Orwell Is Almost Our Litmus

I Love Irony In Pictures. There's One Photograph From Vietnam By Philip Jones Griffiths That Shows A Very Large Gi Having His Pocket Picked By A Tiny Vietnamese Woman. It Told The Whole Story Of The Clash Of Two Cultures And How The Invader Could Never Win.

I'm Absolutely Convinced Of That. Israel Is The Representative Of The United States In That Part Of The World. Its Policies Are So Integrated With American Policies That They Use The Same Language.

If Those Who Support Aggressive War Had Seen A Fraction Of What I've Seen, If They'd Watched Children Fry To Death From Napalm And Bleed To Death From A Cluster Bomb, They Might Not Utter The Claptrap They Do.

If I Were A Teacher, I Would Recommend That All My Students Very Hurriedly Read Most Of Orwell's Books, Especially 1984 And Animal Farm, Because Then They'd Begin To Understand The World We Live In.

In The Sublime Days Before 11 September 2001, When The Powerful Were Routinely Attacking And Terrorising The Weak, And Those Dying Were Black Or Brown-skinned Non-people Living In Faraway Places Such As Zaire And Guatemala, There Was No Terrorism. When The Weak Attacked The Powerful, Spectacularly On 9/11, There Was Terrorism.
