I agree. This was a deliberate gift to Bush’s “base” base.

We’ll see. I really think the Christains believe they will be transported to “Heaven” in their Lazyboys complete with TEEVEE remote clutched firmly in hand.

In the meantime, this war has driven up the price of oil! When OPEC’s cut in supply didn’t work, they just…..started a war.

It is totally disgusting and the propaganda is so thick you can cut it with a knife.

Kudos Annie. Love YA always, Kassandra

PS: Fav song: “Love IS A Stranger in an Open Car” they never paly that one, I wonder why?

The people are tired of this “DAVID & GOLIATH” ongoing saga.It needs to end.Dropping bombs from the sky on a captive audience.

And the reports say that “militants” were killed.Says who?

Thanks for highlighting Annie. A living legend. An often overlooked song of hers appropriate for right now:

The current war lovin’ occupant of the WH and his band of true believers are Christian zionists who urge the nation of Israel to “hurry God up” in his efforts to bring about Armageddon.

The belief is that only after Israel is involved in a final violent showdown involving a satanic army (in most interpretations, a force of Arabs led by Russians) will Christ reappear.

On that bloody day, Bush and his True Believers will be whisked up to Heaven by God, while the rest of us nonbelievers are left behind on Earth to suffer various tortures.

So hang in there and wait until January 20th for Barack to bring some sanity to this awful situation.

I posted a diary at DailyKos two hours ago, called:

IDF Gaza Offensive Thoughts - I Was Denounced as an Anti-Semite

Got a lot of negative comments about my “persection complex” and “anti-Semitism” at first, but the diary is starting to provoke some earnest discussion.

Good for Annie Lennox!!

The Israelis have been taking lessons from Junya and Deadeye:

We have to do better. Our country cannot continue down this path…we cannot be a people of continuing war. We really are the only ones to save us.

LEADERS?
who said we had those?
the past 8 years is proof enough for me that that particular concept does not exist, and you know how it goes, Teddy.
There’s “only one president at a time”, even if he’s canceled/absent/missing/WRONG!
