A bird's eye view of the vineyard
Holy Gospel according to Saint Matthew (10:26) and Saint John (8:32)
Trust not in princes, nor in the children of men, in whom there is no safety. His breath shall go forth, and he shall return to his earth; in that day all his thoughts shall perish.
Holy Prophet and King David (Psalm 145:3-4 according to the LXX)
To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never to forget.
Arundhati Roy
Thou shalt not be a victim.
Thou shalt not be a perpetrator.
And above all,
Thou shalt not be a bystander
Yehuda Bauer
He who sees the truth, let him proclaim it, without asking who is for it or who is against itHenry George
In a world of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary actGeorge Orwell
Each small candle lights a corner of the darkRoger Waters
I am prepared to die, but there is no cause for which I am prepared to kill. I object to violence because when it appears to do good, the good is only temporary; the evil it does is permanent. Strength does not come from physical capacity. It comes from an indomitable will.Mahatma Gandhi
I am for truth, no matter who tells it.

I am a pessimist by nature. Many people can only keep on fighting when they expect to win. I'm not like that, I always expect to lose. I fight anyway, and sometimes I win.

The international media is in a frenzy regarding the Nasrallah interview yet they were quick to champion free speech when they gave an open mike to Shamil Basayev by US government funded RFE/RL journalist to spread disinfo and propaganda on Nightline in the US in the lead up to the 1st anniversary of the Beslan massacre and on ITN here in the UK and some affiliated channel in one or all of the Scandinavian countries.
