The Dubya Trick?

I do not believe in God, nor the Devil. I believe though that it is totally acceptable that there maybe a higher "power", whatever that may be. Therefore I truly believe that if I were to believe in God or the Devil, that George W. Bush is the Devil, or at least his number 1 assistent.

How on Earth can someone pray to God, and at the same time "solve" "his" "problems" by destroying them. How is it possible to claim God just for America? Is it possible to count the amount of dead that Dubya and his friends are responsible for? Is there a word for the misery they have put the whole world in? Where is the love for God's creation? Where is the respect for God's creation?

In this "Two-faced-West" we see the image of civilication, the creation of an image, and what the modern world really is (about). It is the image of a smiling "suit and tie" and the profound horror of it's actions. All the pictures of statesmen, mimicking the widespread pictures of the selfproclaimed ceasaresque George W. Bush, are only one-layered, marketing induced image-makers. They do the walk, they do the talk, and the masses obey.

Why do they obey?

Sometime, long ago, someone had the idea of owning something that was his. Because he owned it, he became afraid to loose it. When your belongings are small, it is relatively easy to hold them, to protect them. But when your belongings become large(r), it becomes harder to protect it. "Protect your wealth" and be happy. So to be happy, we are adviced to see the enemy, before it's too late. Who is to be trusted, who is our enemy? We become afraid of one another, and instead of helping eachother to make a better world for us all, we sit still in our houses, we sit still on our cauches, ready to protect what we have. Afraid of what may come.

But, we also need "love", we also need kisses, we also need hugs. We start building a pattern of surrogate-love, giving ourselves surrogate-kisses by buying ourselves treats. Buy:happy, buy:happy, buy:happy. More treats, more, more, more. And so we became consumers. Consumers with even more to protect. "Get away from my surrogate kisses". Or even "Look, my surrogate-kiss is bigger than yours, yes, it even cost more". We need to protect our consumerist-way-of-live. "Don't you dare to take it away from me, it's mine, mine, mine".

We are what we consume. We are the mere image of our consumerism. We have chosen to become consumerists.

Why did we become consumerists?

Because we (thought we) had no choice. We simple became consumerists, because we didn't pay attention when it was growing on us. We took what they gave us, we became what they gave us. We became what they didn't give us. Loveless consumerists. Loveless-consumerist-owners. Afraid-loveless-consumerist-owners.

Wading in our image of wealth we were ready for the last step. Decadency. Thoughtless consumerism, added with endless supply of surrogate-kisses. "We need to protect it from those who want to steal it from us". Our own greed created our own enemies: we stick our images of fear on the ones we do not know, the ones who (seemingly) do not live like us (don't they eat, piss, breathe like us?), the ones we do not understand, the ones we are afraid of to understand. So, there we have our enemy: the ones who do things differently. The ones who live differently.

They are to blame. For what? You name it, we'll consume it.

Ceasar did it, Hitler did it. And guess who also learned the trick?
