There are plenty of appetisers, which is to be? The crisis in Irak, Iran, Afghanistan, North Korea, Palestine, Burma, Dafur, Kosovo, Chechnya.. nnWe seem to be repeatedly and increasingly afraid that the sky is going to fall on our heads, and the current American president (not to mention his entire administration) is not alone in his quandary as to the why and wherefore. Thus the new world order staggers blithely from one headline to the next: ever at the thick of it with his ?quirky eye? - Horst M'nch. The small screen and to a greater extent the larger ones also are already in the business of distorting our view of every conceivable problem concerning the map. Where they could actually explain something, but.. should they do so in the first place? Isn't Berlin supposed to be here? No, that must be China! I can clearly recognize Russia, but why does Europe begin there? The conversations in front of the images are the same.nnEverything begins here and ends there, which is precisely what connects it. The demarcation of the USA along its own borders seems to be just as provisional as the border of Irak.
