The weakness of the Green Party in the US is a testimony to the anti-intellectualization within its educational system and the regression in its democracy and founding values.

A society that criticizes the harm inflicted on children after divorce, while insisting on the inappropriateness of friendship between ex’s is a society that devours its children.

What should you tell your child if he/she asks: “who created God?”

I would say: “What do you think?”

120,000 Egyptian peasants died during the digging of Suez canal. They were forced to work. All that for 15% of the net profit afterwards to Egypt granted by France.

The Suez Canal is Egypt’s modern Pyramids. It is a symbol of oppression and slavery.
