In the Merry Month of May

(Originally Posted May 2, 2011)

On a day when perhaps a million people across the globe were in the streets protesting, supporting worker's rights -- after months of revolutionary activity in every part of the world -- on that day, miraculously, they make this announcement of bin Laden's death (something that probably happened years back) and then, the prize pig at the biggest county fair of all, they dump his body in to the sea.

I found this on the internet:
"U.S. personnel identified him by facial recognition, the official said, declining to say whether DNA analysis had also been used.

The U.S. team took custody of bin Laden's remains. A U.S. official later said bin Laden had been buried at sea and the remains were handled in accordance with Islamic practice, which calls for speedy burial."

Wow, I, personally, might have taken at least one or two post-mortem photos. I guess crime scene photograhers just don't work on Sundays in Islamabad. Good taste didn't stop them from posting pictures of Hussein. So, why not now?

And then, of course, there is this rather interesting "fact" -- U.S. personnel identified him by facial recognition.

It's kinda curious there is no "evidence". But every thing about 9/11 has been crystal clear so far, so I guess there's no reason why we should have any doubts as to the "truth" now. Right?

This is a time of the most naked aggression . . . the bait and swtich is truly working hard. Schools being dismantled; civil rights legislation being amended to death and children, innocents born in luxury but too soon tossed in to the stormiest of seas, ready to have their minds and hearts poked and prodded in hopes they will carry forward the conservative torch . . . forget the ways it "used to be".

A dark time and then this myth, played out with all this pomp and circumstance. The Royal Wedding and now, bin Laden's capture and death.

Coincidence? Perhaps.

But after years of the most outlandish lies, on this most interesting date: May 1 -- and with protesters out, en masse, across the world . . . on this day, they make "the announcement".

Seriously . . . at least TRY to make it believable.
