Berlin, eh? Ironic.

Taken from Ynet News:
However, more than 1,000 Lebanese and Palestinians staged an anti-Israeli protest at Berlin's Brandenburg Gate on Monday, police said. A Reuters witness said demonstrators were chanting "death to Israel" and "death to Zionists", while some carried placards bearing the image of Hizbullah leader Hassan Nasrallah. Police said around 1,200 people took part in the protest at the German capital's famous landmark, not far from a major memorial to the millions of Jews killed in the Holocaust.

Talk about an overwhelming sense of déjà vu

OK, that's downright mean! Especially because it cuts so very close to the bone. Problem is, those weren't Aryans at the Gate.

Kateland, did you read this?

Very edifying.

I hadn't read it but I did now. But I would say that we are in the midst of a very old war. Its Vienna, and the barbarians are at the gates - all over again. Only this time, how shall we carry the day? Not only are we divided as people but our bastard child philosphies are used against us to divide us further.

Darling Kateland,

Take a deep breath.

And yes, you are right. It is the latest phase of a long war.

What makes the length of this war unbearable is our own refusal to end it.

Amicalement.
