Well, it appears they believe they can lie, steal and kill and get away with it.....so far they have? Hmmm, I wonder if 11:23 is significant to anything?......we've seen the tragedy, only question is what they mean by Hope and peace for whom?<g> "The sign post up ahead reads....the twilight zone".....where fantasy and reality become the Big Idea....To Be or Not To Be? Mary had a little lamb.....it's fleece was white as snow..... ....I'm off to the salt mines to serve the master another day? God save us all.....from this nightmare

LOL.....I am, but a helpless atom in a reluctant world carrying the weight of the universe.? Bertrand Russell, part 2 youtube.com ...meanwhile, all stocks go to zero....and the theft of equity and sovereignty vanish into the night, by those who would have us be slaves to their will? Austerity is poverty of mind.......the state has no wisdom......therefore, it must be conquered for fate demands it.<g> "He who learns must suffer And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget Falls drop by drop upon the heart, And in our own despite, against our will, Comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God." "I would far rather be ignorant than knowledgeable of evil.", "Death is better, a milder fate than tyranny." “Some men see things as they are and ask why. Others dream things that never were and ask why not.” Pink Floyd, The Great Gig In The Sky youtube.com "Victims of the violence are black and white, rich and poor, young and old, famous and unknown. They are most important of all, human beings whom other human beings loved and needed. No one can be certain who next will suffer from some senseless act of bloodshed, and yet it goes on, and on, and on, in this country of ours. Whenever any American's life is taken by another American unnecessarily, whenever we tear at the fabric of our lives which another man has painfully and clumsily woven for himself and his children, whenever we do this, then the whole nation is degraded. Too often, we honour swagger and bluster and the wielders of force. Too often we excuse those who are willing to build their own lives from the shattered dreams of other human beings. But this much is clear, Violence breeds violence, repression breeds retaliation, and only a cleansing of our whole society can remove this sickness from our souls. For when you teach a man to hate and to fear his brother, when you teach that he is a lesser man because of his color, or his beliefs or the policies that he pursues, when you teach that those who differ from you, threaten your freedom or your job or your home or your family, then you also learn to confront others not as fellow citizens, but as enemies. To be met not with co operation but with conquest, to be subjugated, and to be mastered. We learn at the last to look at our brothers as aliens. Alien men with whom we share a city, but not a community. Men bound to us in common dwelling, but not in a common effort. We learn to share only a common fear, only a common desire to retreat from each other, only a common impulse to meet disagreement with force. Our lives on this planet are too short, the work to be done is too great. But we can perhaps remember, that those who live with us are our brothers, that they share with us the same short moment of life that they seek as do we, nothing but the chance to live out their lives in purpose and in happiness, surely this bond of common fate, this bond of common roles can begin to teach us something, that we can begin to work a little harder, to become in our hearts brothers and countrymen once again." Bertrand Russell, part 3 youtube.com
