-Perhaps- the "war on terror" isn't going so well

-OR! could this be a scare tactic by the greedy, oil hungry liars inthe US government to prime the US people for another war--spin Iran

-OR---parts of the Patriot Act are coming up for ---renewal, let the fear begin.

SO I wonder if what we have done in Iraq worth, 1464 US soldiers dead, 10,000+ injured 80+thousands of innocent Iraqi citizens deadone billion dollars a week spent. if it is for our security... whyare we told to be insecure now more than ever? why are we being threatened again? or are we?

excuse me if I sound jaded- AGAIN!


CHUCK wrote this in a comment on this blog- I really liked it:

"" At this point in time many of us are jaded. It is a way of coping with a sense of powerlessness amidst the absurdity around us.It is a test of our COMPASSION when we have to deal with those who seem indifferent to the extent of the suffering our consumption policies and war policies produce.Waging PEACE is both difficult and problematic.
