Talking to Syria, the dilemma of this American administration

This American administration is unbelievably undecided and hard-headed in terms of setting up diplomatic relations with its "arch enemies". It seems that the conservatives have vowed not to condecsend and start even a simple conversation with the Syrians. The majority of Republicans are sticking to their uncondecsending position on Syria and Iran, and they are trying to fight their best to convince the American public of the evilness of the Syrians. Well, bad luck for them!! At present, they are gradually losing the battle, and more Democrats, and even some Replublicans, are convinced that they have got to talk to the Syrians as a very possible starting step towards easing the burden on the Americans in Iraq.

Just this morning on CNN, senator Joe Lieberman has made the exact same mistake this American administration has been so keen on committing. According to Lieberman, America is in war with the "Islamic terroists" who attacked the U.S., despite Wolf Blitzer's assertion to him that the Syrians and the Iraqis "had nothing to do with 9/11." This is the absolute ignorance that this part of the American politics is totally immersed in to the extent that they cannot blow up this huge bubble of ignorance, and instead familiriaze themselves with what the Middle East politics looks like.

Back to talking with Syria. It looks like the American administration is not going to take on a new track and believe that the Syrians could do something. In fact, the Syrians can do lots of things, it is just that this whole embargo idea against the Syrians is, if i may say, politically incorrect, and does not contribute to a further peaceful solution to the enormous mess the Americans have made in the region.

What's up with blogging?

Here is a fairly new pheonomonon, it's called blogging. Well, this is nothing new for all the bloggers on the net who are markedly and enormously increasing in numbers and improving in quality. Nevertheless, what's the secret of blogging that is attracting all people who have access to the net to have a blog? Probably it is this new total freedom of expressing one's opinion on the net without even having to disclose the personality or the character behind these posts. This is something very valuable for those who are not often given the stage to express their minds and thoughts freely in public, not to mention even on the net.

Probably it is becoming like the white pages of a notebook in which one can go wild without having to worry about the criticism of anyone, because in this case one has the total choice to edit anything one wants and would like to. This is not being afraid of being criticized, it is just all about the absolute freedom that any blogger enjoys while blogging. It could be compared to a little boy scratching what his imagination is dictating him on a paper or even on a wall or table or any crazy place , no matter what the consequences are as long as he is satisfied with the results.

This is all about blogging that I can see right now. I am also still an infant inthis field, and i am trying to crawl and set my imagination free to whatever subject I might think about.

Here is the hilariously-sarcastic Eddie Izzard on being bilingual. Being bilingual might not be a blessing sometimes, or is it??

The Luxurious super-rich people of the Middle East

luxury in this mini-documentary (or whatever you might wanna call it) is unfathomable and sometimes unimaginable compared to the extremely poor people in the Middle East. Life is really so ironic and often times so unbelievable when one puts some thought into it. Well, what the heck! billions of dollars are being "wasted" and nobody really cares.

Anyways, why bother?? just watch it damn it :)

Peace train,, take me home again.. yes again!!

Finally, almost one month and I will be home. Can't believe that two years have just flashed like a superfast light carried with the odor of sweet memories that will be engraved and remembered for the rest of my life. Finally, i will be able to smell the lovely dust of home, live the supernatural spirituality, run away from this meaningless materialism of life in this country that almost was gonna deteriorate my soul and make me forget my essence as someone who has come from the heart of the world civilization.

Yes i am not home yet, but i can feel it every single day in my dreams, in my day dreams, in my thoughts, in my longings to meet the loved ones, in my tender shift towards the coming unknown phase of my life, and probably in my almost absolutely unknown future career. Well, who gives a damn! For the time being, everything that matters is home, everything that is dear is related to home, despite all the negativities surrounding home..

Yes, home is my attempt to free my mind and my soul from the shackles of materialism and from the ropes that tied my body under the mere avariciousness of every day life in this shackled and roped country.

Come on peace train, please take me home again, at least for a while, at least for some kind of refreshment of the soul. Come on peace train, blow some refreshing air deep into my spirit and let me breathe for a while the fragrance of my beloved city, and the emotional togetherness after having lived under the unfair individualism for two freaking years..

come on peace train, take me home again...yes again
