Humanity

Today I saw the worst things. Innocient people being slaughtered. The War between Israel and Lebenon is senseless. As a human being it hurt me to see images of dead babies, women carrying their dead children,and mutilated bodies lying about the street. This has to stop. The U.S. will not even try to do something. We are the ones who destabalized that region we played jenga with regional politics. we are partially, not fully, but partilaly to blame. When we are needed to step in we want to play as if it hasn' t any thing to do with us. Genocide is occuring there, and we stand idly by and watch. where is everyone's humanitarian spirit now? Intervention is needed. Human beings cannot be allowed to be treated this way. We get the sanitized version of the events occuring. So I go to www.fromisraeltolebanon.info, and see what is really going on.

Why are we there? Why are we, the world's police there? To spread democracy? What is the democracy we fight to spread? Free markets? I think it's "free markets." Not democracy. And we know that free markets, here at home, mean the best deal on labor that we can get. Lets all rise up for that... not. But, that's what our troups are fighting for... their futures, their jobs, opened up there. Globalization has immediate consequences, the long-term may work out otherwise, but the immediate is the diminishment of the American middle class. And the American middle class is fighting the war! To fuck themselves! Fucking amazing.
