I’m alive
Just a quick post to let my fans know that the chaos in London today hasn’t affected the sinfulness of this wicked city. I am alive and well, but I’ll keep my eyes peeled for Osama. It’s really terrible that this would happen the day after they got the Olympic bid and just before the G8 meets. It will be interesting to see if Bush uses this to derail the attempts at Africa reforms in favor of stronger “anti-terror” measures. If anything, this should serve to remind us that terrorism is a tactic and not a movement, and it’s important for us to eliminate the causes of terrorism (such as poverty, lack of education and oppression) instead of dealing with the effects of it (anti-Western sentiment). I can only wonder what may have happened had New York won the bid.
