BONO IS THE COURT JESTER

category dublin | anti-capitalism | opinion/analysis author Friday June 17, 2005 12:35author by Tom Paine - PRO This and That.author email tompainee at yahoo dot co dot uk Report this post to the editors

Enter the clown

Bonoff is the head of the distraction squad and is doing more harm than good.
FRONT  MEN
FRONT MEN

BONO IS A COURT JESTER

HE SHOULD STICK WITH HIS BELLED HAT

U2 made some great music but Bono is a naive political clown.

America is a Robber Empire that exists by the threat and use of force (Iraq).

It is run by and for the corporations.

For example, Houghton of Exxon/Mobile decides its emissions policy and boycott of Kyoto.

There is no such thing as “ Stupid Poverty”

Poverty is caused and inflicted by the grabalot corporations and other interest groups who have set up the exploitative fronts such as the IMF,WTO and World bank.

It is caused by our European Farm Subsidies (with exports) and our Trade Blocks against less developed countries.

And is perpetrated and extended by clowns like Bonhoff providing cover

Bonoff hangs around with the causers and is told to look for America’s “Greatness”.

America has no “Greatness” now.

Our ancestors, who went to America, destroyed everything they met.
Humans. Wildlife and Culture.

Bonoff met and spoke to the front-men….. The Burning Bush( Very Nice), Goebbles Murdock( Very Helpful), Jessy James Helms(Very Tearful), Pat (I Am Sorry) Robertson and Billy (Bullshit) Graham.

Goebbles Murdoch knew he was talking to a GobShite and blinded him with bullshit about helping when he was making progress.

Progress will be seen only when the IMF,WTO and World Bank are dragged into court on conspiracy and human right charges.

Until then the best we can do is to try and help the Africans ourselves.

How about, for a start, twinning each town in Britian with a squatter camp in South Africa for which it will be responsible and send regular aids medicine, food and clothes for the kids?

Anyone listening?
