fear?

Post #176,289 by andread 9/24/04 6:19:05 PM Reply	fear? Yusuf Islam made his choices let him live with them If I heard him say he was wrong about Rushdie (a real person who lived in real fear for many years because he wrote a book and the Islamic fundamentalists lied about its content and then ordered him killed to support their lies) and releated issues then I might say it was wrong to keep him out of the country It seems like many are saying 'oh they won't let the guy who wrote Peace Train in ha ha' Yusuf Islam denounced his former career, rejected his music and then in a moment of self-serving hypocrisy re-records Peace Train to aid the Islamic cause I'm not for the war in Iraq or the so-called war on terror I'm pro-Rushdie and anti- Yusuf Islam A Play I Some Music w/ Papa Andy Saturday 8 PM - 11 PM ET All Night Rewind 11 PM - 5 PM Reggae, African and Caribbean Music [link\|http://wxxe.org\|Tune In]

Every dead Iraqi and his family and their clan (and anyone else who likes to retell, nay - needs to retell.. the tale about a dismembered mother+son etc.) - each one of these sees Our actions Quite Personally. And they were Terrified. We terrorize, and have in some small way, somewhere.. in the banana republics -- from since we purchased the first boatlod of SLAVES. Giant Monopolists continue to use leverage against the governments! of less $-powerful nations. People are killed in this $-battle. It's still the same process. But oblique, yes. I'll go with your side on the Rushdie issue, however. Lots of plastic 'celebrities' mouth off almost as stupidly as Professionally-bought congresscritters - they are Bad, but no worse than other well subsidized liars. He wrote some catchy tunes. He flunked Human BS 101A. And he made the wrong call re stupid fucking fatwahs; those don't come from Gawd; they come from wackos.

How do you identify it? Remember, I'm a non-religious guy, so you'll have to spell it out for me. ----------------------------------------- It is much harder to be a liberal than a conservative. Why? Because it is easier to give someone the finger than it is to give them a helping hand. Mike Royko
