This says it all for me. There is just little hope for human beings.

1. You forgot a few

Fallujah,

New Orleans,

Guantanamo,

Rawanda,

Nanking,

Hiroshima,

Nagasaki,

the Holocaust,

Sabra and Shatila,

Dresden,

Apartheid,

slavery,




All examples of humanitys inhumanity.

It is a miracle we are still here.

3. Of course we're still here, the strong kill off the weak, then steal

their valuables and formally or informally enslave any of the survivors.
It's the application of 'Free Market Kapitalizm' to international politics.

If you'd just accept a centrist position on this rather than insisting on being a bleeding heart 'lefty librul' it would seem perfectly natural. The world is OK; it's your politics that have gone wrong. :sarcasm:

2. No human being with a conscience on this planet can

condone what Israel is doing to Lebanon with American complicity and European silence.

christians my fugging ass - they are murderers on their crusade for land, oil,water and free or cheap labour. Whoever is in their way will die. That has always been their modus operandi whether victims were Indigenous People, Africans, Communists, Muslims, whoever. Five hundreds years of hell - that is European expansionsim starting with Portugal, Spain and the fugging pope.
Now its led by the United States and the fugging Zionists from Europe.

How can humanity sit back and watch human beings being murdered in the name of profits. Stop Facism Now!!!

4. And when we've finished destroying life on earth

When we've poisoned the mother seas and whalesong falls silent
When we've laid waste to the forests, its ceatures but melancholy echoes of the past
When the seasons have ceased to turn, betraying the constant of our memories
and the glittering play of flight is swept away on a parching wind
When at last not the smallest refuge can be found free of the mark of our passing
and with it laid that last footstep of our self-destruction
Who will testify to our silent regrets
As Gaia sleeps.

[pecwae]

5. Hopefully Gaia

will have a healing sleep in our absence and waken renewed.
