The machines stand patiently
ready to act on human command.
Workers expectantly arise
to resume their duties.
Tools, systems, routes, logistics
lined up for service.
Plants to sow and reap; structures
to build, maintain, repair, replace;
commodities to be united with
their markets; music to be played;
enchanting murals to paint;
shows that must go on; coffee
to be made; errands to run;
endless activities and professions
imposing order on entropy.
Teach the curious,
heal the sick or broken,
enforce the law,
tend to the poor.
Society’s capillaries clogged by
a powerful voodoo. All is
needing to be done, but stopped
dead or cancerously
receding from living
for want of the magic beans,
the mysterious force of money,
a social construct gone mad,
constricting the flow of life.

Harper is now a traitor

The time for talks is over
The time for the Revolution is now
We will fight and destroy the New World Order and it’s tyranny
Freedom shall prevail

God Bless Canada

May I remind you that Jews are not settlers of the Holy Land: they are just as indigenous as Arabs, Druse, Turks, etc., in the Middle East. Despite numerous expulsions, Jews have lived in the ME for thousands of years, so Mr. Verwoerd’s and others’ statements about Jews taking land from the Arabs is incorrect. This is not what can be said about the Europeans who settled North and South America, who massacred the native Indians and stole their lands.

There are many areas worldwide where boundaries are disputed, so why single out Israel? Also, the Palestinians have brought the separation upon themselves — maybe, that separation wall would not be there if they had not sent in suicide bombers targeting Israeli civilians. It is the Arabs’ refusal to live in peace with the Jews that has brought many of the problems the Palestinians are experiencing. Any country has a right to take measures to prevent unprovoked attacks against its security, therefore these tight separation/security measures.

What is not mentioned here is that the Nationalist Government of South Africa obtained its ideas of separating blacks from whites from Canada, in its treatment of the First Nations peoples, who, by the way, still live on reserves set apart for them, under living standards far below that of whites.

My suggestion is that you clean up your own backyard, before pointing your finger at others, Mr. Corrigan — in the words (paraphrased) of Christ Jesus:

* Judge not, lest you yourself be judged.
* If anyone among you has not sinned, cast the first stone.
