How very considerate of you.

It is a scandal in contemporary international law, don’t forget, that while “wanton destruction of towns, cities and villages” is a war crime of long standing, the bombing of cities from airplanes goes not only unpunished but virtually unaccused. Air bombardment is state terrorism, the terrorism of the rich. It has burned up and blasted apart more innocents in the past six decades than have all the antistate terrorists who ever lived. Something has benumbed our consciousness against this reality. In the United States we would not consider for the presidency a man who had once thrown a bomb into a crowded restaurant, but we are happy to elect a man who once dropped bombs from airplanes that destroyed not only restaurants but the buildings that contained them and the neighborhoods that surrounded them. I went to Iraq after the Gulf war and saw for myself what the bombs did; “wanton destruction” is just the term for it.

– C. Douglas Lummis, political scientist

I think that sums the double standards really well.

Prince Charles had family targeted and killed and he has managed to move on. Were your family also targeted and killed and is that why you can't do the same?

So did Gerry Adams.

Yeah, he moved on too. But people who were much less directly involved, seem unable to move on. Weird ain't it?

Kilkenny's a nice town/city (I am really no longer sure what cities in Ireland -are- cities anymore, I'm used to the original five, but I think it's morphed past that definition long-since.) Still about time Waterford annexed Ferrybank though! Most of the effect of anything going on in Ferrybank affects Waterford a lot more than Kilkenny.

Probably just as well not to send Prince Charles to Waterford though. Some good things to see, but it's not the best city for just wandering around. The last few times I was there it looked like it had been abandoned in the early 90s and forgotten about. And Waterford wasn't really doing well in the early 90s. Also, god knows what the Ferrybank cliff would get painted with if he was going there.

Anyone know if it's currently blue and white, yellow and black or did they keep the ceasepaint of green, white and orange?
