"The world is my country, all mankind are my brethren, and to do good is my religion." -Thomas Paine

"Man has no right to kill his brother. It is no excuse that he does so in uniform: he only adds the infamy of servitude to the crime of murder"  
 - Percy Bysshe Shelley





You could or would be a coward if you had enough courage
 

No coward soul is mine,
No trembler in the world's storm-troubled sphere:
I see Heaven's glories shine, And Faith shines equal, arming me from Fear.
~ Emily Bromte

Ladies and gentlemen, hobos and tramps,

Bug-eyed mosquitoes and bowlegged ants!

I'm about to tell you a story I've never heard before,

So pull up a chair and sit on the floor.

Admission is free, so pay at the door.

One fine day, in the middle of the night,

two, dead boys got up to fight.

Back to back, they faced each other,

drew their swords and shot each other.

A deaf policeman heard the noise,

and saved the lives of the two dead boys.

If you don't believe my lies are true,

ask the blind man, he saw it too!

The Politics of Panic Mongering in the Middle East

Israel’s Existential Threat

by ANDREW LEVINE

As social divisions mount, they help hold Israeli society together.  They also keep “diaspora” Jews on board.
 
And they keep Western, especially American, diplomatic, military and economic support coming.
This is crucial now that Western publics are beginning to realize that untrammeled support for a European colonial project, an ethnocratic settler state, in the heart of the Middle East is problematic – not only for moral reasons, but for reasons of national interest as well.
 

Serviceable existential threats are hard to find.  So far, however, Israel has made due.
But times change.  Before long, it may actually face a real one, an existential threat worthy of the name.  The irony is palpable.

 
If and when this happens, it will be an object lesson: be careful what you wish for.
