"We have about 50% of the world's wealth but only 6.3% of its population. This disparity is particularly great as between ourselves and the peoples of Asia. In this situation, we cannot fail to be the object of envy and resentment. Our real task in the coming period is to devise a pattern of relationships which will permit us to maintain this position of disparity without positive detriment to our national security. To do so, we will have to dispense with all sentimentality and day-dreaming; and our attention will have to be concentrated everywhere on our immediate national objectives. We need not deceive ourselves that we can afford today the luxury of altruism and world-benefaction."
~ US State Department, 1948
Where did this person think she was? She should have had more respect for the locals she was walking amongst. The Indian people don't take too...
If the UN wants to be truly democratic, there should be no vetoes, simple as. The present UN system is by design. Its failures to prevent war are...
I like watching the near death testimonies on [Link] and on:[Link]
I can see this coming soon to a country near you. Anyone who does not comply will be accused of violating someone else's rights.
Play in the dirt you're gonna get dirty. Quit whining and take your well-deserved lumps. LOL

I found this fist size "rock" between the rows in our garden; it appeared to have smashed some lettuce plants first before bouncing into the mulch between the rows. At that time of the summer, I was out there every morning, and when I first saw it I thought a raccoon may have taken a dump after munching on the lettuce (?); I even got the garden shovel to remove it and noticed it had a metallic sound to it. It had a sulfur-y smell,too (after realizing it wasn't poo). I contacted someone at the Observatory a half hour away to identify it and he said it was more like iron slag (from smelting) and it must of fell off a train or gotten kicked up by a truck...hmmm...train tracks are at least 200 yards away, and garden sets back from road about 75 yards with a septic mound in between. The "rock" didn't look anything like his meteor samples. I've kind of dismissed it as an unsolved mystery...but this story piques my curiosity again.
