Russia u0027s Neurotic Invasion

Must I give way and room to your rash choler?

And on this we must agree there is no speech that justifies mindless violence.

Making North Korea pay a high economic cost for its rash behavior should be considered as well.

We believe it is incumbent upon you, Mr. President, to save the situation, to avoid this headlong rush to catastrophe.

To this end, those responsible for the mindless violence occurring daily should be unreservedly condemned.

Consequences which derive by such an unreasonable conduct might create a dangerous situation for the region.

Contrast that then with the world of modernity, a world in which people are living longer lives, maybe even more secure lives, more sheltered from random everyday violence.

The West is not about to declare war on Russia for the sake of a Georgia whose credibility has been greatly eroded by its president s irresponsible behavior.

Like a bad driver, a nation that looks left and right but never ahead is bound to crash.

In a changing world, with its dynamic regions, it is surely unwise to lock into place arrangements that may reflect today's circumstances, when tomorrow may confront us with very different needs.

The financial sector s inexcusable recklessness, given free rein by mindless deregulation, was the obvious precipitating factor of the crisis.

On one side are the moral hazard scolds, claiming that one of the major responsibilities confronting policymakers is to establish incentives that demonstrate that imprudent behavior does not pay.

The growing intolerance and increasing senseless violence within the home and in communities at large have led many to question the very mores of the society in which we live.

That trip further cemented the notion that the Hatoyama government was at root anti American in the mindless way that former South Korean President Roh Moo hyun was.

Employment in construction and related industries is collapsing, as Americans and foreigners recover from their fit of irrational exuberance over housing prices.

But it is also not the mindless preacher of fiscal austerity that it is accused of being and it should start taking the lead in managing the crisis, rather than holding up the rear.

No doubt, his regime revels in all the historic forms of populism messianic leadership, anti American rhetoric, disregard for constitutional forms, drunken spending, and state orchestrated popular mobilization to fill squares and jeer at supposed enemies.

In short, killings, massacres of innocent civilians and senseless violence of all kinds are still daily occurrences in that country, and this poses the risk of derailing the process of peaceful transition that was so difficult to undertake.

Especially disturbing is his statement regarding the arbitrary killing of thousands of civilians, which is based on conjuncture rather than solid facts and can fall in the category of wild accusation unbecoming of a trained lawyer and a United Nations official entrusted with a serious mission.

While we have noted recent positive developments, may I conclude by calling for continued relentless efforts on the part of the international community as a whole to make the best possible use of existing and future instruments in order to put an end to the uncontrolled accumulation of illicit small arms and light weapons, so as to help prevent senseless violence in future.

The financial sector s inexcusable recklessness, given free rein by mindless deregulation, was the obvious precipitating factor of the crisis. The legacy of excess real estate capacity and over leveraged households makes recovery all the more difficult.

What is driving this weirdly disinhibited decision making? Could the widespread availability and consumption of pornography in recent years actually be rewiring the male brain, affecting men s judgment about sex and causing them to have more difficulty controlling their impulses?
