I’m From Abu Gharaib and I’m Your Neighbour

I’m From Abu Gharaib and I’m Your Neighbour

From Larry Wohlgemuth… It’s bound to happen. Eventually someone who served in Iraq or Afghanistan will move into your neighborhood, maybe even next door, and you’re going to wonder. You’ll wonder whether your children are safe, and what’s going to happen to your property values. But you’re going to wonder. It was never part of [...]

The Brady Report – False Argumentation

The Brady Report – False Argumentation

While the so-called “9/11 mosque”, which is actually instead an Islamic community center, has merits on both sides of the conversation regarding its existence, the conversation should not even be occurring, let alone at the level or with the furor that it currently holds. The simple answer to the situation is Freedom of Religion, via [...]

“ Mr. Speaker, we are now in chapter 11. Members of Congress are officially presiding over the greatest reorganization of any bankrupt entity in history”… Congressman James Traficant March 17th 1993 I’m afraid that those words uttered by congressman James Traficant, back in 1993 were true. In fact this was not the first time that [...]

The Ku Joni Syndrome

The Ku Joni Syndrome

From Tanzania Corespondent Lute Wa Lutengano… I have failed not to write something about football. After all, all talk now is about the ‘beautiful game’ taking place in ‘Ku-Joni’ as my tribal ancestors used to call what is now the land of Madiba a.k.a. Mandela – South Africa. You see where I come from in [...]

On The Wings Of Yesterday

On The Wings Of Yesterday

From David Anthony Hohol… The summer, for most of my life, has always meant time on the family farm. Sitting in the same house where my father was raised, the same house in which my grandfather was born, and the same house my great grandfather built with his own hands with timber from the trees [...]

72 Virgins… Really?

72 Virgins… Really?

From Larry Wohlgemuth… 72 virgins is the going Islamic rate to get a man to drive a car filled with explosives into a group of Americans. It must be true, it has to be true, because that’s what our leaders have told us. They want us to believe it’s about the deviant sexual desire of [...]

Picturing RELATIVITY- see all photos

RELATIVELY Speaking

  • ANNOYING SAUDI A prominent Saudi human rights activist detained for more than a month is being investigated for allegedly “annoying others” with his online essays that criticise government officials and Saudi religious scholars. God Bless Saudi Arabia.
  • CHINA BANS SOLDIERS FROM BLOGGING OF ANY KIND A new regulation prohibits the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) from creating websites or blogs, citing confidentiality concerns. God Bless the Chinese Control Freaks and their ever-loving paranoia.
  • GRAB YOUR BONG While California confirmed its state’s marijuana legalization initiative would be on the November ballot months ago, the state has now assigned proposition numbers to this year’s slate of initiatives. Get used to hearing about Proposition 19.
  • THE WHITE MIDDLE CLASS DONT HAVE SEX A sexual malaise appears to have sunk over American White People. But to what extent do these complaints about sexual apathy reflect medical reality, and how much do they emanate from the anxious, overachieving, white upper middle class? Say What?
  • YOU'RE NOT JEWISH?! A Jerusalem court made legal history by jailing a delivery man from East Jerusalem. A Palestinian, the man was convicted of rape after having consensual sex with an Israeli woman who believed he was Jewish because he said his name was Daniel.
