hegemony equals control and dominance or boys with toys will play war games that are really not games at all:

Max Boot scoffs incredulously at the idea of Paul Wolfowitzbeing compared to
Osama bin Laden, but is that so farfetched?

Osama bin Laden orchestrated a violent attack on innocent civilians in a country he deemed to be a threat to his belief system and way of life. Paul Wolfowitz and the other architects of the illegal war in Iraq trumped up phony evidence of false threats to justify the bombing and destruction of a country killing tens of thousands of civilians.

Does Max Boot think that the Muslim mother whose child is killed by an American bomb feels any differently than the mother who lost her son on Sept. 11?

Americans have, for the most part, been exempt from the genuine tragedy of war and, as a consequence, appear more ready to accept myths about war. They have never endured the reality against which other nations readily measure the cost of combat. And this makes us a very dangerous people.

Richard A. Gabriel

=============

America's one-time ally, Osama bin Laden, when he served as a freedom fighter against the Soviets in Afghanistan and when American's bombed his Serbian enemies while siding with his friends in Kosovo, has not been fooled and knows that his cause cannot be promoted by America's fickle foreign policy. There is no evidence that this policy serves the interests of anyone on Earth but America's.

It certainly increases the danger to all American as America has become the number one target of terrorists. Conventional war against America is out of the question, but acts of terrorism, whether it is the shooting down of a civilian airliner or bombing a New York City building, are almost impossible to prevent in a reasonably open society. It is hard for the average citizen of these countries to understand why Americans must be so involve in their affairs, and resort so readily to bombing and boycotts in countries thousands of miles away from America. American foreign policy is deeply flawed and does not serve American national security interest. American foreign policy in the Middle East has endangered some of the moderate Arab governments and galvanized Muslim militants.

-Ron Paul, U.S. Congressman from Texas, excerpts of Nov. 17, 1999 speech

============

The soul clearly understands that the flight is given to the spirit so that it may be elevated;

Corrupt individuals have a tremendous fear of knowledge which is accompanied by humility and virtue;

There is no one now living who sees directly the great illusion in which we walk and the blindness in which we suffer;

Corruption will not deceive with illusions the individual of prayer who consults knowledgeable men, unless this individual wants to be deceived;

If the Lord has given you the grace to enjoy His love, you will through your intelligence and knowledge understand what is being said here;

It is one grace to receive the Lord's favor; another, to understand which favor and grace it is; and a third, to know how to describe and explain it;

One does not know how to speak of union with the Lord, nor do I think anyone will believe me or understand it is possible unless they have experienced it themselves;

'religion': http://www.unique-design.net/library/word/religion.html
Belief in and reverence for a supernatural power or powers regarded as creator and governor of the universe.

Specifically, conformity in faith and life to the precepts in the Bible, respecting the conduct of life and duty toward God and man; the Christian faith and practice of the imitation of Jesus as an expression of the love we feel for Jesus.

The outward act or form by which men indicate their recognition of the existence of a god or of gods having power over their destiny, to whom obedience, service, and honor are due; the feeling or expression of human love, or awe of a inconceivable power, whether by profession of belief, by observance of ritual, or by the conduct of life; a system of faith and worship; a manifestation of piety.

The idea of God is not a harmful one. Understanding that there is something greater than man, the Creator, helps men to see their actual insignificance. Organized religion is really just a social control mechanism. Those that espouse a religion do so because they have so much emotional baggage tied up in it.

The problem with organized religion is that – for the most part – it is not being used for the benefit of mankind. Organized religion is being used for the benefit and sustenance of those in power, not only within the church but also politically. Evil men have taken religion from a personal relationship with God to a commercialized transaction with too many middle managers. When that happens, corruption and hypocrisy follow. And they have.

Organized religion – perhaps mankind's most effective form of social control – is spending too much time and resources trying to influence humans and far too little time and resources trying to make the Earth a better place.

?? "Most of the original neo-cons started out as left wing New York Jewish intellectuals. The neo-conservatives, mostly former Trotskyites, had the good fortune of changing their minds about almost everything starting in the mid 1960's, just as the political fortunes of the left began to collapse. Today they are far richer and more influential as right wing New York Jewish intellectuals" - Jonathan Chait.
.../... supporters of George W. Bush's 'war on terror' use business tactics that mirror military tactics - ruthlessly destroy the competition which is branded as the enemy. Hard for those who love thy neighbor as thyself to compete against. Subjugation and enslavement comes easy to those who believe themselves to be the 'chosen ones'. Any one up for a game of Monopoly?

.../...
Refusing to be intimidated by the received traditions and confident of their own integrity and creative capacities, they demanded to know why things must be the way they are; and they had the imagination, energy, and moral stature to conceive of something closer to the grain of everyday reality which would be more likely to lead to individual and collective human happiness.

Americans have the need and the opportunity to recast the existing corrupt American culture .

Americans have the obligation, as inheritors of the founding Father's success, to view every establishment critically, to remain in some sense on the margins, and forever to ask why things must be the way they are, that it is never enough to say they must be so, one needs to know why."
