Good bye Mrs. King

Today is Coretta Scott King's burial today, the wife of Martin Luther King Jr. IT marks the end of an era for many Americans. Yet it leaves unresolved the issue of Civil Rights in the United States of America and Canada. Today as we embark on the holy war on Terror, George W. Bush's war on Muslims all over the world, it is sad that many people have lost their civil liberties and rights to be protected from the state.

Who said the cold war was over? Instead the USA has continued a war on the rest of the world and the Muslims gave them an excuse to perpetuate a war economy and continued infringement of civil liberties.

I think the anger over the Mohammadean cartoons all but opens the world's eyes to just how far and the extent to which the west practices racism on what it perceives as the "minority" which in fact numerically throughout the world is really the "majority".

When is the west going to realize the "great" "white" "Way" is no longer the peaceful way? That by waging a war to keep it the "great White Way" does not guarantee that it will continue?
