Anyone who's read my journals on DU3 or DU2 can see that. Besides, were I some kind of a chicken hearted lily livered turd, I wouldn't go after the BFEE -- the War Party and its minions and hypocrites in the national security state -- or wonder about things that invite ridicule from the unknowing and the unaware, as well as from the devious and the vindictive, such as UFOs or crop circles, or other interesting and unexplained phenomena.

Even though they and their lackeys have access to the passwords, among other things, I've written about them. What's interesting, when considering the question of cowardice, is seeing that you never post anything critical of the warmongers and banksters of the BFEE on any thread I've started on DU. Nor do any turn up using the GOOGLE site search tool. Maybe not criticizing the warmongers and banksters of the BFEE is the smart thing to do in your book. That's not brave in mine.
