Meditations
Perception by Horses and Small Children
Martin LeFevre: "I sit at a walk-in picnic site overlooking the swollen stream. A steady flow of people goes by on the pedestrian park road-runners, bikers, walkers, and the occasional rollerblader. Intensely observing the movement of thought/emotion with no more interference than the water rushing by, a deeply meditative state ensues.

RESISTANCE ... IS NOT FUTILE
Mohawk Nation News: "Resistance being futile is a lie. We must resist to survive....The European elite sent over invaders to abduct, assimilate or kill us to take our possessions, to enhance their lives. Disease had almost wiped them out. They roamed the earth as marauders, destroying entire societies to control and collect everything.

How the US Press Lost Its Way
Rich White Men, who held most of the levers of power, "They made adjustments, yes; they gave some ground. But many were determined to fight back and some had experience in defusing and dismantling social movements around the world. Indeed, the CIA's decades of political and media manipulation in the Third World and even Europe gave Nixon's allies a playbook for how to neutralize opponents and steer a population here at home...

US/Israeli Special Relationship
Stephen Lendman: "Strategic interests largely benefitting Israel, not shared values, are at issue. Washington doesn't provide the Jewish state more aid than all other nations combined because of historic binding ties....Both countries threaten world peace. United they endanger humanity...An alliance based on militarism, belligerence, racism, and human rights abuses is crucial to end, not support...

The Next Stage in Human Evolution, Part Two
Martin LeFevre: "Paleo-anthropologists are generally of the view, in the words of Ian Tattersall, that "there has never been a more fateful arrival on the biological scene than that of our extraordinary species." Old anthropocentrism dies hard.

Still Standing Amid the Wreckage
James Howard Kunstler: "The New Urbanists held their big annual meet-up for four days last week and I stomped a big carbon footprint flying down to West Palm Beach for the doings. I don't know who exactly picked West Palm, but it was at once peculiar, disheartening, instructive, and exhausting...a fire-eating reform movement dedicated to transforming the horrifying and toxic human habitat of America...

The Radical History of Mother's Day
Laura Kacere: Mother's Day began in America in 1870 when Julia Ward Howe wrote the Mother's Day Proclamation. Written in response to the American Civil War and the Franco-Prussian War, her proclamation called on women to use their position as mothers to influence society in fighting for an end to all wars. She called for women to stand up against the unjust violence of war through their roles as wife and mother, to protest the futility of their sons killing other mothers' sons.

Waging Total War on Islam
Stephen Lendman: "When asked why he robbed banks, Willie Sutton said that's where the money is. Washington targets the Middle East, North Africa and Central Asia because it's where most proved oil and gas reserves are....Waging war require enemies. Pretexts create them. Muslims are demonized as threats.

OCCUPY
May 12, 2012 - Occupy Denver Photos
Overcast skies, threat of rain, cooler temperatures brought a quiet and reserved day to the Saturday afternoon turnout for Occupy Denver protests on Broadway by Lincoln Park. Plus at the same time an all day statewide Peace Conference was going on at the First Unitarian Society of Denver Church at 14th and Lafayette. Also protests are continuing against the Downtown Denver Partnership Support for "Urban Camping" Ban...The photos are minimal so included some leftovers from previous days...

Commentary
Einstein's Prescience
William T. Hathaway: Albert Einstein wrote in 1939, "There could be no greater calamity than a permanent discord between us and the Arab people. Despite the great wrong that has been done us, we must strive for a just and lasting compromise with the Arab people.... Let us recall that in former times no people lived in greater friendship with us than the ancestors of these Arabs."

Men, Go First
Martin LeFevre: "Men go first, and if it works, women follow." A Russian woman told me that proverb in Moscow many years ago. It's interesting to see how women and men react to it these days. Most men scoff; most women get angry.

Commentary
The widening net of the surveillance state
The aim of these operations by the "Federal Bureau of Entrapment" isn't to protect us from any real threat, but to justify a wider crackdown on the right to protest....All our movements need to recognize the growing threat of state repression and mobilize in defense of its victims-because as the old labor movement slogan says, an injury to one is an injury to all.

Predatory Capitalism Failed
Stephen Lendman: "An ideology based on inequality, injustice, exploitation, militarism, and imperial wars eventually self-destructs or gets pushed....Growing evidence in America and Europe show systemic unaddressed problems too grave to ignore. They remain so despite millions without jobs, savings, homes or futures.

A Rebellious World or a New Dark Age?
Noam Chomsky: On the History of the US Economy in Decline "The Occupy movement has been an extremely exciting development. Unprecedented, in fact. There's never been anything like it that I can think of. If the bonds and associations it has established can be sustained through a long, dark period ahead - because victory won't come quickly - it could prove a significant moment in American history.
