In response to Fort Hood, Rightist screaming liberals are ignoring the problem and Progressive screaming that the right is stirring up hate is nothing new. However after 9/11 a Canadian Muslim legislator noted that young kids were radicalized, and spawned programs including in the US and Europe for Muslim kids to learn about the entire Koran, instead of al Qaeda repeated sometimes out of context quotes, that Islam Haters also repeat. Let’s organize now, even if the next incident will be internally desperate kids like at Columbine High.

People with strong opinions are being smeared and fired. Michael Moore, Sarah Palin, Van Jones and Marc Lamont Hill are unusual in that they clearly speak their mind, and aren’t joining the efforts of others to pour perfume on themselves while hurling bad tastes and odors at what they don’t like instead of explaining why.

Muslims fit in, in America, far more than in Europe. America stopped bragging about being a melting pot, but nevertheless it is still sometimes true. Employers sometime prize honest workers and customers can look for honest sales people. But there is a concerted effort from people from several political persuasions to change this. This effort needs to be countered. One terrible incident rather than many could mean we are fortunate that ouine. Elsewhere, David Horowitz and Tigre Hill and rewriting Black Panther, and Mumia abu-Jamal history to imply that the Panthers were the kind of people to snipe at police-cars and uniforms, and that Mumia felt empowered by the barrel of a gun, instead of by his endless essays before and after he was accused of murder, http://www.phillyimc.org/en/david-horowitz-smears-again-tigre-hill%E2%80... http://www.phillyimc.org/en/no-hate-speech-no-geert-wilders After 9/11, most accused of terror lost most of their Constitutional Rights. If Horowitz gets his way everyone as soon as they were accused of a heinous crime would lose their rights as well, and if Horowitz succeeds we might actually have a future President similar to ex-Vice-President Cheney bragging about infringing Constructional Freedoms. We may not be able to all get along but if we don't keep trying things might get far worse then theyr culture is so accepting of different ethic and religious groups. Can we keep it this way?

Mumia people and Muslims are upset with the hate David Horowitz blasts in both directions. His hate references to Muslims are Mumia are amazingly similar, spreading accusations of terrorist at both Mumia and Muslims yet there are two separate movements of oppose Horowitz not one, http://www.phillyimc.org/en/david-horowitz-smears-again-tigre-hill%E2%80%99s-mumia-trailer-depicts-mumia-terrorist RichardKanePA RichardKanePA.blogspot.com

I unlike most who worked for Obama to become President didn't chear him as a miracle worker like most hard working Obama supporters did, but expected him to be smeared the way Jimmy Carter. But suddenly Obama began to fight back. No more calling on the Washington Times reporter at a press conference, right after the paper smeared him. But somehow progressives like David Corn are not cheering. Let's join the President in standing up to the hate campaign against him.

Many look at General Stanley McChystal's grim assessment of the Afghan War, that we might lose in a hurry unless 40,000 thousand more troops are sent in as being superhawky, but he never implied that there is a good chance that the US would win even if sent. I want to interpret it as meaning victory is anything but certain no matter how many US troops get sent. In-other-words another reason to oppose the war.

The Moonie Washington Times Newspaper very involved in both encouraging and then supporting the Honduras coup and in making this a much more authoritarian world. Recently there have be exposes on them again but not on their close connections with right-wing Cubans.

The war is treated as a separate issue from health care, but anger and worry over the war deflates Obama's momentum for health care reform. I end up discussing the possibility of world government, but whether or not that happens any time soon just refering to the question of world government will allow us to discuss the war without thinking we have to decide whether the US is a savior in Afghanistan or an ogre.

Michael Jackson's sister and father talked of a general plan to Put Michael Jackson's life at risk right before he died, as the irresponsible people chased the more responsible staff away. But now everything is blamed on one Dr. Conrad Murray who had nothing to do with the efforts to limit Michael Jackson's contacts with relatives or with his cash disappearing. I have personal experience where someone sabotaged my efforts to save a friends life

We knew Michael Jackson, and that his desire to help kids far outweighed any desire to engage in activities that might cause them any harm. But is he really different from some of the others who helped kids but got accused of wrong doing? Are we going to lesson the witch hunt or just make exceptions for the rich and powerful?
