Thank God we are coming to a time when the world is becoming like a bar. If you shoot your mouth off or dump on the other guy, your gonna get punched, no matter how big a bully you are.
The west writes the rules, divides the land and resources and kills with impunity, and the Muslim world is challenging that "right".
How about all the Akha and others who got killed in the western drug war in Asia, should the west be let off the hook for that?
Why does the west always preach its gospel of non violence while raining death and destruction down on everyone else?????
Maybe the days of western arrogance and gluttony are coming to an end. http://www.akha.org The Akha Heritage Foundation
I give you a 4 to compensate. Other people have said similar things to what you say (let's say from the other "western" camp, if you would like to call it that way) that were not "warned" with a 2.
It is true that you could have said the same thing using another tone or narrative.. but we always do it sometimes and get a pass. I understand the 2 given but I do not share their opinion.
I want to point out that I do not have any idea of what the Akha Heritage foundation so it has no influence (positive or negative) on my judgement.
A pleasure I therefore claim to show, not how men think in myths, but how myths operate in men's minds without their being aware of the fact. Levi-Strauss, Claude
the bar you describe? Why should we want a world in which shooting off our mouthes (surely a subjective characterization) results in our getting punched?
