"It was Netanyahu's victory celebration over the upstart American President who had dared to challenge Israel's power not only in the Middle East but in America itself. And while the world this week listened to Netanyahu in the Holocaust memorial commemoration for the genocide of six million Jews, abusing Iran as the new Nazi Germany – Iran's loony president supposedly as evil as Hitler – the hopes of a future "Palestine" continued to dribble away. President Ahmadinejad of Iran is no more Adolf Hitler than the Israelis are Nazis. But the "threat" of Iran is distracting the world. So is Tony Blair yesterday, trying to wriggle out of his bloody responsibility for the Iraq disaster. The real catastrophe, however, continues just outside Jerusalem, amid the fields, stony hills and ancient caves of most of the West Bank."
I have something sad to report also from Chilpancingo.
This morning I heard at XEUAG 840 kHz from the Autonomous University of Guerrero, that las night a gang of thugs went to the weak wooden house of a single mother, and destroyed it. There were at least two city government officials with the rascals. At that time there were two kids in the wooden house, both underage, while their mother was selling coffee in another part of town. All this happened around 11:00 pm. The neighbors intervened to no avail. You know, these working Mexican mothers in Mexico were in their country, but they are poor. They are illegally living there, because this is no man's land inside the city. They tell the poor residents that it belongs to some Juan person, or maybe they are under the jurisdiction of the city, or maybe the federal government. The truth of the matter is: they are squatting in their own country. All of these people have the same religion, the same birth certificates; but some are poor.
