Happy New Year (with Sadness)

It can't be good. I was on Allenby Bridge not long ago. Kinda like route one in the East - I think it goes by the Knesset (Israeil Senate)

Thanks Bush. Thanks Sharon. Thanks Arafat.

A New Year from Hell

I weep for Israel.

I weep for Palestine.

I weep for Iraq.

I weep for our children in Irq.

God DAMN these Bushes and their evil collaborators

8. Living in fear for the rest of your life is not living.
But thank God this was not an actual bombing and no one was killed.

The terrorists and the war mongers have won. None of us will ever be able to live without a deep seeded terror in our spirits and the knowledge that our deeds and misdeeds have sent a ripple throughout the universe that will evoke endless waves of unforseeable events.

6. Well, that is good news

But the axis of evil: Bush/Sharon/Arafat are still there making life hell for all of us.
