I came to think of a satiric...Interesting reading.<br /><br />I came to think of a satirical cartoon I saw the early eighties.<br /><br />The caption said "A spokesman for the Chilean junta has stated, that the country in recent years has made great progress towards the rights for dissenting voices to be heard."<br /><br />The cartoon depicted a jail cell, with a very meager man in a striped prisoner suit. <br /><br />The only light in the cell appears to come from the open door. In the doorway, a big guy with a broad and friendly smile, in a military uniform, is standing in the doorway. <br />He hands the prisoner a pencil and says "You are now absolutely free to write whatever you want on the cell walls!"<br /><br />In our democracies we have replaced the cell walls with other procedures. <br />They are nicer, but the effect is the same.<br /><br />It is, in essence, not the rules, laws or procedures. It is not about corroboration or SCCRC.<br />It is the people allowed into the top of the system.<br />And no rules accepted by the system itself will ever cause its downfall.<br /><br />Year after year. <br />270 people murdered, decisive evidence of foul play, involving courts and police.<br /><br />Your judicial system is as corrupt as they come. <br />The Lockerbie case has shown it to anyone who bothers, but the cell walls to be written on remains.<br /><br />The man in the cell knows that he may not get justice himself.<br />But he knows that his sacrifice will be a little part of what one day must change matters.<br /><br />Praise him for his fight.<br />SMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13272238187226269250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1073021351804532798.post-77478373121646393912014-03-03T21:40:22.585+00:002014-03-03T21:40:22.585+00:00October Surprise - Operation Ringwind - Lockerbie ...October Surprise - Operation Ringwind - Lockerbie bombing http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6nLPZA8DAbcDavid Howardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14856149779154737946noreply@blogger.com
