Today we learn that the coalition of the bombers have killed dozens of ordinary people in airstrikes in Syria. Over the past twenty years the Royal Air Force have murdered, maimed, and burned tens of thousands of ordinary people in Yugoslavia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya and Syria - that is, old and young, frail and healthy, male and female, ordinary people like you and me, have suffered and died, burned and tortured, so our representatives may play their power games. Overwhelmingly, the politicians of the Conservative Party and the Labour Party and the Liberal Democrat Party have supported this butchery as they set up their Welfare/Warfare Police State.
Sadder still, the Church is largely silent.
Even sadder still, the Archbishop of Vichy, Justin Welby, supports this butchery, doing Caesar's work, the Devil's work rather than Christ's.
No doubt he will tell us that the deaths of these innocents is a price that he and his masters are prepared to pay.
