Bourne of War
by Wendy McElroy - 10/05/11
"Bourne's essays attack the sanctity of war by showing how it leads to the moral collapse
of society by destroying the peaceful interactions and principles on which society rests." |

". . . I want to be around to see what happens when Americans repudiate what TV and a controlled press have obliged
viewers to believe happened on September 11, 2001. . ."
"There is a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart, that you can't take part; you can't even passively take part, and you've got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and you've got to make it stop. And you've got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it, that unless you're free, the machine will be prevented from working at all!" -- Mario Savio 1964
Mario Savio was a UC-Berkeley philosophy student whose voice and actions energized the Free Speech Movement that kicked off a generation of youth protest and activism. In today's critical time, every one of us must become a Mario Savio. -- YOU CAN'T CLEAN A HOUSE FROM THE OUTSIDE.
"Cowardice asks the question, 'Is it safe?' Expediency asks the question, 'Is it politic?' Vanity asks the question, 'Is it popular? But, conscience asks the question, 'Is it right?' And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular but one must take it because one's conscience tells one that it is right." - Martin Luther King, Jr. |
THE AIMS OF OUR REVOLUTION
The entire world is watching, praying, and hoping that Americans WAKE UP.
Our nation, mankind's great opportunity for managing self-government, is
in jeopardy. We must not permit Mr. Jefferson's "great experiment" to fail.
Let us again struggle together to structure a more just, more humane, and a
stronger Republic for ourselves and future generations.

| Where is Elie's Tattoo?
Elie Wiesel has told us for over 50 years that he was tattooed at Auschwitz in 1944, and that his tattoo number is A7713.
He has repeatedly said that he still has this original tattoo on his arm. In March 2010 in Dayton, Ohio, Elie met with the press, high
school and college students, and 2300 members of the local community. As reported in the Dayton Daily News , one student
asked Wiesel if he still has his concentration camp number and if it serves as a reminder of those terrible experiences. "I
don’t need that to remember, I think about my past every day," he responded. "But I still have it on my arm – A7713. At that
time, we were numbers. No names, no identity."
