The longer I read the "news", the less I am informed and the more I am confused and finally end up with a big headache and getting really physically sick.
Who knows what reality consists of or even what it really is about. If you base your earthly reality on what you read or see the world wide web or the 'media' which is a loose term that defines public opinion and what used to be called news you are operating on some kind of absurd delusion/illusion. The current masters of the universe who adhere to a cult of ancient and modern human nastiness have somehow managed to redefine reality.
PLEASE NOTE: What follows is obviously not directed at my friends at The 99. It is an essay excerpt written for a different place. I wanted my colleagues to see it, because parts of it are inspired by things I've learned here and by links I've followed that were posted here.

We should be ever mindful of the fact that ISIS are a creation of US imperialist slaughter and mass displacement, along with secular liberal authoritarianism and suppression.
Any US meddling in the region should be opposed wholesale by the genuine left, if it does exist, for the horrors of US imperialism that it is
I am struggling to reconcile the logic of Europeans, Americans, or other foreign entities who heroically opposed the Iraq war with now supporting mass slaughter against sovereign nationals or so-called rebels in Syria, Iraq, or anywhere else in the Middle East. My position is this: Oppose any bombing of Syria or any sovereign region by the US, France, Great Britain, Australia, Russia or any other murderous regime with a squadron of warplanes ready to inflict the terror of aerial bombardment.
Solidarity with those people being terrorized from the skies is the natural position of a truly sentient human being with an undamaged mind.
