Serpents


Life in Cold Blood - episode 4 - Sophisticated Serpents
"Red and black, venom lack; red and yellow can kill a fellow."
David Attenborough teaches us the difference between the non-venomous king snake, and the venomous coral snake.
Robert Fisk thinks* there is so much hypocrisy from the West about polls that we shouldn't be so cynical about President Assad's upcoming re-election.
I saw the picture of Michelle Obama with the sign, "My husband has killed more schoolgirls than Boko Haram ever could", and initially thought it was very good, but then thought back to how horrifying that the similar response last August to Assad's chemical attack was to post memes of Hillary Clinton or John Kerry with some hilarious comment about how they were hypocrites because the US used chemical weapons in Vietnam.
