sunday 3/22/2009

Saw something in Raw Story that hurt: Irag deaths up/our pretense of caring down. Sometimes I feel crazy that absolutely everyone is not out protesting over this obscene military invasion and destruction of an indepentent country. We so owe them everything we have and I never her anyone saying this. If this country and Iraq were individuals we, the US, would be given at the very least life in prison and some would be very happy to hear that we were given the death penalty. What on earth was this for? No one will ever say. Was it just for Bush to have a reason for a war to show he was getting the "terrorists"? Was it to get the "embassy" built so that we will be able to fight China? I honestly don't understand but the entire thing is so close to the history of settling the west by destroying the people already there and enslaving and the amazing thing is the the "world" acts as if there was somehow a reason for what was done to the Iraqis. I have read some who think that the Iraqis deserve their fate because they allowed the dictator to control them-but then we did come to the defence of the British/French,etc. in WWII-the entire Iraq thing is just bizarre and so anti-life that I would expect more protest, greater outrage but nothing like that happens-if it is not on TV I guess it doesn't mean anything .
At 1:30pm just a few minutes ago my daughter advised me that Courtney is moving out and that she and Arvin are going to stay with Raphel. I said" no, Arvin stays with us and she responds " no Arvin wants to be with his mother!!" So I am checked and I imagine that explains why Arvin walked by a few minutes earlier and socked me in the back and startled me. I asked him why he did that and he said that he didn't know why. This all seems rather surrelistic-I didn't think that the argument we had was greater than any others but the outcome sure is. I think that this is because I called Courtney's mean bluff where she brings up Steve and how awful he is to live on me and cheat on me and this time I confronted her and asked her to tell me what she was talking about and of course she would not. So off they go and I am really frightened about Arvin not having food nor clothes nor a way to get to school. I am sick to think of Arvin subjected to the chaos of all of this, especially aimee's cruelty and laziness and semi-catonic spells. Maybe they will take Buffy too-she knows everything that is going on.
