They Fight for Our Freedom

Oh yeah? What freedom is that again?

If you can sit and watch this and not get upset, then you are dead inside. Because the U.S. Constitution CLEARLY establishes that every citizen has the right to freedom of assembly, without any permitting process thank you (as in Congress shall make no law). This was a peaceful protest and the Pennsylvania Criminal Code was cited to call it unlawful.

Sue! Everyone that was there needs to sue the fucking city of Pittsburgh! I want to see the exact provision cited. What jurisdiction can supersede your Constitutional right with some breach or a permit? None!! Don't let them fool you Amerika! Where is the ACLU on this?

Eight Years of Song and Dance

Well Deek won't have the full version of "911 the Musical" out until Christmas, but he's released this tasty nugget on the national remembrance. No matter how you feel about whether the destruction of the World Trade Center was a deliberate act perpetrated by our own government, the most important thing to consider is this: a single terrorist act would not have divide and conquer as its motive.

War is Dead and So Are We

I was thinking, looking at all video games and the news, that we don't really FIGHT wars any more. A fight is fair. The other guy gets to knock us around, too. No, these days we don't even engage them the do like in the movies.

We exterminate. Decimate. We totally eradicate the enemy and his houses and villages and cites and towns right where he lives – like rats. Might as well have big giant kooshy-hammers that bang down on moles' heads popping up out of sandy caves.

Oh wait, that's pretty much the strategy in Afghanistan already.

So really, it follows then, there is no such thing as WAR any more. Sure, we tell the boys who want to dress up and kill that we FIGHT. But really, it's more like we force our way. We tell the boys….we fight for things. For what's right. Land for one, even if there are people on it already. Decimate. Destroy.

Ideas, for another. Empty things – just words and stories really, but always leading to bleeding to death on purpose in filthy homeless streets. Where is the fight here? When did they hit you? Cold little girls afraid in the dark crushed to death by bedroom bricks blown open from 4 AM bombing missions. Can't help hit a few good horses getting the rats. If terror is anything, it's something much more powerful than you striking you dead while you were sleeping safe and sound.

Everyone else is a terrorist though.

You know back in WWII, the Japanese pilots crashed their planes not into towers of financial wealth, but battleships of war. These were the first suicide bombers. They killed lots of soldiers, even though we eventually fried to a crisp each and every one of their grandmas in a several mile radius of kids and playgrounds. And now the funny thing is they own the greatest part of our national debt. I the taxpayer owe these people and I didn't even do it. We literally locked them up by the family in cages and camps, crimes or not, and now they will have us in the poor house slaving away for them forever for generations to come. So, better fight those terrorists out there.

This means WAR.

Against no country.

Against no people.

No one place.

Just an idea. Fundamentalism, played to the end.

And this is not Hiroshima?

These are not poisoned blankets offered by firemen?

The killing of the Buffalo?

Could it be True?

Hmmmm.
This reminds me of a cartoon I know...

Thisrael right here (not that one)

Welcome to the end of the world people. Bush just told Israel (after coming back from there a week ago), "don't go bomb Iran." Excuse me, but aren't these the People who brought us the Ten Commandments -- all negative, prohibitive phrases which are just psychological tricks getting us to do the very thing they say not to?

THOU SHALT NOT KILL.

Well, I think the illegal state wars, genocides, and ethnic cleansing (now CLASS cleansing in Africa and Latin America for voters and union activists) point to that one pretty much failing. In fact, every one of the "Commandments" Israel said Moses brought down is automatically set up for intentional failure. The rules should have been set in a more positive statement -- like -- "Have a peanut butter jelly sandwich." We all would be better off today.

The great trick began in so-called Eden, when an omnipotent being said "don't touch that tree." Classic stupid humans! Of course they would. Or at least her. In any case, it's all in the Book about the Tribes of Israel, or Bible as we call it today. So when irony reaches this level of outward global presentation, I just know we're in for a ride of biblical proportions.

Here we are again with the absolute setup. Might as well be a bearded loony on a mountain: Bush comes home from birthday parties in Israel and knows full well he can't invade/attack Iran -- Iraq paved the way but it's just still not kosher enough for us to do it. So Israel will drop the bombs and start it, and we will have to join in.

After all Israel is our (best armed) friend in that region. Genius. All in the plan. Sleep tight Amerika!
