The world has seen enough war

time to start working on the underlying causes?
time to start respecting the mother soil beneath us?
just a thought. or two.

It takes two to war... it takes one to peace
whoever wins the war takes the spoils
whoever maintains peace spoils the war

true enough. oh I dunno. it was late and I was tired and life is kicking my ass right now. not sure why I posted this. physical existence is inherently violent, yes, but to me, "war" is more a species' willful unconscious mass-suicide, a general raping and pillaging-- of each other, of the planet, of a general evolution of conscious wisdom. yes, "peace starts at home," though. true. anyway..

And another thing. I don't care how much shit Michael Moore took for "Fahrenheit 911" from rightwing bobbleheads, he asked an awful lot of damned good questions about the legitimacy of what I've come to call the "Bush Crime Family"-- their connection to the Carlyle Group, the bin Ladens and the Saudis (17 of 19 9/11 attackers were Saudi). Saudi Arabia has been a sponsor of international terror and has an atrocious record on human rights, maybe the worst in the Middle East, yet the Bush Crime family throws all their Big Oil and Big "Defense" buddies a bone and invades Iraq. And now they're just going to ride off into the sunset, throwing political buzzword bombs here and there (Cheney, Rove) and laughing all the way to the effin' bank, and nobody seems to give a shit. What a disgrace. Is that the future of our nation, our species? To fight wars we don't bother to justify or understand and then worship our participation because these fucking dynasty rats give speeches saying it's "honorable?" Shit. Whatevs.

Nazz, go see Capitalism a love story. It will blow your mind. Corporatism and an imperial machine, that demands all parties in government to do it's bidding. They call the masses peasants in their secret little memos. No surprise, but when you actually see the documents, it hurts. And the greed. It really baffles me, this greed, this mine more more mine headset. What causes that? I really don't get it........
And yeah, let's go pontificate together in the near future!!!!!
