use weaker words such as dislike, resent (for hate).
So, here you are openly saying you hate Trump. I highly appreciate your honesty. Find it a bit hard, though, to connect between your very lovely figure and blog, and the feeling of hatred.
Royalty demands commitment,discipline.
It's not for everyone. There were and still are many scandals within royal families. I'm for abolition of royalty.
I hope Megan and Harry find a way to be happy.
ReplyDeleteWith God's will, all is possible, Mary.
DeleteMaybe we are just in this great unravelling and once all the things are exposed on all fronts, there is going to be a great arising of Truth and Goodness in our lands!!!
ReplyDeleteNicely put, Shayndel. And a great ptomise too- that of arising of Truth and Goodness. Amen!
DeleteHopeful.
DeleteI am not really into Harry and Meghan story, but I wish them all the best, such a beautiful couple! About the politics, I am more focused on our local situation, but of course Trump is a specific president, full of surprises for sure! Have a lovely weekend ☺
ReplyDeleteNaturally, local and near has priority.
DeleteHowever, we don't live in a vacuum,and whatever happens with the big powers does have an impact on our lives.
A lovely weekend to you, too!
This is really thought-provoking. I'm very glad to read your explanation and your POV about these topics.
ReplyDeleteAgain, I pray that God has a good ending in store for America! Thanks for sharing this interesting information.
Wishing you all the best!
Thanks for your kind words.
DeleteIndeed, sometimes I thought provoke myself and others.
Duta, I agree these days it's hard to now who and what to believe. That said, I do take exception to your description of the USA as whining because as a citizen here I must defend my country as I feel you would do the same for yours and so would others for their own. And, this does not mean I condone or accept everything the government is doing or has done or even will do in the future.
ReplyDeleteAs for Harry-Meghan, what they do is of little interest to me and I will not judge what should or should not have been done. Everyone has the right to make his/her own decisions.
I do understand your point.
DeleteHowever, to the world - the USA is not just another country , and Harry-Megan not just another couple.
They illicit interest, criticism, are asked to pay a price. The price is for the USA's aspiration to lead the world',and for the young couple's wish to stay in the public focus.
Our US leadership is a clown circus. Our president and his cronies are an inept bunch, and embarrassment to the world.
ReplyDeleteIt is sad that this is how you feel. Don't forget, though, that's not the one man that counts, but those millions that have voted for him, and might vote again for him - so, it's actually the unity of the nation that is at stake.
DeleteDUTA, it's about war. What we call the Deep State has been around for a while now. Some call it the Shadow Government. What we hear on the media is propaganda. The Deep State isn't just an American ruling elite, it's worldwide. Plato's cave allegory says it all. What they're showing us is all political theater.
ReplyDeleteI must confess the concept is new to me. The Deep State, is it a shadow, conspirational state based on Intelligence people and on oficcials in the government that influence policy and presidents?
DeleteTo me, a non american outsider, not involved in any politics, there are things that seem very strange. It's not only the two topics of Russia and China ,mentioned above, but also the affair of Hillary's emails, which in any other country would have been considered treason, and she put in jail, and yet she was encouraged to run for Presidency.
Anyway, you've made me think.
The crime syndicate goes way back in this nation. Have you heard Bob Dylan's new song, "Murder Most Foul?" Some believe it began with Kennedy's assassination. The song indicates that he's of this opinion. As for Hillary's emails, you're on target about the treason. Case in point about the Deep State. Those who are in the club get by with murder.
DeleteI looked up the lyrics of Dylan's song "Murder Most Foul". Such powerful words! Such a great ballad!
DeleteIt's about the assassination of J.Kennedy - an event that was most foul and paved the way to decay and deterioration of the nation.
I find it unbelievable that the USA has a leader who is so disrespectful and corrupt.
ReplyDeleteAbout the couple I wish them all the best.
As I've already mentioned before, there are sadly,no leaders nowadays, only politicians. And that's the case not only in the USA, but almost anywhere in the world, Marja.
DeletePoliticians are the root of all evil (like we say about money).
I have never thought that Trump's making "America great again", indeed, America in great depression, worse than great depression in the past.
ReplyDeleteThat is very sad. America and depression don't go well together. Something drastic has to be done to prevent further deterioration.
DeleteHi DUTA. It's me again! I’m just saying hi, stopping back by to check on you and to account for my absence.
ReplyDeleteI hope you had a good week and all is well with you. Wishing you a wonderful and Blessed weekend! Stay Safe, dear friend!
Thanks a lot.
DeleteWishing you the very Best!
Hey Duta, it's been too long since I visited your blog and I'm sorry.
ReplyDeleteI'm embarrassed by our leadership. Being from the deep south, many of my neighbors think he's doing a great job, but as the old saying goes, he's building too many walls and not enough bridges.
R
"..He's building too many walls and not enough bridges." - what a great saying!
DeleteI've learnt something new - thanks.
Oh, gosh. There is no Deep State! That is ridiculous. The world is laughing at the US. There are so many conspiracy theories, all meant to give them permission to keep their AK 47s. So needless. I'm happy to live in Canada. We've had such a cold spring. Climate Change is a real thing, though.
ReplyDeleteWell, the world would be a very dull place without conspiracy theories. People are free to believe whatever they want.
DeleteI just hope that Harry and Megan find a way to be happy.
ReplyDeleteTime will tell …
All the best Jan
I believe they are happy, but it's all those paparazzit that won't give up hunting them.
DeleteThank you for your kind words. The word 'genial' does a lot to me.
