None taken. It was lame, but when I wrote it I was looking desparately for
SOMETHING to make sense. Why that day? Why not wait until the upcoming
Jewish holidays (oh yeah, that means fewer Jews at work) or go for earlier
during the racism summit? I'm still trying to track down one last friend
who hasn't checked in. Dobbs willing, he's putting his medical skills to
work at one of the hospitals in Manhattan, where he's a radiologist.
Like I said, I was looking for some shred of order. Wound up doing fucking
numerology and looking like a damn idiot. These may not be the end times,
but they're really awful ones.

They're taught that if they die martyrs, they get special bonus prizes
in heaven.

1. They get to look directly on the face of Allah

2. They get 72 virgins to wait on them hand and foot through eternity

3. They get mandate power or whatever to allow up to 70 people into
heaven on their say-so.

And they believe this stuff. I didn't see anything about the dream
date with Leonardo Dicaprio in the list.

Just a few days ago, an Arab-American organization was
bitterly complaining to CBS news, because they had shown
a video interview with a man who later was a suicide
bomber. The had translated what he said into a "paradise
and 72 virgins" statement, when what he had really said
was that he was doing it to "protest the horrible things
the Israelis had done to his people."

They demanded a retraction. CBS refused.

Makes you wonder.

There's a lot of the racism card going on here.

Everybody wants to get angry and drink blood and frankly I'm not
against that. But when we start hitting the primeval nerves we start
hitting the xenophobe nerve.

My own paranoia hasn't really abated. I wish.

We'll never know for sure whether this was a hitler and the Reichstag
kind of thing.

Or maybe it's just Santa Claus, bringing Bush what he always wanted.

And here I was wondering if I was the only one paranoid enough to have
that thought.
