Woo hoo! Today's link of the week~ The Boy Who Cried Iraq
Thanks Rob! =D
History has been repeating itself. It makes me wonder if we're going to have a Red Scare or something....maybe we already have and I haven't been exposed to it because of course terrorists couldn't be white. *gasp*
You know...I'm tempted to say that this topic is so depressing and I've beaten it to death...and then I realize that people are dying and more are going to die. This is something that is going to affect this world for a long long time to come. I'm not allowed to just shut up.
Also, I don't feel horrible about this war just by history...I just...I have a bad feeling about it. Not that things will happen immediately...but years down the road this will be the first set of dominoes. I just have a really bad feeling about it all.
*laughs* how utterly scientific and logical is that. Then again when did I completely rely on that in the first place.
mmm...pez.
My friend Will has a theory about history...he calls it the "wheel theory", I believe...history is a wheel that can move forward but it's also a set of recurring circumstances. So this allows for progress within the cycle, to advance rather than wallow in stagnation. Unfortunately, it ALSO allows for a repeat of the terrible things of the past (the World Wars, the Hitlers and Stalins and Maos, the racism, slavery...I could keep going on). And this topic IS depressing, but that's life, so you might as well keep talking, to at least say SOMETHING rather than languish in silent assent...because you don't even dissent. And I'm sure I'm not particularly (at ALL) coherent, so I'll stop...(I'm neither scientific nor logical in my thoughts, either...) *laughs* mmm, pez, indeed ^_^
