08 Apr 09 - 07:55 AM (#2607212) Subject: RE: The Crowhouse From: Lizzie Cornish 1 Oh right....back to the Corporate religious/new order tripe then? So this ol' world, is pretty darn perfect as it is then? No need for any of us to change our outlook, or the way we live, the way we raise our children, what we expect and demand of our leaders? No need to push for change, to BE the change, to be our OWN leaders? "We did not hesitate to call our movement an army. But it was a special army, with no supplies but its sincerity, no uniform but its determination, no arsenal except its faith, no currency but its conscience." ~Martin Luther King, Jr., Why We Can't Wait, 1963 "We will have to repent in this generation not merely for the vitriolic words and actions of the bad people, but for the appalling silence of the good people." ~Martin Luther King, Jr. 'Anthem for Dissent' on Youtube Written by Ann Onimus (a Native American lady who prefers to keep her name private) Narrated by Splitting The Sky Arranged by Ron Bankley 'ANTHEM FOR DISSENT' "United in fear we trade freedom, our prize for the Patriot Act as united we securitize United in power over patriarchy, we misogynize United in self-righteous arrogance, we imperialise Untied in degenerate genital mutilation, we circumcise United we consume and spend, and, united, we capitalize United in greed we exploit, as united we multinationalize United we commit economic suicide as, united, we globalise United in beligerent violence, we waste trillions as, united, we militarize United we massacre millions and think we're so brave United we fantasize United we bomb, destroy, maim, mass murder, slaughter and terrorize United in massive denial we look the other way, as united, we atrocitize United in 'might makes right', we dominate and, united, we hegemonize United we pillage the third world and then, united, we moralize United we covet their resources and, united, we monopolize United in total denial we deny that, united, we brutalize United we believe without question the star spangled propaganda our leaders so unceasingly televise United we, so very obediently, swallow the many fabricated red white and blue lies United we're so blind, with closed eyes except wide-eyed Ashcroft spies And in the many resource rich countries that, united, we occupy and we colonize And united we impoverish and victimize Yet another corporate billion is pried and yet another heart broken mother cries and yet another star spangled bomb drops And yet another innocent child heinously dies Yet another example of united we collateralize Just U.S. business as usual, as united we privatize United we stand completely deranged Global terrorist in our 'freedom and democracy' disguise As united we stand apathetic and complicit in American terrorism As united we turn on TV to de-sensitise As united we stand in massive denial As united we ignore the innocent pleas of the innocent ones we exterminate As united we stand inanely pledging allegiance to the flag of facist terrorism As their blood on it dries As united we stand, surrendering our freedom to the real 'axis of evil' Corporation, CIA, and Military guise As united we stand with our heads in the sand, as the American Fourth Reich is born And freedom dies As united we stand so comfortably numb and deniably dumb That united we don't have sense to realise That united we stand on the brink of the New World Order totalitarian police state United we are so...... Blind" The Change - Written by Ron Bankley and JT Oglesby |

Needless to say, Splitting the Sky ended up in prison, whilst George went on to have a cosy lunch with hundreds of people who'd paid a small fortune to hear him talk. Splitting The Sky And you think we don't need to change, Les? |

" Yes I do, I have thought so and organised for change for around 50 years and I agree with most of what you have posted above. I just didn't care for the content of the video, Best wishes Les |

Thanks for the link about Splitting-the-Sky. Reminded me to check Leonard Peltier's site to see what might be new with him, too. |
