Roger See this previous excerpt on you site: [...] This war will not be won on the ground. This war will be won when the enemy and its supporters realize this ideology of hate, repression of free will and thought is doomed to failure like its predecessors of Fascisim, Nazism, and Communism. [...] While we are crushing the enemy on the ground, the enemy is winning the propaganda war. To win this war we must "out" the lies that our enemy is using to subjugate the people by fear, repression and torture. We must flood all mediums of communication with the truth. We must nuture the people in forming their own independent forms of news of the day. [...] Read More It's not a secret aQ is using the Net for commnd and control purposes and other vile purposes. We can't allow that to happened and we must fight back and take conrol of Cyberspace. Call it the "high ground."

“I react to them they same way I would a child porn site.”

Terrye – Me too. It feels like coming face to face with evil. Maybe if I get up the nerve I’ll hold up a cross in front of my computer screen! I should have done that when I watched one of the beheading videos.

“I find it interesting that my Ernest Becker site is getting more attention here that the terrorist links”

Sorry Zed. I was the first poster so probably bear some responsibility. I was just so surprised to see the link. As I noted, I switched my major after reading The Denial of Death so it isn’t too farfetched to say that the guy changed my life!

I find it interesting that my Ernest Becker site is getting more attention here that the terrorist links.

So on that subject, I’m obvioulsy crazy about Becker.

I would agree that Denial of Death is a great introduction to Becker and would like to point out that Escape from Evil is an excellent clarification of Becker. If you really want to see a whole other side of him pick up Angel in Armor.

I don’t think I will give them the traffic, but I might check out Becker. creepy, I react to them they same way I would a child porn site.

And I have heard of the Pentagon’s new map.

I heard early this morning on Fox that the Bushies flat denied an article in WaPo concering the Pentagon’s role in intelligence gathering.

I wonder where the media gets some of this stuff.

Caroline’s Ernest Becker site has a link to a book I’ve been raving about called ‘The pentagon’s new Map’. Just go back and clik Lem.

What magical labyrinthine web we weave wanda? No wonder.

I heard about a sort of ‘mothers against terrorist’ – mom terror warriors that while we sleep they are awake visiting these sites and using available translation tech trying to infiltrate the true believers (if we are to be the infidels).

It turns out the moms provided critical testimony against some terror plotters. As Mel Allen used to say “How about that”

How about that? Indeed – you nay nattering nabobs of nihilism. Otherwise known as holier than thou Hollywood?

I tell you If I hear any one preaching to me on Oscar night about my vote back in November I will… I don’t know, keep rejecting their merchendise?

I watched one of the linked films -

Fairly amateur stuff. Basically just a montage of Al-Jazeera/Reuters photos that any of us could have made on Power Point set to prayer chants.

I went to the site but was afraid to check out any of the links right before bed. My insomnia is already severe enough. Of interest to me, however, was the fact that the main menu links to Ernest Becker. I read his book “The Denial of Death” when I was 19. It was the 1st psychology book I ever read and it’s impact on me was so great it prompted me to switch my major (I was in the foreign service school at the time) to psychology. In all my years of studying psych his name rarely ever came up. Judging from that link it looks like in the wake of 9/11, he is finally getting the attention he deserves.
