IF I CAN DREAM

The last two weeks on Earth have shattered my confidence that all will be well.
I do NOT understand why the Royal Wedding is such a big fucking deal. The Royals aren't even in charge anymore!
We still act like a Monarchy;a people who bow down to the aristocracy as they kindly wave at us from their jewelled carriage.
People argue that in these troubled times we need some light relief.
Why not throw us another stimulus package or turn up the Bob Marley!
DONT make us sit there for 5 hours watching a bunch of stiffs pretending to have a good time!
The same day as the broadcast; there was a tornado in the United states that claimed the lives of around 280 people.
This did not even get two minutes of footage from the National News Broadcast.
The anchor was quick to get back to a survey on what dress Kate would be wearing.
On May Day,we were stunned to hear of the extermination of a Mr Osama Bin Laden.(founder of Al-Queda-a fundamentalist Muslim regime)
My first reaction was,who said YOU could.!?!
Doesn't every murderer,rapist,mind fucker deserve a fair trial? Their own day in court? Isnt that what the Law is for?
No.
The Americans had waited 10 years for this moment.
It was THEIR constituitional right to serve up justice any way they wanted.
5 other people were killed in the raid (4 of which were unarmed)This seems to pale in comparison to the 3,000 odd civillians that lost their life in 9/11.
Unfortunately,whose counting?
Is not EVERY human life of equal importance?
Of course it is.
Unfortunately,War does not rate it.
Part of the definition of WAR is as follows:
War generally involves two or more organized groups or parties (often, nations). Such a conflict is always an attempt at altering either the psychological or material hierarchy of domination or equality between such groups. In all cases, at least one participant (group) in the conflict perceives the need to either psychologically or materially dominate the other participant.
In this way, War reaches no conclusion.Any party prepared to go to War is not prepared to EVER see the others point of view.
Basically each party says,I see you and I RAISE you Motherfucker!!
Its a fatal roundabout.
The killing of Osama Bin Laden does nothing more than add fuel to the fire.
The Word of God has gradually become undone in a deadly game of Chinese Whispers.
The outcome undecided.
