I'm so tired of the hate in the world. Bombings in London killed 37 people so far this morning when the European al-Quida whatever blew up 3 subway stations and a bus. I'd bet my life that they didn't do it because they're jelous that London won the Olympics spot for 2012 (something the article I read mentioned the attacks have coincided with). This is such a horrible thing that is done because of pure hate. But I don't think that it's the same kind of hate that our president is going to try and tell us it is. They don't hate all of us for being free or have America for having democracy. They hate our governments because they are arrogant, concieded and are a threat for domination. I don't want to belittle horrible travesties like this or 911, but what do people expect to happen when we try to police the world. There is always going to rebellion under any kind of ruler. That is what we think we are right now, along with Britain as our trusty sidekick. But to the rest of the world, we are a currupt cop with a stick up our ass. That's why it's so important to know where to draw the line between people desperately needing help and the Western world just acting in it's own self-interest. A guy on The Daily Show the other day wrote a book about Iran, and how he can prove that they had a hand in 911 and that that is probably where Osama Bin Laden is hiding. Who knows, he may be full of shit, but it's scary how much stuff in the world we just don't know about. This is all babbling, and I really don't know anything about the world or our current situation in the Middle East, so I should just shut up. But things like this go so far, and that's the point I guess. To scare us all shitless. Unfortunetely, our government has just been using that fear to win elections and start wars over oil. All I know for sure is that now my dad has to work 12 hour days with no days off because they might be coming after the Minneapolis light rail next. Not that I am in anyway comparing that to losing someone in an attack, but I don't feel real emotion from that, but I do feel emotion from having to watch my mom want to cry because they were supposed to go out to the theater tonight which is something they never do. Anyway, whatever the hell I was trying to say, I'm done saying it.
