To read the headlines today one has to ask where did the adults go? I feel like I'm in that episode of Star Trek entitled Miri where Captain Kirk lands on a planet that is plagued by a virus which kills off all adults, leaving only children to run the society.
Kirk learns the virus was a failed attempt at prolonging life, allowing humans to age one month with every 365 days. However, once puberty is finally reached, the virus strikes, causing horrible blue sores to form prior to death.
Though many of the "children" Kirk finds are over 300 years old, their emotional and mental maturity is that of their physical maturity. The younger children are docile and compliant, believing everything the older children tell them, including that all adults "grups" are bad.
Each child, as they reach puberty, become violent, enraged and totally irrational meeting with a swift but agonizing demise. From what I see, many of the world's leaders have reached that pre-pubescent stage and boy, we're talking more than mood swings going on!
Currently the world's upper graders are telling the world's lower school what to think. They tell us they are smart but it becomes clearer and clearer that our leading tweens are in over their heads.
The Wikileaks debacle underscores this though really didn't reveal any surprises. Like all jealous adolescents with bad skin, Julian Assange thinks taking pot shots at the popular crowd will finally make him cool.
In reality, Assange's big news didn't match the hype, painting other student council presidents in less competent light than our own trainer-bra-wearing leaders but no doubt, this will make it much more difficult for America to be voted Homecoming Queen anytime soon.
Though the Wikileaks news has more entertainment value hence more headlines, the real outbreak of the Miri virus is most evident in the recent release of "Risky Business II" ie; IRELAND GONE WILD. Like a bunch of spoiled brats who were being told their Kardashian credit cards would be cut up in 2009 if they voted NO on the Lisbon Treaty, the entitlement teens of Erin sold their identity.
This act sealed their economic, political, and personal enslavement to the European Union. The Treaty was meant to insure. The truth is, FOR SURE, the Treaty is no CURE it's just more of the disease.
If only Captain Kirk had paid a visit to Ireland before they voted and explained to them the truth. Ah, but apparently he did, in the form of Nigel Farage... (WARNING, a bit lengthy but this discourse a year ago reveals who is peddling the lie and who sees through it.)

But Mr. Farage's mistake was being British and in Irish that's the equivalent to being a "grup". No matter what, "grups" can not be trusted. And so Ireland went the way of a texting teen in a speeding car, oblivious to what is really at stake, their life, other's lives, just focused on pushing SEND.
The blue spots are starting to form on pubescent political leaders the world over. Ironically, the very upper graders who are pushing the lethal policies will be the first to fall victim to the virus. Like all adolescents, they honestly believe they are invincible. And where does that leave the younger ones? Are we at the older kids' mercy or will Captain Kirk give us the cure? It seems he's trying to but will we listen? (Not to worry, this clip is SHORTER but important)

A little side note, in the Star Trek episode, the cure for the "youth virus" was successful but not without experiencing a bit of pain in the process.
I am not a One World advocate but I do suggest the people of the world take a collective TIME OUT. We need to unplug our iPods, put down the cell phones, log off Facebook for a minute and THINK for ourselves. Not all "grups" are bad. Just the "grups" who don't ACT like "grups". Learn the difference and then grow up.
