Just enough empty promises to get in. Only a revolution would clear up the desk, and clean the country. <br /><br />I can't photograph my books, but here's how I see the American Story on my bookshelves *(writers are below):<br /><br />A BASIC HISTORY OF USA<br />THE PROMISE<br />TERRE DES HOMMES<br />A CHOICE OF FUTURES<br />CIVILIZATION ON TRIAL<br />LOST HORIZON<br />LES MISÉRABLES<br />EVERYMAN FOR HIMSELF<br />VOL DE NUIT<br />BONJOUR TRISTESSE<br />IS ANYONE THERE?<br /><br />Sad isn't it?

A shame it is!<br /><br /><b>Claude</b>,<br />touché!<br />That's why I can get furious: If some - unfortunately too few - criminals responsible for torture, after all, are being called to account (in Cambdia, Liberia, Yugoslavia): why are the like of Rumsfeld, Cheney, Bush not behind bars, yet?! <br />And mind you: The most wonderful democracy on this planet enjoys to let even innocent people enjoy what they call justice.<br />Thus, again: Why - in this context - are evil members of homo insapiens like Cheney, Rumsfeld, Bush and their henchmen still alive?<br />Just a question.Sean Jeatinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08978285783271305489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5507673653895812509.post-59059685066311261572010-07-29T10:12:01.948+02:002010-07-29T10:12:01.948+02:00I'm lending you a book to put under The Trial....I'm lending you a book to put under <i>The Trial</i>.
