Yesterday's 9/11 Celebrations were Kabuki Theater

[Taverner]

And yes, I do call them celebrations. They were celebrations of American narcissism, celebrations of jingoistic hoo-rah, celebrations of death and killing and lest us not forget, celebrations of American unilateralism.

If you have never been outside the US, you probably haven't got a clue what I'm talking about. But there is another world out there, a world that doesn't think it's nation is the GREATEST PLACE ON EARTH! HOO RAH! Another world where something akin to 9/11 happens all the time, sometimes brought on by our military, sometimes simply brought on by our policies. Our corporations that bought out water sources, and jacked up the prices so no one can afford it. Our globalism that asserts that only Monsanto seed can be used. These policies kill, and they kill the most vulnerable humans on this planet.

It's about time we stopped feeling sorry for ourselves every year around this time, and started becoming the "good guys" we like to think we are in our deluded minds.

That is all.

1. We don't celebrate Pearl Harbor or the 1812 British Invasion.

We didn't have the M$M in place to brainwash us with jingoism 24/7.

2. We don't celebrate the McVeigh Bombing either

3. Nope.

Like you said 9/11 is total Kabuki theater, otherwise we would 'celebrate' those other days imo as well.

4. I watched the coverage on the Chinese channel.

It was covering commemorations in other countries.

I find the Chinese news channel to be most interesting. www.cctv.com

5. Hmmm - that would be interesting

Despite what the officialdom of 9/11 thought, pretty much ALL of the world was sympathetic of us that day
