Emotional me: tell them about her tell them about her
Rational me: Ahhhhhhh…. Shut UP!!! WAIT!!
It seems that I missed a lot of events last week.
Some of my friends were emailing me asking about what I think about the beheading of an American hostage… and about how ugly and primitive was that…
What can I say…
As Faiza said once… why do they have names and faces for each one of their dead people, and our people appear in abstract numbers and figures all the time.
I mean… no one can say that what happened was pleasant or enjoyable, but taking this incident and putting it outside the context is like fishing in muddy water.
Maybe the most interesting thing that I heard was about the parents of the American beheaded young man saying that Bush is responsible for what happened…
I agree
In the messy chaotic war of actions and reactions, I can’t see anyone else to blame rather that the Bush administration…
I mean…
They started the mess, and they must be responsible to receive the sequences.
Tell you the truth, I’ve seen worse images about Iraqis killed, hundreds of them, without anyone mentioning that.
Maybe the other important thing happened that the Iraqi president was assassinated, I really don’t what was his name…
But what do we say in such occasions…
mmmm…
May his soul rest in peace…
Or something like that…
I think the bush administration will hand over the authorities to the housekeeper of the governing council (in case he wasn’t killed too)
Emotional me: tell them tell them please please please
Rational me: oh my god! You are soooo pushy…
but the most important thing that happened to me was meeting Niki
Emotional me: YES YES YES
Rational me: ahhhhhhhhhhh….
she is an Irani living in the states
lost in the middle like me
emotional me: how sweeeettt
rational me: grow up habeebi…
I feel that our relationship is re-identifying my personality in a way or another…
I mean…
I really feel that some of my values are being modified a bit,,,
My social image about the eastern woman…
My image about the East…
Emotional me: say something nice here… something poetic… pleaaassseeee
Her deep dark eyes give me more faith in our world
When she speaks, I tell myself: I told you you’ll find her some day
I told you she was out there…
:*)
emotional me: How sweet is love… it’s changing his perception of the world
political me: ahhhmmm,
rational me: I think he is just having a testosterone-over-doze
emotional me: back off dude…
so yeah…
Jordan looked like a battle field last week
Streets were full of soldiers and Hum-Vees, hundreds of them everywhere…
I felt shy I bit while explaining what is happening
“well… ummm… sweetie…”
rational me: ahhhhhh… please don’t go romantic again
emotional me: no no .. I’m just telling the story, can u shut up
political me: SHUT UP… BOTH OF YOU
“do you see all of these police men and soldiers?”
“this is the real purpose of why does the Jordanian government exist”
“protecting western interests”
“protecting the World Economical Forum”
I was thinking about the same topic today, while I was coming back home from the University’s library. Today was the Students’ Board elections in the Jordanian University, and I didn’t take a part of that because the post-graduate elections are next week.
But what do the elections mean here?
Nothing!
What can the students’ association do?
Nothing…
What can the Parliament of Jordan do?
Nothing…
Democracy here is about the elections themselves… it’s not about the authorities that elected people are going to have…
This is the exact proto-type of democracy that the Bush Administration is going to build in Iraq.
A very nice, clean country, full of western restaurants and hotels, and with people lost in the details of their life, their mobile phones, their internet connections, their shopping, brands, malls, whatever,,,
But everyone know exactly were his red line is: P-O-L-I-T-I-C-S
Emotional me: can you add something about her… in the end
Rational me: I can’t take it anymore
*bang*
political me: may his soul rest in peace
