You'll get emails whenever I post articles on OpEd News

I am a student of history, religion, exoteric and esoteric, the Humanities in general and a tempered advocate for the ultimate manifestation of peace, justice and the unity of humankind through self-realization and mutual respect, although I am not a pacifist, nor do I believe in peace at any price, which is no peace at all but only delays inevitable conflict. There are times when the world must act. Planetary consciousness is evolving, but there are many retrograde forces that would drag us back down.

I have also written one book, a combination of poetry, photography and essays entitled "Post Katrina Blues", my reflections on the Gulf Coast and New Orleans two years after Katrina struck. Go to the store at http://sanfranciscobaypress.com/ to purchase. And I also have a blog called Plutonian Mac.

WILLY PETE DOES FALLUJAH - Fallujah, the Guernica of our Times, Part 8 This is the last of a series detailing the destruction of Fallujah by the American military culminating in November of 2004. This article focuses on the horrific use of white phophorus against humans in the final assault, despite initial Pentagon denials. It also explores the concept of the Fascist Plague, a term first coined by Wilhelm Reich against the Nazis some seventy or so years ago. It is perhaps time to resurrect it.

Reel Bad Arabs - Confronting Stereotypes Media critic Jack Shaheen wrote a book that has now become a just-released film exploring Hollywood's decades-long history of stereotyping Arabs, a history with disturbing similarities to anti-Semitic and other racist caricatures throughout history. And these stereotypes have had a lethal effect on the collective American consciousness, not to mention foreign policy.

Why Haitians Don't Like UN "Peacekeepers" (UN MINUSTAH) in their Country: Video Testimonies There is a common misconception among a great many people in the world that the UN military presence is benign, selfless and humanitarian, but in reality MINUSTAH was sent in to "stabilize" the Haitian people shortly after a coup d'etat against popular and progressive President Bertrand Aristide in 2004 that Aristide says the US abetted. In otherwords, the defacto UN Mission was to solidify a Right-wing coup d'etat!
