The same TV presenters who said they were afraid that as president, Trump would drag the world into war… are the same news presenters who cried about the children being gassed in Syria and began beating drums along with the wail of why America wasn’t doing anything to put an end to this… though they may have privately been advocating taking in more refugees.”

David has studied history and political science at Melbourne University. His thesis was written on how the utilisation of Missile Defence can help to achieve nuclear disarmament. His interest in history was piqued by playing a flight simulator computer game about the Battle of Britain, and he hopes to one day siphon the earnings from his political writings into funding the greatest prog-rock concept album the world has ever seen.
