Glad you liked it, Rich. But the poet is a woman, I believe, reciting
her own poem, it seems, in the video if we are talking about the same
video and entity. JR

War is certainly hell. Why is that? Rich

The point I am making is not about war, but about how citizens are
being scripted to sup****t a false mission in their name (see Subject
Title for this thread) and how the script left out the part sup****ting
their troops means sup****ting them when they come home crazy
(described as personality disorder on their disharges to avoid 100%
disability *****sment and consequent financial sup****t) and become
homeless. Lincoln anticipated this, which is how the Veteran's
Administration originated. JR

"human nature never changes". Idealism is great because it creates a
better
world, but I'm no longer naive enough to believe there will ever be a
mass
change to a utopian world. Not that we shouldn't aspire to it... nor
ignore
threats to our safety and freedom. Rich

Self-realization leaves human nature behind like a pile of old rags.
Good to see you did not miss the point about stepping away from the
human consciousness and finding a purpose in life. Or is your boat
merrily merrily rowing down the stream with all the rest? JR

Now don't get me wrong, I'm not for war. =A0Been there done that in
enough
past lives to know better, and that's why I'm not involved in this
one.
Soul comes into this world for specific spiritual experiences and
trying to
change the choices of m***** of people is a losing battle. Rich

Change starts with exercising ones freedom to choose on purpose. Call
it survival. Hum a few bars of The Battle Hymn of the Republic for me
will you? See the lyrics below and recite aloud the words, "When
Johnny Comes Marching Home Again." The year is 2008. TV feeds the
script to mass mind today. Turn it off, think for yourself, and write
a poem. Better yet, do your Spiritual exercises.
Thanks for mocking up this dialog on blind obedience for the bots, Mr.
Smith. The next time you see a young man entering middle age with a
back-pack on the street, not likely in Hawaii eh?, speak to him and if
his breath smells rancid from hunger, buy him or her a hamburger and
throw your yellow ribbons away.

one third of the homeless men in this country are veterans
and we have the nerve to Sup****t Our Troops
with pretty yellow ribbons
while giving nothing but dirty looks to their outstretched hands
tell me what land of the free
