...deserve. I have just come back from the polls, where I voted to turn over a new leaf in our history, hoping that a new government will talk not only about young people but also to young people. Most of all, we must not fall victim to the system. Sooner or later we will enter the power structure and have the opportunity to change the status quo.

The fear people lived in every day after World War II is not something that has been completely erased. Sooner or later, whether by the hand of Iran, North Korea, Pakistan or even the U.S., those evil creations are going to be used again. I do not fear that the human race will wipe itself out. Our species is very good at surviving. But I do find it sad that reason...
