Well, for convenience-sake, just forget the other riots before; Paris, Tunesia, Greece, Egypt, Libya... and the list goes on and on.
Also, just forget about the open letter I wrote on July 30, 2011 to the Government of the 'Friendly island', asking about its 'contingency plan', just in the very 'remote' event such would
'hit home'.
And what the 'heck', also forget all the 'reward' , I got in the form of total ridicule, among others from my good friend Mr. Hilbert HAAR of the TODAY newspaper.
He implied that I was in fact spreading 'unjustified terror' on the 'Friendly Island' - wattating. (See attachment)
Well, brother 'Hilby' guess what?
Who would have thought such an event could take place on mainland of Great-Britain itself and so quickly after 'Norway' ?
Well guess again.
That too is ongoing 'history'.
So, the question remains to those on the island, at whose 'door-steps', the buck is supposed to stop, whether they and/or Hilbert HAAR like it or not.
And please Mr. HAAR, do again 'jump to their rescue', while taking the easy way out - attacking the 'messenger'.
'Honorable' Prime-minister of Country St. Maarten, Mrs. Sarah WESCOT WILLIAMS, please tell the people what is your government's contingency plan for such 'man-made' disasters, before as customary 'rushing off' a letter of sympathy across the globe, this time to H.M. Queen Elisabeth, while there is smoke 'bellowing' from your own home.
Talk to us, put our fears to rest.
Is that asking too much from a Prime-minister ?
If so, is it up to those in the streets to then devise their own 'contingency plan' ?
Looking forward to your response.
