We cannot ever think that ending the state of Israel is the solution to ending war in the Middle East. I use to think that, not because I wanted a group of people who had just gone through genocide to be homeless and humiliated, but because I wanted the conquered to get revenge. People and land were conquered in Mesopotamia in 1948 and again in 1967, as is true of many other times in that faucet of humanity. I think my friend is right when he says that the best thing the Palestinian’s could do is to fight for annexation, and then equal rights and democracy within that new artificially made boarder. Let’s face it, our troubles are all same whether the line of skirmish is here or over there. We really need to make the idea of borders obsolete. “Borders, good god! What are they good for? Absolutely nothing, say it again! . .” Why wont that happen? Why do you think Puerto Rico is never talked about? That island is slavery in a new, or should I say old (4th century B.C. Greece), way. In many ways, the people of Puerto Rico enjoy a vast array of democratic rights and have power to earn and sell, but they have no chance at any power in the government who controls them, beyond tokenism. Wait, what did T.F.F. die for? Oh yeah, taxation without masturbation. The end of borders is not an idea to be put into any kind of action in politics. It is more a philosophy of life, and one that proclaims that these borders that bind us to tradition, when it comes to commerce, have already been breeched.

Be a virus in an established idea. It’ll keep that idea strong or kill it.

Merry Happy,
