The Middle East conflict

The most important thing (in my opinion) one can read on the Israeli problem is "The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy," by Professors Walt and Mearsheimer.

It details exactly how U.S. foreign policy is  completely controlled by the Zionist Lobby.

As a result, the U.S. always supports Israel, contrary to International Law and the consensus of the rest of the world, single handedly vetoing over 50 U.N. peace resolutions.

The result:  Continued war, lives lost, terrorism, 9/11, loss of treasure and life.

You can read the paper at www.lrb.co.uk (by searching "Israel Lobby"); or http://ksqnotes1.harvard.edu (entering "Walt"); or email me and I will send you a copy; or buy the book online.....

The problem is there is no solution barring radical campaign finance reform, which we will not get.

THE SNAKE

The Snake is Black.

Big, Black Snake

slithers across my white down bed

while I am underneath

sleeping.

I inhale

and 

four ruby roses

root me to the

Earth Mama.

Exhail

steamy petals

stream upwards

and two blood oranges 

beneath my belly move

spine twists

spine spins

and a Big Bright Sun

bursts open in my Center

The Snake is dancing now

dancing in my belly 

dancing in my breath

In hale, long, ...and deep, and full...

The air is better here with you

Ana hata

"this vibration which exists to enrapture 

and console"

but I want to talk to you

i want to tell you how beautiful it

is here

Can you hear me?

Can you see

Can you see the Snake becoming white

Can you see the jewels in its crown?

Yes, you say.

I hear

I see.

It is clear
