Anger is a legitimate emotion in the face of injustice. Passive acceptance of evil is not a virtue.

Hairy the humanitarian!?
Marx said history repeats itself, first as tragedy & then as farce. It cannot be demonstrated enough that modern times has made it so the two cannot be distinguished. Hairy Windsor, the punk of Buckingham, just received a Distinguished Humanitarian Leadership award at a black tie event in Washington, DC--for his work with veterans, no less. The guy spent an hour in Afghanistan posing in a fox hole & the media hailed him as a war hero. That’s the farcical part. The other side is the news in England this week that 500,000 injured military veterans will be stripped of disability benefits over the next four years in the government austerity budget. The phony-assed award was given by the Atlantic Council, a so-called think tank with war criminal, Henry Kissinger on its board of directors. War criminal, Colin Powell presented the award which was previously given to war criminal, Bill Clinton, & the hapless sycophant, Bono. Other council members include war criminals Susan Rice & Richard Holbrooke (thankfully deceased). Too bad Adolf Hitler isn’t alive so they could give him an award too.
