From Counterpunch: Israeli leaders rain dehumanizing racist rhetoric and lethal ordnance upon Palestinians. Still, they are not held responsible for their actions because doing so would lead to accusations of antisemitism, just as criticizing Trump and his cult for their racism and sexism is cynically framed as anti-white misandry.

From George Galloway: If you live in London, you were almost killed in September 2024.

From Network23: I believe the children are our future: teach them well and let them lead the way. Show them all the beauty they possess inside, give them a sense of pride to make it easier, let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be. Everybody's searching for a hero, people need someone to look up to. I never found anyone to fulfil my needs, a lonely place to be and so I learned to depend on me. I decided long ago never to walk in anyone's shadows. If I fail, if I succeed, at least I'll live as I believe. No matter what they take from me they can't take away my dignity. Because the greatest love of all is happening to me; I found the greatest love of all inside of me. The greatest love of all is easy to achieve. Learning to love yourself - it is the greatest love of all.

Letting people, society, the world, near and far, friend and foe, slowly but surely dominate and control my musical choices out of their pride, shame, self-worship and self-loathing and inability to not interfere in the soul of another, led me to eventually forget that song performed so well by Benson/Houston.

And if by chance that special place that you've been dreaming of leads you to a lonely place, find your strength in love.

For the vision I have had is sweeping.
