''Neo-Conservatism'' and ''Capitalistic Libertarianism'' is nowadays called ''Democracy''! Administrations invade countries to ''free'' its peoples... and forget about their own. Words have no meaning anymore... It's part of the plan... Ah! Language and semantics are so important. Orwell was just right! And it's just human nature, we would all use language to prevail if we could, wouldn't we?

Hollywood crap films are getting Oscar nominations and are being acclaimed by critics worldwide. Millions of viewers pay a ticket to know why the MI6 agent likes his drink shaken... Crap-dildo pop ''music'' is messing up the airwaves killing ethnic cultures, talent, artistry and purity, conditioning so many young kids to do just the same when they'll get older. Who wants good music anymore? Sure not the industry, they just need a product to sell... And millions of deaf ears out there as well. That's why nobody is really LISTENING to music nowadays; we're just WATCHING low paid curvy females shaking that *** in gangsta videos. Ah! Music is the most important of the arts, it's more important than the plastic (visual) ones because it allows one's mind to roam freely into space and time... Dionysus, Nietzsche and Jim were absolutely right! And yes it is human nature again, we can all travel through music, can't we?

The system calls for our need to buy and consume! And our month's pay is more than a Ugandan's life pay!

An agnostic, a reader, a leftist, a hippie, an artist, a reader, a maniac, anyone who would just not accept anything for granted but would doubt and question it, is just unwanted. Even though this person would finally come to accept by choice that ''anything'' for truth.

But would that be the person's own choice or someone else's? Why would that someone want to change he person's choices? Who are these ''someones'' after all? And why would the person accept the very thing he resented so much way back when he was younger?

For millions of reasons, self-preservation and greediness included. It's part of the game. Yes, you've guessed it, its human nature again we all know the feeling, don't we?

Has anyone noticed how many ex-hippies or punkers have sold themselves off to become CEOs and high ranked Managers, Secretaries of State or even Presidents?

I think you got your answer Koq... And don't get me wrong here, I'm not patronising anyone and I'm not pretending to be better than anyone else by writing all this. I'm an expat just doing my job here, getting my pay - saving it for the kids - yes, having some ''quality'' time playing my guitar every now and then. It's only times like this though every once in a while that I would read something and get down posting on the web... I think I ultimately want to even periodically wake my own self up by reading my own posting, you know, just to cut the distance between me and my inner thoughts!

Let's all do the same, for good or bad, we're in Qatar, we've got plenty of time!

P.S.: DIMOKRATIA?? Are you Greek by any chance COQ?

DIMOS: The People
KRATOS:The State, the Social Rule
DIMOKRATIA: The political system whereby the People have full power over the state and the social rule. It's a utopia, it has never actually occurred. A short exception might be the age of Pericles back in the 5th century B.C., the time when the Parthenon was built.
