OK. It’s 3:51 am in Canada. My phone won't stop ringing and the emails are flooding in asking for info. The only thing I'm gunna say is that, despite me actually getting bitten, it was both Nick and I that were attacked. It was just as terrifying for him as it was for me. I literally owe my life to Nick. I was in shock after the incident and didn't know what to do. Nick got me out of there and drove me to the hospital! It wasn't a one man mission to stay alive like the media is portraying, it was a friend doing as much as he could in a crazy situation to keep his friend from dying! I probably would have died of hypothermia or blood loss if he hadn't kept me going. My stupid idea was to climb a tree and wait until daylight. 12 hours in -20'c and with some serious bleeding to my lower leg is not the best way to spend the night. I can't thank Nick enough, even though I know I don't have to. Cheers bro! Xx

Actually, I see little sense in bombing. It has very little chance of achieving very much.

Military action would need to be on the ground to achieve anything.

The main problem being the Media's interpretation of that action. Militarily, the Iraq and Afgan campaigns were successful.

The repercussions of those actions, however...

Dailymash and Newsthump aren't really news are they, they're satire.

They certainly get to the heart of the matter and cut the crap, but are really just taking the (deserved) piss out of the media and the majority of the public and don't add much context/content/details/facts/new information.

Today I shall mostly be sarcastic with gloomy ironic intervals; winds freshening from the west later and a chance of rain...

How?

How does the world get so fucked up that this constitutes "Top Stories" of the BBC news site?

Doomed, I tell you!
