Galut Consciousness: The Origins of Totalitarian Democracy?

http://galutconsciousness.blogspot.com/2008/06/origins-of-totalitarian-democracy.html

Dispatches from New York City. Saturday, 14 June 2008. The Origins of Totalitarian Democracy? They forced Ireland to vote again, the bill finally passing in October 2002. Where does the EU go from here? Ah yes, "Ratifications should continue to take their course," stated Barroso. And what, in effect, does this mean? How many rejections is enough for the EU? Apparently not, even if it has come from four separate countries (France, Holland, Denmark, and - twice - Ireland). Two? With the French in it? He dr...

Galut Consciousness: The Shaming of Israel

http://galutconsciousness.blogspot.com/2008/07/shaming-of-israel.html

Dispatches from New York City. Wednesday, 16 July 2008. The Shaming of Israel. Kuntar never expressed any remorse for his crimes. He should have died in prison for his crimes. The idea of him living free and healthy in Lebanon - much less welcomed as a hero, a "resistance fighter returning from the prisons of the occupier", to quote Lebanese President Michel Suleiman (how long, one wonders, until Hezbollah and Syria conspire to have Suleiman murdered as they did Rafik Hariri? Till then, why bother?

Galut Consciousness: Walking in the Sun...

http://galutconsciousness.blogspot.com/2008/06/walking-in-sun.html

Dispatches from New York City. Friday, 6 June 2008. Walking in the Sun. I am a man living in fear: the weather forecast predicts that tomorrow will be a cloudy 96F. Cloudy = humid. 96F = atrociously hot. Will my English constitution survive? Tomorrow calls for the deployment of drastic, terrible measures: sandles or, as they prefer to call them over here 'flip-flops'. Truly, I have sunk as low as one can possibly go. Quote of the Day: "I'm melting, MELTING, oh what a world! Walking in the Sun.

Dispatches from New York City. Monday, 31 March 2008. The Round of Rain. In honour of the ceaseless rain into which I must soon venture, a little Dante:.

व्हिते गर्ल इन इंडिया: July 2008

http://caseyji.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html

व्हिते गर्ल इन इंडिया. Some shared words from my time in south asia. Thursday, July 3, 2008. So I'm finally leaving behind my happy, structured life in Jodhpur; my family, my home, my friends and my job; for a vagabond life riding the pace of India on her buses and trains. My adventures as a solo female traveller start here - two months of stability and confidence give way for for two months of being lost, foreign and footloose. And so the questions of itinerary arises! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

http://galutconsciousness.blogspot.com/2008/06/pulchritudo-et-salubritas.html

Dispatches from New York City. Sunday, 1 June 2008. I see that my hometown has been in the news today:. Http:/ news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/dorset/7430008.stm. I remember a time when my sister and I derisively nicknamed Bournemouth 'BOB' (Boring Old Bournemouth - we were about 12 at the time) - now its all corpses in suitcases, drug-dealing gangsters (sorry Mr Carr, "legitimate businessmen"), and dead students. Still, some things never change:. Http:/ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bournemouth School. Means nothin...
