Well, what a friggin' crock of crap tirade by the good professor Harari of the Weismann Institute of Science, whatever that is...

It is filled will screwy thinking.

Fir instance, he says more people die of AIDS in Africa every day than died on 9/11, 'er whatever he was trying to say. This makes this ol' hillbilly really mad to hear this crap.

(But, Bobert, them Aficans f**k like rabbits. The'll f**k anything that moves. They're just a bunch of bone through the nose savages...)

Well, there's one of the largest lies being told. Make Bush's lies seem like little white lies. Actually, in spite of professor Harari's not-so-extensive research is that not only do most Africans **not** "f**k like rabbits, but that they test positive for AIDS because they are grossly malnourished from the abject poverty, lack of food, clean water and health care... Like does the good professor klnow that medically a malnourished individual can test positive for AIDS? Heck no, he doesn't, because he isn't too informed or enlightened...

Now he says that the Unitede States gets the War on Terrorism? Yeah, right, Doc, and this way to the table to sign up to buy a bridge of yer choice. I mean, the United States does not have a clue. Where I agree with Harari that the so called terrorists should be treated as criminals, I don't see the logic with his support for pre-emptiveness unless yer danged sure that you are in emminent danger...

What can work, however, is bringing those countries that the United States feel harbor criminals (terrorists) closer to us so that we won't be complaining that we had bad intellegence. It's a lot easier to get good intellegence when you are close to your enemy than when you are keeping him at arms length.

Now that leads me to bring up the same old stuff. We don't need to be planning a military assault on Iran; we need to bring them close to us!

We need to call a Middle East Peace Summit...

We need to find ways to redistribute resources in the US and abroad...

We need a Department of Peace to us PR around the world to get folks thinking differently...

We need to rid the US of Bush/Cheney thinking that puts personal profits above the betterment of mankind...

We need to tell Professor Harari that his brand of bigotry is not part of the solution...

We need to tell Sharon in no uncertain terms that as much as Isreal has a right to exist, so do the Palestians that he sees as spendable...

And, lastly, when the right wing neo-cons fill the empty-headed sheep with crap that we take the time to bring up the back of the flock with confrontaion, information and an expectation that these folks are not lost, just lazily misinformed...
