Dear Reuters, the blood of Iranian children is no bonanza for Tiny Guyana..



Dear Reuters

Your article about how the US-Israeli killing of Iranian children could be a bonanza to Tiny Guyana came out on a day when many yards and streets and houses were flooded after rainfall which should not be unexpected for any country which is developing in  harmony with a turbulent climate and which uses historical experiences, evidence and data to guide interventions.

Your  article comes at a time when the stench of stagnant water  reminds us that this 'growth' seems to be 'decay', the stench arising out of insecure egos of politicians who abuse their  power who push bizarre decisions or not make decisions instead of investing in competent expertise guided by global experience. 

After all, we are not the first country to be cursed with oil and to learn how to deal with the curse of oil.

 Your article about how the US Killing of Iranian children could be a bonanza to Tiny Guyana (or as you framed it "the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran" does talk about how high oil prices means rising cost of living but does not talk the rising stress from the rising cost of living is made worse by the rising displays of incompetence , the callous use of the oil money, the growing inability of the Government agencies to maintain law and order (Farnum Playground in Subryanville as one case).

Or is your "bonanza"  the deliberately undocumented serious rates of suicides and suicide attempts; of gender-based violence; or the "bonanza 'of data about young people dealing with heart disease

Dear Reuters, maybe future articles will tell the story of those of us who are not benefiting from this bonanza you write about, 

and who want to mourn with the families of all the dead killed in the wars to create the "bonanza";

 and who want to seek healing in a traumatized world which thinks that money from blood is 'bonanza' and could mean 'good things for Tiny Guyana'.

Yours sincerely

Man living in Guyana  who has nowhere to go.
