Human beings will be happier - not when they cure cancer or get to Mars or eliminate racial prejudice or flush Lake Erie but when they find ways to inhabit primitive communities again. That's my utopia.

We should all Shut Up??
Bush set sights on Saddam after 9/11 and never looked back
. In his march to war,
President Bush inadvertently united the people of the world
as he pushed for and implemented a
war without anyone's permission
. Although
Bush is not bothered by inconsistencies
(or
lies
) many of us are. We are bothered that the
USA lied about Iraq's weapons
. We are bothered that
House Budget Resolution Will Slash $9.7 Billion from Veterans Medical Care and $15 Billion from Disability Compensation and Other Benefit Programs
. As we set our sights on the
World Time
Clock,
Let's be clear about what this war is, and what it is not.
We have a little matter called the
Master Plan (PNAC)
which includes Richard Perle's motivation for the article in which he declared
Thank God for the death of the UN
, and the issue of
Insiders Making Billions in the War on Terrorism
and headlines such as this:
Dollar soars as air bombing of Iraq begins
and,
Halliburton profits from business in Iran
while
three of our precision bombs inadvertantly go astray in Western Iran
. The US actions in the Middle East spur
unexpected 'reforms'
inconsistent with US ambitions for the region
We have moral inconsistencies as well. A recent Gallup poll shows that
church-going Americans are more likely to support war against Saddam Hussein than are Americans as a whole.
while the leadership body of major
Churches deplore war in Iraq .
We have major problems with the
interpretation of our Constitution by Justice Scalia
.
We are moving dangerously close to having a
state controlled media
.
Senator Biden says, "we should all shut up."
