How are things going out there?
There was a very interesting report that downplays everything the Republican Regime has been explaining to Americans lately. Apparently Iraq has made the world more dangerous, not less. Hmm. And Bush is meeting with Afghan president Harmid Karzai today, to discuss the situation in that country, which is also fighting off a resurgence of violence. Clearly the military, which had to endure all those horrible years without any war, and face off critics who said it took up too much American tax dollars has overexerted itself. And the world shall suffer for it for years to come. How tragic.
In happier news, I would like to mention something that I covered for the newpaper. Over the weekend of September 16th about 3000 youth from all around the world gathered in Denver to discuss a Global Call to Action. It was for an organization called Peace Jam, led by none other than the top Nobel Peace Prize Laureates from all around. It covered such critical topics as Women's Rights, the Enviroment, and the growing disparity between rich and poor. Not the rich and poor of America, both of whom live better off than the poor of many other countries. Even a ghetto is better than a slum. So at least there are some people dedicated to peace and doing something to reach it.

Lobolius, The Roman Wolf

- Long ago a wolf did howl in the day, as a river flowed and the ocean called. But the wolf lay down by another shore, and then became a tree.
