After reading various comments by all sorts here, it is obvious that many do not know history nor do they understand the consequences of decisions made in the past that are now coming home to roost. Those decisions being approved by whatever political group was dominate at the time. What we see today is no different that what was seen 2 millenia ago and many times since. The problem is a "whole of society" problem and while we are tearing ourselves to shreds over "political" and "social" and "religious" differences, we all contribute to the implosion of society in general. This is the lesson from history and as long as we do not learn, we repeat again and again those same mistakes.
