Uncertain borders on Sunday

Day 8 2017, Sunday, the day of rest, the sleeping-in day, an ideal day to recharge for the challenges of the upcoming week. I get out of bed every Sunday with the hope that for once there’s no news, that nothing notable has happened, that there are no baffling messages and that all those believers, even for just a day, live up to the message of their books; love each other. But while Israeli Embassy employees try to hassle foreign politicians, who have even the slightest sympathy for the Palestinians, in other countries through all kinds of secret and sordid practices, using democracy subversive local moles to discredit them, and the Putinist's, through unguarded corridors and poorly protected cables, try to increase the chaos, at the German town Bremerhaven 3500 soldiers arrive, with the largest load American military equipment since the end of the cold war. From Fort Drum, New York, 1800 America defenders get on the plane and a battalion with 24 Apache helicopters and 400 soldiers from Fort Bliss, Texas, leave toward the border with Russia. It must deter Putin and his comrades. . Meanwhile, a family member safely departed from the port of Istanbul, with a Turkish built ferry, without refugees, to deliver it in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. If you can cross the ocean with such a, propelled by natural gas, pont shuttle, the future services from Horseshoe Bay with American asylum-seekers, who want to flee to the free West by Alaska, can be carried out in complete safety. While we here in Portugal, with the foreknowledge that there were three days for an Angolan footballer, await the outcome on how many days of national mourning we will have because one of the founders of the current democracy and former president of the Portuguese Republic, Mário Soares, deceased at the age of 92, the negotiating outcomes with the striking, through employment contracts attracted , hospital staff has become known and they now also be paid for their efforts, the human rights activists in Iran are arrested per dozen and in the Netherlands it is national wide news that a woman has fallen with her bike because a glacial cycle path wasn’t properly sprinkled with salt. In other words, waking up on Sunday morning remains a risky business, unless we have a power outage, well, then it remains peacefully quiet.
