The world is being run by a bunch of cold heartless monsters...

[Virginia Dare]

Against my better judgement, I did watch the news last night, and this is what I saw:

Horribly injured children and babies screaming in pain and agony. Children and babies who have lost their homes and are living in parks. Children and babies who are dead.

Remember when saving Terri Schiavo's life was a big emergency, and the fucking bastards were flying in to Washington from all over the country and calling special sessions of Congress?

All of you "culture of life" bastards who are allowing this to go on, in the name of money, greed and power, can go straight to hell.

6. We've always been like this.... Just that now

7. just think how much different this could all be

if the US had done our job and actually restrained Israel from destroying so many innocent Lebanese lives, instead of the lip service/green light we gave them.

8. What I don't understand is this...

because of their actions, Israeli citizens' lives are being destroyed as well. The scary thing is, I would fully expect our government to use the same cold calculations on its citizenry. They are already doing it with our soldiers. How long before it comes to this for the U.S. people?

:scared:

11. Virginia, it' hard for sentient beings to understand.

But it's quite simple, when you follow the money, there power and the dogs of war are close at heel.

9. When I despair

When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of Truth and Love has always won. There have been tyrants and murderers, and for a time, they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall. Think of it. Always.
