It is virtually not assimilable to our reason that a small lonely man felled a giant in the midst of his limousines, his legions, his throng and his security. If such a nonentity destroyed the leader of the most powerful nation on earth, then a world of disproportion engulfs us, and we live in a universe that is absurd.

إن الدولة التي تعتمد على القوة وحدها سرعان ما يتقوض بناؤها، لأن الناس وإن يكونوا بطبعهم أغراراً، فهم كذلك بطلعهم ذوو عناد، والقوة مثل الضرائب تبلغ أكثر نجاح لها إذا ماكانت خفية غير مباشرة، ومن هنا لجأت الدولة - لكي تبقى على نفسها - إلى أدوات كثيرة تستخدمها وتصطنعها في بث تعاليمها - كالأسرة والكنيسة والمدرسة - حتى تبعث في نفس المواطن عادة الولاء للوطن والفخر به.

ولقد أغناها هذا التنشيئ عن مئات من رجال الشرطة، وهيأ الرأي العام للتماسك في طاعة وانصياع، فمثل هذا التماسك لابد منه في حالة الحرب، وفوق هذا كله فإن الأقلية الحاكمة حاولت أن تحول سيادتها التي فرضتها على الناس فرضاً بقوتها إلى مجموعة من القوانين من شأنها أن تُبَلور سلطانها من جهة، وأن تقدم للناس ما يرحبون به من أمن ونظام من جهة أخرى وهي تعترف بحقوق ((الرعية)) اعترافاً تستميلها به إلى قبول القانون ومناصرة الدولة.

Remembering the life of Robert F. Kennedy
45 years after his life was tragically taken by a senseless act of violence.
His final campaign of peace and justice (that sadly last only 85 days) still echoes true near a half a century later. His words will speak truth to the end of time: Humanity must strive to chose peace over war, love over hated, nonviolence over discord and violence. We must continue caring for those in need. Remembering that in spirit we are one. When we use our energy to destroy others...in the end we destroy ourselves and a piece of humanity in the process.

Los emperadores romanos demostraron fehacientemente que cuanto más débil y corrompido es un poder tanto más exagera la centralización del mismo

You know what's amusing?
How people in this so-called American Liberty Movement constantly forward ideas as if nobody had ever thought of them before.
If any of these fucktards had ever read Pliny, Cicero, Plutarch or Suetonius, they would know that nearly all political ideas were old news by the time of the Emperor Caligula.
The American educational system is officially shit as far as I can tell.

Can't you see,Jimmy?It's not a war about our freedom,it's a power struggle between rulers and bosses wanting more land,more power.The likes of you and me are just cannon fodder in their draft war.We should have nothing to do with it,let alone be supporting it! The only fight that concerns the working man is the one the trades unions are fighting against the bosses.That's the only struggle I'm bothered about and I don't give a toss if they're British bosses or German!
