We shall soon be having Christmas at our throats again.
Feeling depressed by the gap between reality and wishful dreaming? While companies are siphoning off the funds for your welfare, and Dubya continues his works of evil, you may enjoy this video (German spoken - translation). Download it, it helps.
And instead of stuffing the homeless with fritters till they're sick for once in a year, you may consider this:
AlterNet: "Can you spare $25 bucks? Thanks to a new nonprofit, a few clicks of the mouse lets you loan it to a small business halfway across the world."

AlertNet: "Pope Benedict said in an annual peace message on Tuesday that countries have a duty to respect international humanitarian law even if they are at war.
In the first peace message of his pontificate, he also appealed for worldwide nuclear disarmament and said countries considering acquiring such weapons should 'change their course'."

Scotsman: "The United States has set aside $500 million over the next five years to secure a vast new front in its global war on terrorism: the Sahara Desert."
I bet the countries involved have oil fields.

Scotsman: "Britain is set for a U-turn on its commitment to send thousands of troops to fight in Afghanistan next year, with some in the army now questioning whether the mission should be abandoned altogether."

WashingtonPost: "Teams of undercover air marshals and uniformed law enforcement officers will fan out to bus and train stations, ferries, and mass transit facilities across the country this week in a new test program to conduct surveillance and 'counter potential criminal terrorist activity in all modes of transportation', according to internal federal documents."
Beware of trigger happy fake Santas!
