Hawkmoon..you have certainly picked an appropriate nickname.
"Finally, Senator Mc Cain will tell us that we, those of us who are Americans, "have nothing to fear from each other." I agree strongly with this, but I take it one step further. We have nothing to fear from anyone on this living planet. Fear is the greatest impediment to the achievement of peace. We have nothing to fear from people who are different from us, from people who live in other countries, even from the people who run our government--and this we should have learned from our educations here. We can speak truth to power, we can allow our humanity always to come before our nationality, we can refuse to let fear invade our lives and to goad us on to destroy the lives of others. These words I speak do not reflect the arrogance of a young strong-headed woman, but belong to a line of great progressive thought, a history in which the founders of this institution play an important part. I speak today, even through my nervousness, out of a need to honor those voices that came before me, and I hope that we graduates can all strive to do the same."

Hawkmoon the US has created far more enemies then it has understood ..too many special forces and espionage related agencies employed for the monied power brokers..absolutely nothing democratic about it..and the new generation are left to pick up the pieces from the 'BLOWBACK'. If you don't know who the Power brokers really are ask Cheney he attends the meetings and that's why he sleeps during the normal government meetings and events.! |
