I am very sorry to see that the Green Party thinks
that Al Gore's name is something they want to be
associated with. "How soon we forget" that while
he was Vice President of the United States, a
million Iraqi civilians -- half of them
children! -- died as a consequence of the brutal
blockade we maintained against the Iraqi civilian
economy. Sure, the blockade was established by
Bush I, but Clinton-Gore maintained it with
bloodthirsty efficiency. Al Gore never challenged
the blockade, and in fact defended it on numerous
occasions.
As long as we adulate mass murderers, we will be
led by mass murderers. Mass murder is
antithetical to permaculture, especially on the
scale typically wielded by governments.
