People are so nosy in this society.
Have you heard about the people who are trespassing on the W35 bridge collapse. It is absolutley ridiculous how people seem to crave disaster. It makes me sick.
You would think that people would have the common sence and not to mention courtesy for the grieving people. These people are jeopardizing the investigation by haphazardly walking around and moving rubble.
A message to the people who can't respect the peace of the the people who are suffering or have died there... Go home!!
Sorry about the anger, but it really bothers me when people have no respect for others.

OPB "Wide Angle"
So I am watching this documentary on Turkey. It is very interesting, about women and their veiws on wearing the chador. It is really neat about how they are bringing ideas of fasion into their country while maintaining their tradintions.
They show how they are creating different color and patterned head scarfs. This is to allow some fasion but at the same time keep it simple enough to appeal to conservative people.
One model that was focused on would adhere to the dress code of the runway, but outside she wore non secular clothing.
The show was showing the split of how people belive they should present theirselves to the Islamic world. Non Secular and conservative sides.
Also after the show they interviewed a political cartoonist for a Turkish newspaper.
Here are some of his cartoons if you want to imagine:
Uncle Sam was sitting on a big elephant and was about to go into a building labeled "Middle East: Glassware"
This cartoon was showing that it is okay for america (western world) to come into the middle east, but be respectful. Don't be an elephant in a glass shop. If you aren't careful big problems can be created.
The next cartoon was President Bush pushing a snowman into the middle east with a sign around its neck that said "DEMOCRACY"
This cartoon showed that bring democracy into the middle east may not be the best. It will "melt" like a snowman would in the hot weather. Perhaps democracy could work, however it cannot be a clone of the western world. Changes would have to be done for it to work.

suicide bomber kills 28
It is so awful that the death tally for August is already at 101 because of the war. I have such a problem with this war. Yes I support the troops, I know that what they do for us is brave and that it is importaint, but this war needs to end. I am sick of hearing about so many people dying over something that I don't understand anymore. I try following news on the war but I must admit I don't understand anymore. I can't follow.
