This Image Shows What Colin Powell's 2003 UN Press Conference Would Have Looked Like. He Was Promoting the Insane Bombing of Civilians in Iraq... Just Like Pablo Picasso's Guernica Painting... That was COVERED BY SHEETS so it would Not be Visible During the Press Conference...

Colin Powell gave a Press Briefing at the United Nations

where he explained the Reasons for going to War in Iraq.

Press Briefings are always held in front of Picasso's Painting "Guernica" that depicts Insane death from the sky.

Powell was proposing starting a war that would have a lot of

Insane Death from the Sky... 

SO HE HAD JANITORS COVER THE PAINTING AND HE SPOKE IN FRONT OF A WHITE SHEET...

A Brief History of the War In Iraq. OOPS, We Blew Up The Wrong Country. On 9/11 Fourteen (14) SAUDI ARABIAN Hijackers Flew Airplanes into The World Trade Center. Five (5) Were NOT Saudis.

George W. Bush (the Son) felt that He Could NOT go to War with The ACTUAL people that Caused 9/11 so he had the CIA write FALSE Reports so he could start a War Against Iraq. Years Later We Learned that Iraq Had No WMD, Had No ties to Al Qaeda and Had Nothing at all to do with 9/11.

PAINTING BY RON ENGLISH

One of the high points of my life was performing "Uncle John's Band" at the Rainbow Gathering in Idaho. I met a young man and showed him the Chords and Lyrics that I had written down in my spiral notebook... After we played that song, he said: I don't want to learn any more songs, let's just play this one again...

We were sitting in the shade at the "Relaxation Station"... the very first place everyone walked past after leaving the parking lot... A lady was doing Tarot Card readings and we were passing around a bottle of TEA with some kind of stimulant in it... Someone told me it was ephedrine...  it did make me feel alert and optimistic... Since there was a constant flow of people walking by, it made perfect sense to Play the Same Song Again and Again and Again... Give the people what they want... 

There was a big meadow surrounded by forest and most people were camping under the trees. THEN... all of a sudden... the people out in the meadow were pointing up at the sky... dozens of people were talking excitedly and pointing at SOMETHING... So I stood up and walked out to the middle of the meadow and saw... a giant "Sun Dog" rainbow covering half of the sky. Ice Crystals at a Very High Elevation refracted the sunlight to make an astonishing display of colors... That's why everyone was cheering! This Gathering was near the Sawtooth Mountains... a truly miraculous place to camp...

On another day I played the Song "Aiko-Aiko" many times and walked all the way around 5,000 people waiting for dinner. They were sitting in a series of big circles... The Rainbow Gathering serves a big free meal every day in the afternoon. Everyone meets at Main Meadow and relaxes while the Servers dish up the food... Usually a Vegetable Rice meal... In theory, all a person needs to bring to the Gathering is a CUP... because many people put a lot of effort into buying and cooking and there are usually a dozen kitchens set up all over... The concept is that IF EVERYONE BRINGS FOOD AND SHARES, WE WILL ALL HAVE ENOUGH. I brought a couple of cans of Bugler roll your own tobacco and donated it to the "Nick at Night" tribe. They roll up cigarettes and distribute them freely to the group... You certainly wouldn't want to run out of smokes at the Gathering and suffer withdrawal symptoms... It's more fun to simply BLISS OUT and enjoy the bounty...

For the Complete Story... 
I went to the gathering with a goal in mind. I wanted to play my guitar and sing in public. Yes, mission accomplished. Living in Chico, California and working at the plastics factory when there was a layoff, my wife suggested that I borrow the car and drive over to the gathering. My friend Mike Jensen wanted to go and so we checked the oil, brake fluid, transmission fluid and water and set out on a classic American road trip. We made it as far as Reno the first day and slept by the side of the road. Read More:

On a Weekend that has the People on the TV NEWS Rioting, I Noticed that Things are Pretty Good Here in Rural California. Those People Over There are Behaving Crazy and Not Having Fun... Glad I'm Here and Not in the City!

I Often Question IF the People I See On The TV NEWS Are Real... and then I Change the Channel, Turn Off The Sound and focus my Attention on the Birds Chirping...

Trump is in favor of killing people in Yemen... Lockheed's profits are more important that schoolchildren... what a sick person...

What, didn't his MOTHER teach him the difference between good and evil?

What ever happened to Moses and the Ten Commandments?

Thou Shalt Not Kill... was that a Mistake?
