the global responsability: actions and inactions. From Katin to Iraq

Ring around the Roses,
a pocketful of posies.
Ashes, ashes,
we all fall down!

There is a new plague throughout the world. A plague called deafness of the heart. Contentment. Non-active behaviour. Blame outsourcing. Selfishness. Ostricht style blindness. Ennui. A plague cherished by the actual sublimation of self castration of the will to locate blames out of our entourages. By self induced innocence, for it is not us who make the bombs, the bullets. Look at your shoes, your shirts, your jeans: do you think they would be worth 40/50$ if hoestly manufactured in an European country, where social rights are guaranteed? Do you think we could keep our actual standard of living if a global equality of rights existed? death is necessary; poverty is necessary; war is unavoidable to keep prices and interest rates. I strongly suggest the reading of Eduardo Galeano's "las venas abiertas de América Latina" (the open veins of Latin America), in order to know about intrahistory. Realism, reasons d'etat, economical decisions concerning retirement of stocks are necessary for the keeping o fthe occidental way of life. The problem is that the formerly scattered arab tribal groups -which later became, artificially, nations-, have found a catalyzator, someone to hate, a reason for them to get together: us. We have crumpled the ages-old "divide and conquer" politics, and have succeeded at the only task we shouldn't have ever started: to become the occidental demon in the eyes of many. If we add the massive emigration fluxes, the new world powers revelation, Chaos in the ancient communist regimes and a pathetically obvious decadence of Occidental culture, might not we feel doomed? Let us fill our pockets with roses, look for red or black blotches on our necks and pray (those which haven't forgotten God). Vale.
