The image in the top left corner is Mitt Romney.
Mitt Romney wants to have a war with Iran. What on earth for? He
needs to placate his backers who make billions from selling war
materials. They are feeling restless with the winding down of the Iraq
and Afghan wars. Mitt hopes to partly finance his war with the oil and
uranium spoils from Iran. He knows the American people are war
weary so he announced these plans in doubletalk, hoping the hawks will
notice and the doves will not. He says that under his presidency, America
will follow Israel’s lead without question.

We have so far identified 70 different cries that elephants use to communicate. Alex
the grey parrot leaned to use, not just parrot, 150 words. Washoe the chimpanzee
learned 350 words of ASL (American Sign Language). Uneducated humans use about 500 words. Educated ones make do with about 800. The range of
human contemplation is not that much greater than other animals.

Like all creatures, humans have made their way in the world by trial and error. Unlike other creatures we have a
presence so colossal that error is a luxury we can no longer afford. The world has grown too small to forgive us
any big mistakes.
~ Ronald Wright (born: 1948 age: 63) in a 2004 Masse Lecture |
Evil is unspectacular and always human, and shares our bed and eats at our own table.
~ Wystan Hugh Auden (born: 1907-02-21 died: 1973-09-29 at age: 66)
The Germans could not see Hitler as evil. He was too familiar. Similarly, Americans could not see
Bush-43 or Cheney for the mass-murdering psychopathic torturers they were. People invite soldiers to Thanksgiving
dinner, and mentally block out the unspeakable crimes they know perfectly well they have committed. |
