Well, Apartheid is somewhat over only to have a re-birth with a new twist
here in the United States, with the help of George Bush who should win an
award for his uncanny ability to forever use 9/11 as a passport to unleash
his masterplan upon the World, and Ariel Sharon who has already been
practicing his own brand of apartheid on the Palestinians long before 9/11.
Together, these two will turn the whole World into a concentration camp for
the poor and the helpless, decidng the fate of everybody, from sovereign
states to the average man and woman in the farthese corner of the World,
deciding which leaders people in their own countries should have, and which
ones to get rid of. What a World!
While a good portion of the people in the World devote valuable time to
insignificant things, everything is in chaos; as others are busy mapping out
our fate every waking moment. Helas!
