It seems to me that everyone in the West is either worried or apathetic about stopping global terrorism, whilst the majority are quite happy to support those, albeit passively, who perpetuate the greatest terrorist activities on the planet, i.e. the US and her 'coalition of the willing' led by multinational corporations. It's more than ironic that the US, who are biggest supporters on state-sanctioned, and otherwise, terrorism in history, can lead a 'war against terrorism'. As those who have sworn to be people of the truth, let's keep declaring the truth about these things. Unfortunately, our media, the main source of our news, is either not free or afraid to tell us the truth about these things. Fortunately, God gave the web (and brains!)

so that we can more easily access the many other smaller voices out there who dare to speak the truth in love! I have long been an avid reader of, and listener to, Noam Chomsky, a professor in the Department of Linguistics and Philosophy at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. I believe that he is a voice of reason in a mad world. May I commend his writings to you, most of which are interviews. I picked up his latest offering at Dymocks for about $30 - a book called Power and Terror which came with a (poorly produced) DVD of some of the interviews and speeches he gave. You might not agree with everything, or even anything , he has to say, but we are foolish if we ignore his voice. Some of his stuff can also be accessed via the web.
