Very sad reality,two new powerful countries are discussing the fate of a place which is the cradle of civilisation.
Is this is the emergence of new form of colonial battle or a political Olympic?

I would say neither, it is 2 world powers that are trying to get the middle east out of a rut that they have been in for 5000 years and help them catch up without killing each other and learn how to let go of the past.

Countries don't and shouldn't let go of the past,especially if it was as beautiful as The Syrian one,but they could have learned from it.
On a different note, History has shown that imposing external values doesn't work,they should evolve organically and harvested locally ,so please spare me this mentor ideology,this is only reflect arrogance and lack of understanding of culture.

Daily Horoscope for May 22

Aries

Keep a firm grip on your money today to avoid anyone else getting their mitts on it. If you're out in public you should keep your wallet or bag clamped to your side, just in case it goes walkabout. You should also make sure you check any bills and invoices that you're given, in case they contain a mistake. It's a day when errors and deceptions are highly likely.
