Political confusion

 People, at least it seems, have become accustomed to transparency and, above all, clarity regarding our everyday life circumstances. We want to know clearly which country we live in, what the state structure is, who the leaders are and also which organizations we are members of and what this means for us.

However, these clear parameters of our lives are slowly becoming blurred and confusion is also creating in our heads. Most of the countries of the European Union are in the military-defense pact we call NATO. They are supposed to be threatened at our external borders and they are supposed to feel safe within the military-defense pact.


This is confirmed by the very picture or map of NATO members. 
And we certainly find the now current Greenland and the formerly current Canada on the map of NATO members. As such, they are also supposed to be safe members, as they are supposed to be protected by Article 5 of the treaty, which is supposed to guarantee the slogan: "An attack on one NATO member is an attack on the NATO military-defense alliance", which also includes the United States of America (USA).

However, when we hear about a threatened military intervention in a NATO member by another NATO member or the annexation of one NATO country to another NATO country, the image of the military-defense function against other non-members begins to crumble. The military-defense alliance actually becomes a threat to the sovereignty and independence of individual countries within the military-defense pact and/or an opportunity to threaten other members, rather than a common defense against foreign enemies or non-members of the military-defense alliance.

 Perhaps the political alliance fog is even transforming into a clear picture of the threat within the joint military-defense pact or alliance itself, and is transforming into a looming threat of domination and subordination. And so the question arises again, who is our ally and who actually threatens us, or is the enemy, and encourages us to engage in a general debate about the usefulness of membership in an alliance or pact.

Politika in draginja

Obeti ali napovedi za letošnje leto spet niso najboljši kot se večkrat pokaže v vsakdanjem življenju. Politični  vrhovi posameznih tako imenovanih razvitih držav so več kot očitno pozabili, da je eden od pogojev za uspešno poslovanje, ki se odraža tudi v naši vsakodnevni košarici za preživetje, pravzaprav obdobje miru, ne pa vojne. Vojno stanje ali vojna nevarnost prinaša namreč dodatne obremenitve državljanov v obrambne namene. Samo vojno stanje pomeni uničevanje, ne samo življenj, ampak tudi premoženja in seveda tudi onemogočeno poslovanje. In seveda tudi manj pritoka denarja v državni proračun in večje državne izdatke. Tako se rušilna in uničevalna narava vojnega stanja projicira v rušilno in uničevalno moč gospodarstva in s tem tudi našega vsakdana. Vojna pomeni pomanjkanje dobrin in s tem tudi draginjo že osnovnih življenjskih potrebščin zaradi uničenja tovarn in polj. Vojna pomeni draga bivališča, saj jih je veliko ali celo večina poškodovanih ali uničenih. Vojna pomeni tudi ...

Which representatives would you vote for?

    We are once again in the time of resounding, glorious elections, when the people chose their representatives. Of course, the selection of people's representatives is always based on how well the candidates presented their programs to the wider masses. Of course, the selection of representatives is also based on what suits the broad masses of voters in these programs . Crowds of voters tend to like hearing stories and promises of their success, prosperity and peace. They are less willing to hear about other people's problems. This was also evident in this year's elections in the USA. A lot of people want to have their own interests and well-being in the first place in their country. Only after their needs are met would they deal with other problems and the well-being of others. Of course, this election story is also conditioned by the existing situation in the country. When a country lives in peace with other countries, it may think about ensuring peace for others as wel...

Are fruits and vegetables medicine

There is an increasing emphasis on healthy eating in our everyday lives. The human body can be compared to a machine that needs proper power supply or energy source to function. The source of energy is usually fats and sugars or carbohydrates. Very often, we are also advised to eat fruits and vegetables and not just bread and water. Energy-rich, because the human body also needs energy for its daily functioning, are usually sweets such as chocolates, cakes, cookies, etc. Fruits and vegetables are said to contain minerals and vitamins in addition to some fiber, so doctors very often advise eating certain types of fruits and vegetables when an illness occurs. The disease scurvy, which appeared in sailors, is said to have been forgotten for a long time. Thus, citrus fruits such as lemons and oranges or tomatoes were slowly added to the diet, as they are said to contain higher amounts of vitamin C. It is also recommended to consume vitamin C to strengthen the general natural immune or defe...
