ODT - Stephen Hawking on Isis & Syria

Posted 2nd September 2014 to the Otago Daily Times Dunedin



One of our great scientific minds Stephen Hawking  said something very interesting about The Crisis in Syria recently
He questioned that perhaps we can not really call our Human Species intelligent because no intelligent Species Exterminates itself.
I think Dr Hawkin has a valid point but probably more relevant when it comes to Climate and the Environment than Islamic factions.

The situation in Syria is really a modern version of the Musket Wars fought now between a mix of tribes all Heavily Armed By the good old US of A.
The only thing missing now is Smallpox and we have a perfect storm!

Meanwhile Russia Today commented that this was all the fault of the USA.... It seems Uncle Sam gave Russia a Headache a few Years ago in Afghanistan playing a similar game.
RT might be gloating Mr Putin more public support for “proper” warfare than Mr Obama who has to kiss up to this Congress and his base who put him in because they got a bit tried
Of seeing American Body Bags piling up.

But Let’s face it Annexation is out of the question and with all due respect to Mr Hawkin it’s not a problem that can be fixed by Astrophysics...
