    OT: Terry Jones(Monty Python) about the War.

    Hi.

    Here are 2 articles written by Terry Jones of Monty Python fame about the IRAQ situation.

    OK, George, make with the friendly bombs

    I'm losing patience with my neighbours, Mr Bush

    Some might not like the way he puts things into perspective.

    Or takes them out of it, as the case may be.

    He makes a good argument. Too bad it doesn't have anything to do with the war.

    Please pay attention:

    Pre-emptive attack is bad.
    This war is not about pre-emptive attack.

    Filling the media with a position which everyone agrees with and falsely associating it with a policy under debate is called propaganda. It is a way of lying to people so you can control what they do, say, and think. It's different than a picture of a swimsuit model holding a sign saying "People who hate Bush get to have sex with me" only in degree of subtlety.

    The grounding for war is based upon a 12-year violation of UN legislation. There's nothing pre-emptive about that, and it's entirely unrelated to the argument Terry Jones makes.

    Braden.

    I couldn' care what you think about it, nor anyone else.

    So shut your TRAP the Post is for EVERYONE not for your benefit to enlighten me or anybody else, or proof your superiority as you are so fond of doing.

    In your eagerness to crusade against me you overlooked that the Guy is a Comedian.

    Peace is not the product of terror or fear.
    Peace is not the silence of cemeteries.
    Peace is not the silent result of violent repression.
    Peace is the generous, tranquil contribution of all to the good of all.
    Peace is dynamism. Peace is generosity.
    It is right and it is duty.

    T.J.,.... What a fruit. Saddam terrorizes innocent people for years, but hey, he's a diplomat, the rules of civilization shoudn't apply to him. Fuzzy and dangerous logic there. Whatever, just another fruity "english" guy spouting off.

    Check the link in the Post above yours.

    Yoko is Erasian, did some JMA and has wonderful adventures.

    There are baddies, friends from the future, etc.

    Just the right reading for the teen I was.
