Do you own your pets, or do they own you?

People around here have been telling me all my life that dog's and cat's have no emotions, and that they weren't good for anything other than protection, herding cattle or sheep, or in the case of cat's, being mouser's.  These people just don't get it.  They don't understand what having dog or cat is all about.

Yes those aspects of dog's and cat's are good, but these people obviously haven't ever had a meaningful relationship with someone of the four-legged variety.  

Let's take Silverfish's dog Lucifer for instance.  He's a Doberman whom Silver "adopted" in July of 2007, he was 7 months old at the time.  Silver never adopted him, Lucifer adopted Silver!  He has since adopted me as well.  Quite frankly I think the mutts name should be Loki, not Lucifer.  Like, if he's to be named for a god, it may as well be for the god of mischief.

Let me explain.  Last summer, Lucifer found out that he can trip people in sandals, specifically those known as "flip-flops" or "thongs".  He'll sneak up behind someone, and just as they're taking a step, he'll step down on the sandal, making it impossible to walk.  Trust me, I know this from vast experience!  

Another thing this boy's learned is how to start a water fight.  Unfortunately, he always starts them indoors!  He takes great pleasure in watching me pour myself a glass of water.  Once I put the water jug back in the fridge and start to walk away, he'll come up behind me and smash his forehead into my cup splashing water all over me.  And then he laughs!  Oh yes, Lucifer has a great laugh!  I swear this dog came from the Jim Carey movie, "The Mask".  Remember that part where Jim's dog puts on the mask and bites that criminal in the ass?  That would be the same expression and laugh that Lucifer has everytime he plays a prank on someone.

God forbid you should put a glass of milk or a flavored coffee down on the coffee table and take your eyes off of it for more than half a second!  Yep, that 140 lb little bugger will drink it right from under your nose, and then when you get mad at him for it, he laughs! 

He takes his chewed up wrecked toys and put them on your head.  (That's Silver's fault.  We buy tobacco and roll our own cigarette's, Silv started this thing with putting the tobacco lid on Lucifer's head and calling it a "Silly Hat".)  So now he does this with his toys and then laughs about it.

Not only does this boy play practical jokes on his "owners", but he's a terrible flirt and perverted to boot.  I have a neighbor girl who has some rather good looking female friends.  As I get along with all of them, they come over to visit occassionally.  Well, the better looking of the girls get a huge kick out of it.  When these girls come over, Lucifer will give them a little love nip on their butts.  He gooses them!  Where do you think he learned that trick?  Then, when they've managed to get into the house and sit on the couch, Lucifer sits there beside them, and tries to stick his nose down the girls shirt.  He then proceeds to nip her tit giving her a hickie!  The girls laugh their heads off when he does this.  He gives them such love-struck-puppy eyes it's disgusting!  

Ok, so I've gotten really far off the topic of the day here.  I had started this off by asking if you own your pet or if he/she owns you.  Well, dammit, it's obvious, isn't it?  Your pet (for lack of a better generic term) owns you, plain and simple.  After all, he/she says it's time to go for a walk, or it's time for a pee break, or it's time for food, it's always something, right!?!  Well, who take them for walks?  Who let's them out for pee?  Who brings whom the food?  Who cleans the litter box?  Not the pet, it's the so called owner!

Do you think these critter's are going to let their owners know that they are truly the master's in this master/slave relationship?  NO they won't!  Why won't they?  Let me ask you this, if you were in a relationship with another person and that person thinks he/she owns you, but it's really the other way around, would you tell him/her and open his/her eyes to reality, or would you just let the gravy train keep rolling along smoothly?  I know what I'd do, I'll leave the train roll and let the fool keep his delusions.  And that's the same opinion that our furry little friends have.

So tell me, who is it that truly has the inferior mind?  The human who is deluded into thinking he's the master, or the pet who knows exactly how much can be gotten away with?  Humans think they have the superior mind, after all, a human can reason things out.  Well, excuse me people, how can Lucifer have such a sense of humor or such a perverted attitude when the mood strikes him if he has no capabilities of reason?

Lucifer is only one example.  I've known a dog who knew she was seeing herself in a mirror.  If her owner gave her a haircut, she'd hang her head in shame as she walked past a mirror.   BUT if she went to a proper groomer to get her hair cut she'd prance and strut in front of the mirror.  That takes reasoning!

A cat I used to have always knew exactly where I had pain and would curl herself up against that spot and start to purr.  Her warmth and the vibrations of her purrs always helped ease the pain of the affected area.  That takes reasoning!

I'll let Silv tell you about his friend Pauly, but that bird had a hell of a sense of humor as well, and that takes reasoning!

You have to be able to reason to be able to understand things.  It's not just instinct.

The only critters on this planet that are evil or malicious for the sake of it, are humans.  Now explain to me how that's reasonable.  Please explain to me how humans are the "better" species, I just can't see it!

I wonder if I have enough to read?

Ok, so I've printed up Hitler Born at Versailles (324 pgs), Catholic Orangemen of Togo (218pgs), Mind Control in the 21st Century (103pgs), and also Inside Laurel Canyon (88pgs).   That's 733 pages of information for my overlogged brain to absorb.  Not to mention all the reading I do here.  Now if I don't get some real understanding about the world, I'll have to say that there is something seriously wrong with me!  

With all that printing, only 40 pages of f#$%-up's that needed to be reprinted.  If you're wondering why I admitted to that, it's 'cause Silv will call me on it if I don't first...lol.  Besides, if one can't laugh at oneself, who then can one laugh at?  Oh yeah, there were also about 6 pages or so that I had punched the holes on the wrong side in the Laurel Canyon book.  Oh well, pobody's nerfect! *big cheesy grin*

Now it's  off to do some reading!

How well do you know the map of the Middle East?

A friend sent me this link via e-mail.  I went to it, and found that even though I'm reading a lot about these countries, I didn't really know where it was that they were in location to each other.  So, I'm challenging you to go to Rethinking Schools and take the test.  Yep, I've taken it over and over again.  You don't get a score, you aren't timed, all info is strictly for yourself.  I just find it a good way to learn a little more geography.  I hope it helps you to learn a little more as well! :)

Opposition of Occupation and other ramblings

Why is it, that when one country invades and occupies another, the victims, i.e. the people who live in the occupied country, are called terrorists when they oppose the occupation? 

For myself, I'd appreciate being able to oppose an occupying force without being given such a horrible label. Quite frankly, the way I see it is that the groups doing the invading are indeed the terrorists. That would make Canada, the U.S., Britain, Oz and all the other countries currently in the Middle East enforcing war in fact terrorists. It's a label that suits them well, and one I hate being part of, as I'm a Canuck.

I don't know if you ever watched Star Trek, The Next Generation, but the evil Borg depict these occupying countries quite nicely. These countries that are trying to take control of the oil and everything else out there, have the "Borg" mentality. What I mean is that the Borg, when occupying a spaceship or world, would say, "Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated." The people in Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Pakistan will eventually be assimilated into the occupying countries, after all, their homeland is being occupied by people right alongside them.

Let's take Canada for instance. In order for people of other races to get along here in Canada, they have to learn the language. This poses a problem for a lot of people, as Canada is a bilingual country, speaking both English and French. Now most newcomers can get along if they learn English, but what happens if they learn enough English to get by, and then are left to live in the province of Quebec? Quebec is predominantly French, these immigrants would be screwed, because now they'd have to learn yet another language. If they don't learn the language, they won't be able to get much in the way of jobs unless they miraculously are able to find a place to live that is predominantly of their nationality. It's easy for the Chinese, Italians, and East Indian's as most major cities here in Canada have such communities as China Town, Little Italy, or Little India, but not so for those from the Middle East.

I feel for these people who have no place to go, but really folks, should they be forced to go anywhere in the first place? This is their land they're being kicked out of and made refugees from. We are the invaders, we are the terrorists, and we are the ones guilty of war crimes. Perhaps not directly, but by god we are by proxy! Our countries are doing this to them, or at the very least are allowing such atrocities to happen. None of our countries citizens are telling our governments to get out of the Middle East and mean it. If we were, our governments would have to listen and would therefore get out of there, or face the consequences. What are the consequences? Well that's easy, it would mean that they wouldn't be re-voted into office, it could mean a vote of no confidence forcing an election in a non-election year. Trouble is, would the new government voted in be any better? Answer to that, probably not. The Puppet Master’s would ensure that new puppets were groomed and ready to be put in place.

Sure, a new government may get the people out of the war they're involved in, but it sure as hell won't help to put a stop to what the Israelites are doing in Pakistan. We’d still be supporting Israel, because we are its minions. Jews are the Puppet Master’s. Jews own and control the banks, the banks own and control the government. Without the banks, there’s no flow of money, how can the government pay for things (or get paid) without money? They can’t. So they follow the money, and that comes straight from the banks. Oh yes, we the people pay our taxes and believe that’s what pays for the government to exist. But, does it really? When we get our paychecks where does the money go? Into the bank. Where do the taxes go that get taken off our checks? Into the bank. Who moves that money into the government coffers? The bank. Who owns the bank? The Jews. Therefore, for whom do we really work? The Jews! Make no mistake, the bank, ergo the Jews, get their cut for every transaction made. The Jews get our money to support their terrorization any and every conceivable way that they can, regardless of what you want. There is no getting around it, short of disappearing off the grid.  

I believe Nobody knows what that’s all about!

The only other option is revolt. Start another Civil War. That’ll put paid to some problems, start other problems, and in the end, the Jews will still own the banks. So saying, it’s no solution at all. 

We are sheeple, no matter what we do, no matter how we may try to fight back, eventually we will once again be led by our noses to the slaughter house.

So why is it that we call those who are defending themselves and their homes terrorists? Well in my opinion, it’s because we’re just too damned blind to see what’s right in front of our faces. And that is the plain and simple fact that we are only following orders. Orders given to us by our governments, which are in turn given to them by the Puppet Master’s. Oh, we may not see it as orders, we’re just following what the media portrays, but the media portrays that which it’s allowed to portray, rarely portraying the truth.

What a bloody copout!

Whatever happened to '60's music?

Back in the 60's when the U.S. was fighting in Vietnam, musicians sang against the occupation and the war.  People protested while listening to these singers, the power of the people ended that war.

Where are these singers who empowered the people so?  Where are the people who listened to the artists and fought the government?  Did what they did then make any real difference to the future?  Is there something we can learn from that time and implement it now, and stop what's happening now?  I believe there is, all we need is people with guts to get started on it.  Could a true anti-war movement be struck again?

Everyone's heard of Simon and Garfunkel, and most people know the song "Are You Going To Scarborough Fair?", but, have you ever paid attention to the underlying lyrics?  I've always heard and understood the predominant words, but if you listen closely, there is a completely different song playing in the background.  It blends in so beautifully that most people don't pick up on it.  Hell, all I've ever heard of it was the odd word here and there, so I finally googled the song and dug up the lyrics.  Here they are, pay attention to the words in brackets.   They're the lyrics I'm talking about here:

Are you going to Scarborough Fair? 
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme 
Remember me to one who lives there 
She once was a true love of mine 

Tell her to make me a cambric shirt 
  (On the side of a hill in the deep forest green) 
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme 
  (Tracing a sparrow on snow-crested ground)
Without no seams nor needlework 
  (Blankets and bedclothes the child of the mountain) 
Then she'll be a true love of mine 
  (Sleeps unaware of the clarion call) 

Tell her to find me an acre of land
  (On the side of a hill, a sprinkling of leaves)
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme
  (Washes the ground with so many tears)
Between the salt water and the sea strand
  (A soldier cleans and polishes a gun)
Then she'll be a true love of mine

Tell her to reap it in a sickle of leather
  (War bellows, blazing in scarlet battalions)
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme
  (Generals order their soldiers to kill)
And to gather it all in a bunch of heather
  (And to fight for a cause they've long ago forgotten)
Then she'll be a true love of mine 

Are you going to Scarborough Fair? 
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme 
Remember me to one who lives there 
She once was a true love of mine

There were so many powerful songs written and perfomed during that era.  I really wish I hadn't missed it!  One artist that comes to mind from this era is John Mayer.  On his album Continuum, is a great piece called "Waiting On The World To Change".

I've linked the lyrics to the title.  If you can come up with some more powerful anti-war songs for me to listen to or lyrics to read, I'd appreciate the links, so thanks in advance.

I'm sure you all know that bugger from "A View From The Swallow's Nest", right?  Well I have to say thank you to that ass for confusing the hell out of me last night.  Damn I was mad at him, here I knew that the Olympics coming to Vancouver in 2010 was the Winter Olympics, I knew it dammit!  He told me I was wrong!  Can you believe that?  He told me I was wrong!

Now you have to understand, I will never be as smart as he is, and so, by and large and for the most part, when he say's I'm wrong about something, I tend to believe him.  NOT anymore!  NOT after last night.  He almost, almost but not quite, perhaps 90% had me believing that I was indeed wrong in remembering that it's the Winter Olympics.  He had this cock-and-bull story down to a "T" saying that it's the Summer Olympics in Vancouver in 2012 and the Winter Olympics are in 2010 in Calgary.  Yes I can be dumb, yes perhaps I should have been a blonde.  Yes I was born blonde, but my hair naturally got darker as I got older.  No I don't die my hair to say I'm not blonde, hell I'm proud of the fact that it is now salt-'n'-pepper in color!  YES I am gullible when it comes to listening to that "Swallow's Nest" nutcake, and he took advantage of that last night...lol.

Now you're asking "Ok, he made a fool of you last night, so why do you need to say "thank you"?"

Well, I'll tell you why.  It's because I had to play chauffeur to my Grandmother today.  Had I known why she needed me to drive her around, I would have said NO.  She had bought herself a new cordless phone in December because her old one wouldn't take a charge anymore.  I hadn't seen this new phone yet, so when we were driving to the store to see about replacing it and getting a call display phone, I thought nothing of it.  Little did I know that the phone she wanted replaced is identical in every aspect, right down to the call display feature, of her last phone.  Had I known this, I would have just taken her old phone and shown her exactly what was the same, which is EVERYTHING.  But no, I didn't know this, so I took her to the store and found out while talking to the sales clerk.  Thankfully the man is pretty cool, and he took it all in stride.   

He showed Grandma how to use the phone, plus he showed her that her little book telling her how to use the phone is not only written in French, but if you flip it over, it's English on the other end.  She had been flipping through the French side not bothering to look through the whole thing!  Man, I was getting embarrassed for her, but hey, what can ya do, right!?!

Anyway, when everything was done over at the store, Grandma had me drive her home, hook up the phone, and explain everything to her again.  So I took out the old phone from where she hid it in the cupboard, took the new phone, and showed her that everything was the same.  I showed her how to collect her missed calls list, which is something she had me explain, must have been around 100 times.  She tried to gt her missed calls list, couldn't get it, she tried again, with me showing her, didn't get it.  I had her do it on the old phone, no problem, got it first try, so I told her do the same with this phone.  Didn't get it.  I knew what she needed to do, I had shown her how to do it, she could do it no problem on the old phone, I was beginning to think I was wrong and that something was different with the new phone.  I was starting to get confused.  So I tried it again on both the old phone and the new, same buttons to press, nothing different.  I was more confused.  Why couldn't Grandma get this?  Finally she figured out that the phones were the same, oh thank god, sweet jesus, and mother mary, it was about time!  That was sorted out.  I thought I was home free in teaching her how to use a phone identical to the one she had been using for the last 5 years with never a problem.  Boy was I wrong!

She decided some test calls were in order, ok, fine by me.  She calls her cousin, this is a phone number she knows off by heart, so she dials the last 4 digits of the phone number, and is totally confused as to why she can't hear the phone ring.  She handed me the phone so I could see what she had done, and so I explained to her that she needs to dial the first 3 digits, that phone number's are 7 digits long.  She say's "I know that!  Don't patronize me, it's been that way for 20 years already!"  So I show her that she had only dialed the last 4 numbers, ok, she realised her mistake, and redialed.  It was the wrong number.  The guy who answered the phone just laughed and explained that the number she quoted him had 2 numbers just opposite of what she had dialed.  No problem.  She started to dial again.  Didn't work.  She had forgotten to press off after the last call.  Then, with everything sorted out, call made, phone now understood, she asked me another question about the phone.

"Skye," she say's, "can you explain to me why whenever I make a call, or answer the phone, when I'm done talking the phone starts to beep after a few minutes, and it says 'your call can not be completed as dialed, please hang up and try your call again'?".  Oh my god, I tried so hard not to laugh and cry at the same time.  I think I managed to succeed in that, at least she didn't let on that by this time I found her to be truly nuts.  So I said "Yep Grandma, that would be because you need to hang up the phone when you're done talking!"

You see, I just have to say thank you, because he had me practise getting confused without getting too frustrated and angry. By doing that, he had pointed out to me that it doesn't matter how right a person can be, anyone can get confused under the right circumstances. I managed to keep that in mind dealing with Grandma this morning, and I didn't get frustrated with her, nor did I get angry, which are two things I tend to do far too easily.

So, thank you, ya bloody ass, I do so love you!

Confessions

I just thought I'd let it be known that the reason I have started to blog here is due to The Silverfish.  Ever since he started to blog here, he's been reading me comments posted to him as well as posts written at various people's blogs.  He's read to me from a number of bloggers postings and it has invariably led me to want to read them and post for myself.  So many people here have such incredible things to say and share, I just want to say thank you for letting me be a part of it! 

I am not naive enough to believe that what I have to say will make any real difference in the corruption of the world's views, but it certainly does feel good to be able to get it off my chest.

So yes Fish, I am in a sense stalking you!  As you know, I'm a visual learner and therefore understand the things you've read to me better by reading them myself.

UN headquarters in Gaza hit by Israeli 'white phosphorus' shells

Cruising through the Rense Program, Ifound this article. I had no choice but to copy and paste it here, I was so disgusted with what it says.  See for yourself what it is that I mean!:                     

The main UN compound in Gaza was left in flames today after being struck by Israeli artillery fire, and a spokesman said that the building had been hit by shells containing the incendiary agent white phosphorus.

The attack on the headquarters of the UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) came as Ban Ki Moon, the UN Secretary-General, arrived in Israel on a peace mission and plunged Israel's relations with the world body to a new low.
 
Mr Ban expressed his "strong protest and outrage" at the shelling and demanded an investigation, only to be told by apologetic Israeli leaders that their forces had been returning fire from within the UN compound.
 
"The Israeli forces were attacked from there and their response was severe," Ehud Olmert, the Prime Minister, told the UN chief, according to a statement released by his office.
 
"We do not want such incidents to take place and I am sorry for it but I don’t know if you know, but Hamas fired from the UNRWA site. This is a sad incident and I apologise for it."
 
UNWRA, which looks after around four million Palestinian refugees in the region, suspended its operations in Gaza after the attack, in which three of its employees were injured.
 
Chris Gunness, a UNRWA spokesman, said that the building had been used to shelter hundreds of people fleeing Israel’s 20-day offensive in Gaza. He said that pallets with supplies desperately needed by Palestinians in Gaza were on fire.
 
"What more stark symbolism do you need?" he said. "You can’t put out white phosphorus with traditional methods such as fire extinguishers. You need sand, we don’t have sand."
 
The Israeli military has denied using white phosphorus shells in the Gaza offensive, although an investigation by The Times has revealed that dozens of Palestinians in Gaza have sustained serious injuries from the substance, which burns at extremely high temperatures.
 
The Geneva Convention of 1980 proscribes the use of white phosphorus as a weapon of war in civilian areas, although it can be used to create a smokescreen. The Israel Defence Forces (IDF) said today that all weapons used in Gaza were "within the scope of international law".
 
The attack on the UN compound came as Israeli forces pushed deeper into Gaza City and unleashed their heaviest shelling on its crowded neighbourhoods in three weeks of war. At least 15 Palestinians were killed in the Israeli attacks, medical officials said, pushing the death toll up towards 1,100 — a level that Mr Ban described as "unbearable".

 

It was not clear whether the escalation signalled a new phase in the conflict. Israel has held back from all-out urban warfare in the narrow alleyways of Gaza's cities, where Hamas militants are more familiar with the lay of the land.

Black smoke billowed over Gaza City, terrifying civilians who said that they had "nowhere left to hide" from the relentless shelling.
 
"I am telling you that Gaza is on fire, everything is under attack. We cannot begin to answer all the calls for help, it is desperate. We cannot reach the people, everyone is trapped and we do not know how to help them," said Doctor Moussa El Haddad at Shifa Hospital.
 
Maha El-Sheiky, 36, said that she fled her home in the western suburbs of Gaza City two days ago, moving her family into a school in the centre of the city. "We thought it would be safer here. But now there is shelling everywhere. It is schools and mosques and hospitals. We don’t know what will be next," she said. "We are hiding, it is in God’s hands."
 

There were reports that the al-Quds hospital in the Tal El Hawa district, Gaza's second-largest, had been shelled, while more than 500 patients were being treated inside.
 
An explosion also blasted a tower block that houses the offices of Reuters and several other media organisations, injuring a journalist working for the Abu Dhabi television channel.
 
Reuters journalists working at the time said it appeared that the southern side of the 13th floor of the Al-Shurouq Tower in the city centre had been struck by an Israeli missile or shell. Reuters evacuated its bureau.
 
Several organisations, including the International Committee of the Red Cross and Human Rights Watch, said that they were "certain" that Israel was using white phosphorus shells in Gaza. Human rights workers said that the use of phosphorus in the densely populated Gaza City could constitute a war crime.
  
Israel launched the offensive on December 27 in an effort to stop militant rocket fire from Gaza that has terrorised hundreds of thousands of Israelis. It says that it will press ahead until it receives guarantees of a complete halt to rocket fire and an end to weapons smuggling into Gaza from neighbouring Egypt.
 
The attack on the UN compound prompted international protests.
 
Lord Malloch-Brown, the Foreign Office Minister, said that there was "absolutely no excuse" for the shelling, which, he said, reminded him of a similar attack on a UN observation post during the Israeli offensive into Lebanon in 2006.
 
He told peers: "With over 1,000 people now dead in Gaza, many of them civilians and children, the urgent need for a diplomatic solution is clear. A robust and immediate ceasefire is the only way the current situation in Gaza can be addressed."
 
William Hague, the Shadow Foreign Secretary, said: "The shelling of the UN Headquarters in Gaza is unacceptable. This undercuts efforts to bring relief to the people of Gaza and is against Israel’s own interests. The UNWRA provides food and aid to over a million Palestinian refugees in Gaza.
 
"The suspension of its operations will bring more misery to civilians. We desperately need a ceasefire by both sides, not further escalation. Both sides must meet their obligations to protect aid workers at all times."
 
The conflict was also discussed at talks between Gordon Brown and Angela Merkel, the German Chancellor, in Berlin. Aides said that Mr Brown was expected to speak to Mr Ban later today.
 

Pictures say a 1000 words

You know, I mentioned in my introduction post that I'm appalled at the way the governments of the world are behaving today.  IraHell is supposedly part of the United Nations, but only if the UN is saying and doing what IsraHell agrees with.  As soon as the UN says "Hey boys and girls, listen up, you're getting out of hand" what does IsraHell do?  It says "Screw you, we're above you and don't have to listen to what you say.  This is our world and we're going to run it any way that we want to and there's nothing you can do about it!".

These pictures I have here are just a very small few of those I've found so far on the net of the Horrors and Atrocities happening in Gaza right now at the hands of the IsraHellites.  Canada supports this behaviour, the US supports what the IsraHellites are doing, do you?  I sure as hell don't!  IsraHell says that Gaza doesn't need any humanitarian aide, IsraHell has stopped aide from getting into Gaza, IsraHell has put Palestine under siege.

IsraHell is wrong.

IsraHell needs to be stopped.

Palestine needs all the help it can get.

I had found a french site which I had saved to bookmarks and also had copied the words from the page and pasted them in a word document.  I've since copied the words and pasted them here.  I don't know who wrote it, but I used Google to translate it.  The pictures that had accompanied this little note are something else.  I've since been able to find some of the pictures, but no where near all.  I truly wish I had copied and saved each and every one of those pictures as the page has now disappeared from the internet.  The site is still there, but all links I keep getting to find the page of pictures comes up with a 404 URL not found.

APRES LE MASSACRE DE CANA EN 2006 , LE MASSACRE COURAGEUX A DISTANCE DES ENFANTS DE GAZA DECEMBRE 2008/JANVIER 2009

Ces jeunes israéliens regardent avec curiosité et humour les bombardements de l'armée israélienne . On regarde à la jumelle , on rit , on s'appelle pour décrire le moment , mais ce n'est pas pour décrire les festivités du jour de l'an ... C'est pour profiter du moment d'extermination de la population palestinienne !

Translation:  

After the massacre of Qana in 2006, THE MASSACRE OF REMOTE BRAVE CHILDREN 2008/JANVIER GAZA DECEMBER 2009 

These young Israelis look with curiosity and humor bombing of the Israeli army. We look at the matches, you laugh, it is to describe the moment, but this is not to describe the celebration of New Year's Day ... It is time to take advantage of the extermination of the Palestinian people!

http://portail.islamboutique.fr/gaza2008/

Unfortunately I haven't yet been able to find the picture mentioned in the above quote again.  The young men in the pic's weren't just looking on with curiosity and humor, they appeared to be outright laughing.  I can't imagine being able to laugh at such undeserved and unprovoked destruction.

A little about me

There's not really all that much to tell about me.  My life's not very interesting, I'm quiet and as a rule a loner.  I'm not that good at keeping up with a blog and disappear frequently, only to return when the mood strikes, or more appropriately, when I'm once again inspired.  

I'm not that politically inclined, but at the same time am appalled by the direction governments of this world are taking.  I will do what I can to keep this blog up to date and hopefully of some interest to people.  

My basic rule of thumb is, that if you don't like what I have to say, no one is forcing you to read it, so please keep your insults to yourself and quietly leave.  If you do like what I've said, please feel free to say so, by the same token, if you disagree with what I've said, I do take critisism quite well and I appreciate constructive discussions.

I've also been told to quit selling myself short, but hey, I am who I am and that's all that I am!

Well, that's all for now
