► Parliament vote ends UK plans for strike in Syria
By Mark Hosenball and Oliver Holmes - LONDON - Prime Minister David Cameron's plans for joining a potential military strike on Syria were thwarted on Thursday night after Britain's parliament narrowly voted against a government motion to authorize such action in principle. Commentators said it was the first time a British prime minister had lost a vote on war since 1782. | Live Coverage

Can you feel it? We live in the modern age, equipped with the technology and equipment of war, but if all of it is controlled by the inhuman forces, then all the advances in technology will destroy the human life itself and also our fellow human beings. Tragic, is not it?
In my fantasy writing, I felt I saw three men, they were women rapist. (American, English and French) would rape a pretty girl from the Middle East (Syria). A good man would protect her. (Russia). And the people who were passing around them were just silent, because they were afraid, maybe? (UN : Baannnn....nah!)
I was waiting for what would happen to that pretty girl and a good man. While waiting I prayed. I prayed while waiting.
But I also was estimating the possibility that the security guard around them did not help her from the rape plan, but even they also raped her. (NATO)
Well, I do not understand what is being taken into consideration by Cameron, but apparently it's not about the cancellation of dinner party between a man and his secret lover because he suddenly reminded by sweet memories with his beloved wife, maybe?

No, this is not my pen name. These are two words from their respective names. Piper Betel and Annona Muricata. Perhaps these two words can inspire me about the name of an actor who has not been born into this world.
(What?... Muricata strongly suggests the name of a specific plant varieties, Cisca! Can't you feel the pronunciation of the name with your tongue? Muricata. Mu-ri-ca-ta. Ah. Meanwhile, Piper ...well, so-so. Piper. Piper. Mmm ... tolerable. A kind of Pierre from France, maybe? ...Haa ! I think this is some sort of a newsagent with all its human resource -- ranging from crew to publisher -- is yourself, Cisca! ahahhaa ...)
