Yes why? What for? What does it say about you? What does it say about your countries? What does it say about your institutions? What does it say about your governments, your "culture", your "civilization", your history, your "progress", your "values", your concepts...? Have you ever stopped and pondered these questions? Have you ever stopped and asked yourselves ; how come? How come we are so advanced, how come we are so democratic, how come we are so great, how come we are so free...And how come we allow so much murder, oppression, abuse, go unaccounted for ? Have you ever asked yourself this question ? I was just listening to the BBC World radio. A report from Oxfam - and in your eyes that makes it credible - over 70 % of us Iraqis, no longer have access to clean drinking water. I say no longer have because I remember not so long ago, one could turn on the tap and drink. As simple as that. The report goes on to say that over 50% of Iraqis are u

Norm, normality, "normalization" as in politics...all anti-vital poisoned honey.
Trust me rather to die of cold a lonely bird in the wide empty winter skies than renounce my "wings" for the blissful tepidity of an earth worm's vegetative life.
I'm completely normal. I've learned a long time ago to go my own way. I march to the drums in my head and sing to the tunes in my heart.
I was listening to Omar Bashir's Al Andalus, when I went to your uncensored blog... I just love the sound of the Oud and the music of Iraq, but the "flamenco Arabe" that O.B. plays is also very enjoyable.
By the way, I have a sticker on my car (a 1989 vintage ) that says "Who are you to say what's normal?"
Coincidences, as I said.
Interesting post.
There is a quote
*Normal is the pathology of the average*
I am not normal either !
Lots of love
Salaam dear
Coincidencies...

"im completely normal"
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
So, have you been able to strike the blance btween playing along and being yourself in your "real" life?
Also I dont want to meddle in your afffairs, but have you ever considered writing professionally?
I think that you would make a difference. There is a red tape that goes all the way through your social, political and subjective writings,which is connected to the core of the real problems our culture and civisation are facing.
Some very astute, intelligent, well written comments here...
A breath of fresh air in a stale blogosphere...
Thank you.
Writing professionally takes energy, time and money...
I am not sure, yet another book will make a difference.
I 've read tons of books, by tons of authors...Nice to keep as names and references. Have they really shaped this world into a better place? Am not sure.
Actually am not sure of anything anymore.
you completely normal? you could have fooled me...hahahahahahaha
