Sunday 12 February RNW - NEWS AND ANALYSIS FROM THE NETHERLANDS IN 10 LANGUAGES, WORLDWIDE 24/7 ON RADIO, TV AND ONLINE
Matt O 1 January 2010 - 4:18am / USA

Airport screening is an experiment intended to discover the limits of abasement to which the general public will subject themselves. It's quite amazing, actually, to see thousands upon thousands of folks lining up for their daily/weekly/monthly portion of abuse.

We have allowed our governments to grow well beyond their capabilities. Nay, we have begged our governments to grow beyond their capabilities. There is no enemy, there is no right, there is no wrong, there is only power that must be exercised; power that is concentrated in the hands of narcissists.

We only claim to be civilized; we lack the courage of true civilization.
