The keyboard is mightier than the machine gun... The political, philosophical and general outpourings of a troubled soul living in Australia and blogging his Vietnam veteran's head off.
Nothing in this blog can be believed. If you think that anything in this blog is true or factual, you'll need to verify it from another source. Do you understand? No? Then read it again, and repeat this process, until you understand that you cannot sue me for anything you read here. Also, having been sucked into taking part in the mass-murder of more than 3 million Vietnamese people on behalf of U.S. Big Business "interests", I'm as mad as a cut snake (and broke) so it might be a bit silly to try to sue me anyway...

The counter shown below displays the number of Israeli military personnel refusing to serve in the Occupied Territories. I applaud their integrity and their strength of character. To me they are heroes of peace and humanity.

Hahaha... It puts Australia in its place, doesn't it? But I love the idea of invading Italy. Just because.
It shows how people who have abolutely no idea of what they're talking about will happily consign millions of people, about whom they know zip, to death and even manage to feel GOOD about it...
And these people are given a vote...
There's just GOT to be something wrong with democracy when this sort of thing becomes pretty much the norm...
And it's not a lot better here in Oz.
Glad you put that last sentence in. I bet most of us Australians have no idea what's going on with our neighbours in the Pacific, say (or where they are).
Still. Surely most people are now better informed than most other people at any time in history? Generally speaking. I don't think we're getting stupider, is what I mean. Maybe propaganda is now more clever, and maybe more widespread? But I'm not sure about that either; counter-arguments are probably also more clever and widespread.
Still, someone thinking Australia is North Korea... Good grief. As if we could all march in time.
