I've decided to speak up. I've decided to lash out.
Last night I attended a meeting of a group I used to belong to in Israel called Peace Now. Peace Now is a coalition of Palestinian and Israeli political and social groups who are working together to find a peaceful settlement to the conflict in the the middle east.
So everyone in the room was either 75 years old or a friggin' hippie with no spine. I am so upset at the dovish parties for losing their voice in Israel and in the states. In times of war and amidst all the violence it is obvious that the public swings right. People become reactionary and act out of anger and dissolution. People lose sight of the path out of the cycle of violence. I refuse to fall into that trap.
People ask questions like 'How can you make peace with a terrorist?' First off, you make peace with your enemies, not with your friends. Secondly, you make peace with the Palestinian people and the Israeli people. Not with Arafat and Sharon. They are but mouthpieces for their people. And they both suck at it. Big time.
Last night I got home and started making a few stencils. I am going to bomb the hell out of Los Angeles. I am going to put peace doves everywhere. I am going to put an Israeli flag and a Palestinian flag side by side everywhere... fuck it- I am over all of this. I've had enough. I'll post some pics.
*frustrated*

That'll be interesting see that all over LA. It's great you view things that way. There should be peace amongst them.
