My granddaughter, Sugar, is in the 5th grade at Big Brother Elementary. The other day she brought home an assignment from her teacher, Ms. White. She was asked to write about what her family members thought, remembered, or knew of the events of 9/11. I said, "Sure, Sugar, let me grab my calculator" and then I divided 9 by 11. When I showed the number 0.818181 on the display, I told her "this is the percentage of probability that Saddam Hussein possessed WMD while the neocons pushed a born-again Christian to invade--"

By this time, Sugar was running downstairs, crying "Dad, dad, Grandpa is doing it again." It didn't take long before my American son-in-law, Hunk, and my daughter came up to my room with a brochure, saying "Dad, I think it's best if you move to a home." 

As they were leaving, I saw tears in my daughter's eyes. Hunk would have assumed these tears were for the victims of 9/11, but I knew that she was crying for the victim at hand....

Remembering the victim of 9/11...

by Bavafa on

Yet actively turning a blind eye to the victim of Iraq war, which are multiple fold is to betray yourself, to betray humanity and to betray justice.

'Hambastegi' is the main key to victory

Big Sista here was watching carefully; 'rescrutinized CCTV footage: it was Sugar who had dared to shed a knowing tear. 

It might have been a tear of fear though: why do they show their gnawing dentures in those brochures?
