“PHONETICALLY SPEAKING” To reflect the fast pace of world news, my blog is probably best served as a stream-of-consciousness text. Fast and unadulterated. With this approach, and on first encounter, text might not seem to scan. This is because I am dyslexic. Instead of keeping the proof-readers busy, I would rather let my blog updates of my visual work stand as a record of my experience of dyslexia, which I am keen that you now get to enjoy too. Unlike some news outlets, I hereby excuse myself the need for a ‘corrections’ section! The excitement of a new language is something I’m quite familiar with, and it is with this ‘joie de vivre’ that I am delighted to guide you through my thought and work processes, more phonetically (than fanatically) speaking.
WW2 Camp for You
Retired US General Wesley Clark suggested that the radicalised youth of American, British, French and German nations should be segregated in the way Nazi sympathisers were held in camps during World War II in the USA. These camps were built to hold the Japanese population of America along with anti-war citizens. One of the largest communities held were Jehovah witnesses, who are renowned for their pacifism. They were experimented on using torture techniques, LSD and there was even 12 witnesses who were given malaria then put through a series of tests until they died.
“In World War II, if someone supported Nazi Germany at the expense of the United States, we didn’t say that was freedom of speech, we put him in a camp, they were prisoners of war,” he said. “If these people are radicalized and they don’t support the United States and they are disloyal to the United States as a matter of principle, fine, that’s their right. And it’s our right and our obligation to segregate them from the normal community for the duration of the conflict.”
General Clark “radicalized” people would include the tens of thousands of U.S. citizens who have been placed on terror watch lists and the infamous FBI “No Fly List” even though they have never been convicted of any crime, and in most cases have never been arrested or questioned.
Also, I am banned from the United States, due to my political Artwork with the Lawful Government of Hawaii. If they brought General Clark’s law I would be on the list to.
