when Americans, of the center, left and right, are awakened from slumbers to support action being taken to save lives in other places, the first word to occur should be caution, at the very least...and if they purport to be on the left, and even more purportedly support something approaching radical change, they ought to be damned careful about engaging in the same old mud slinging, name calling crap that rationalizes every single slaughter undertaken in foreign countries by this benign imperial power...
yeah., right, we should all stop the genocide wherever we are told it is being conducted by others, and remain helpless to do anything about the countless murders committed in our name, on an ongoing basis, while we name-call, repeat imperial slogans under the guise of democracy, and generally act as stooges for the empire...
watch for the uncovering of mass graves in the sudan, linked to milosevic, hussein, whatever it takes to get even more attention given to something to make mass murderers here, look like some form of savior, there...
we support democracy and freedom, everywhere, especially at our keyboards...
yeah, right....
