A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little statesman and philosophers and divines. With consistency a great soul has simply nothing to do.

Re: Syria- The next domino?
Well, it's obvious why we cherry pick who to help. Even John Stewart did a whole thing about it (just saying that's mainstream).
As for no one toppling the government here, I'd say that has a lot to do with a high standard of living and far less of a chance of defeating our military/paramilitary.
I think it's also the attitude - the culture. We're far more satiated than they are.

Originally Berbers that were assimilated into the Arab culture, Sunni Muslim. I know that Morocco controls their Saharan home land and that they have been subject to much colonial manipulation. Not much more than that. Will read up on it now.Snow Crash wrote:Are you familiar with the Saharawi, Oz?Ozfactor wrote:Damn right. Securely fastened it is.

Natives of the former Spanish colony of Western Sahara. Have been under military occupation since Morocco invaded. A huge wall now cuts the territory into pieces (sound familiar?) while the natives in occupied lands are brutalized (sound familiar?) while the UN allows Morocco to continue unchecked (sound familiar?). The Moroccans invaded off the back of a vision of a 'Greater Morocco' (sound familiar?).Egg wrote:What's that, Snow?Snow Crash wrote:Are you familiar with the Saharawi, Oz?Ozfactor wrote:Damn right.

If you get the chance to see it, check the documentary 'El Problema'. It's a history of 'The Problem', as the Saharawi refer to the occupation.Ozfactor wrote:Originally Berbers that were assimilated into the Arab culture, Sunni Muslim.

Re: Syria- The next domino?
Thanks Snow Crash I'll do that. Checked out the trailer and looks to be well done.
I'm just emerging from a long sabbatical from the ugliness. I get so angry at the apathy and blindness that my patience runs thin to non-existent. I was so immersed in Sudan and the cold shoulder the world showed that I had to take a break.

Whatever your "poison" is, it gets to be overwhelming if you think about it too much, that's for sure.

Now you know why I always seem pissed off lol. It is good to take a break every once in a while though, or it just gets too much.Ozfactor wrote:Thanks Snow Crash I'll do that. Checked out the trailer and looks to be well done.
