SPDF Day 36. vlog. Doctors visit, blood work, psych eval, etc.

It's about 11am on April 7th. This is an update on a variety of things.

This morning was a review with my Sainted Doctor, about the results of yesterday's bloodwork. She said everything looks fine.  She has me on a regimen of two, horse pills, of potassium every day. She also has me on a multi vitamin. They are both seemingly doing their jobs.

My eyes have gone blurry as has happened on prior fasts.  To read anything on computer or my tablet it must be held very close to my face, but thankfully that seems to work ok.

I had a candid conversation with my Doctor about my concern regarding her concern as to my mental health.  I told her it was nothing I needed her to resolve, that I am capable of surviving the situation; but that I could not assume she understood how important she is in my life and work, so I told her briefly, that she is one of the only people I know whose life , and work path, I respect; this Georgetown grad that has devoted her life to we homeless.  And that I wondered if she could imagine if one of the people in her life that she most respects raised the question about her mental health, particularly as it relate to using her greatest skills in the direction that they found questionable, such as ministering to the poor. I asked her if she could image how troubling she might find that, especially if this individual she highly respected was entirely wrong.

I expounded a little bit, but she understood my point and as I stressed what I wrote about last week after seeing her and a psychologist that she asked me to speak to, I made no assumption that she was questioning my sanity, this wonderful Doctor. I took her at her word that she was just trying to be extremely cautions, and today she only emphasized that and explained that she wanted to be extremely sure that the medical work that has gone on with me over the last two years, major operations, had not had some impact my psychology. She indicated that although she didn't see it, at all, she wanted to be extremely careful with another opinion.  I made it clear that I was not second guessing her, but that it is an issue of importance to me, and I feel that it was entirely resolved this morning.

I told her prior to creating an opening for her to provide a response to me, that I just outlined, that my campaign is entirely about sanity. That no credit to me I have worked my way to a position of sanity and exactly I am trying to address the mass insanity in our culture which has lost any all notion of an adult sacrificing their own life constructively so that the young can have a future, whether it is a habitable planet to live on, one with some shreds of democracy left in America, or one without the methodology of police state being perfected on an indigenous population in Palestine, and that technology being exported and brought to oppressed peoples worldwide including in the United States.

My assessment is that it was a very comfortable, brief, conversation, and my sense is that this person in my life in whom I have a great respect, although I would not put her in the postition of stating so exactly, does not have a concern about my mental health and understands and respects the work I am doing.  So that was quite nice.

Rain is expected on and off today, tomorrow and the next day.  I expect to be here in front of Narcotic Paralyzing Rubbish Radio through lunch time and to leave and hopefully get back to the shelter prior to when at 3pm rain becomes more likely.  And tomorrow and the next day I anticipate coming back here during those parts of the day where rain is less likely.

I am feeling particularly weak today, but it turns out I had enough strength to change the tire of a young lady whose car I passed, an African American woman, in front of the Union Station area, a fairly posh bakery and lunch spot. She was holding what I recognized to be a jack in her hand, and looking rather dazed, like she didn't know what to do with it. I don't think she did know what to do with it.  She was surely intelligent, but it was folded in such a way that it took me several minutes how to take it apart.  So I had the strength to do that.

To her credit afterwords she offered me $20 which of course I refused. I did tell her she could help me by watching my belongings for a few moments and by giving me a $1 to offer to the restaurant manager so he would allow me to wash of my hands, the grime off my hands, from changing her tire.  Happily she agreed, the restaurant did not require the $1 which I happily returned to her; and I think she experienced this as an event that she will probably remember for some time; and when kindness is so remembered, sometimes they propagate themselves.

***** SPDF Day 35: "The reason behind US support for Israel becomes clear...." MUST READ.

The reason behind US support for Israel becomes clear if you consider what would likely happen if Palestinians became autonomous or if they became the majority in a democratic, multi-ethnic state. Either development would upend American-enforced “stability.”

Palestinians in Jordan and elsewhere would attempt to exercise their right of return. Repressed peoples across the Middle East would rise up to demand the kind of freedom from dictators that the Palestinians secured from Israel. Palestinian liberation would trigger a chain of events that could entirely free the region from the American grip as people demand that they — not monarchs and not Western corporations — benefit from their oil.

That’s why the US government’s proclaimed support for Palestinian liberation is as unbelievable as Netanyahu’s. Anything more than a severely attenuated Palestinian state would jeopardize America’s seventy-year old — never-altered — priority. And that prospect, not The Lobby, is the primary reason that the United States stands virtually alone against the rest of the world in unconditionally supporting Israel’s violence against Palestinians.

The alliance of right-wing Republicans, neoconservatives, Jewish billionaires like Sheldon Adelson and Paul Singer, and Benjamin Netanyahu and right-wing Israelis, is an axis of no compromise that feeds and feeds off of hardliners in Iran.

Have we forgotten that the Republican right and its neocon brain-trust were behind the invasion of Iraq -- the single stupidest foreign policy decision since the Vietnam War? They have never been held accountable. Yet many of the same Republicans and neocons who smugly asserted then that we had no choice but to take out Saddam Hussein, including William Kristol and John Bolton, are now refusing the deal with Iran.

SPDF Day 34: vlog. My unrecognized assumptions at the beginning of this death fast are not working out terribly well

My unrecognized assumptions at the beginning of this death fast are not working out terribly well.  I'm thinking of two unrecognized assumptions in particular:

1.  That the, immediacy, the horror, the barbarity of the west's terrororization of Palestine yielded a situation that was concrete enough that we walking dead Americans would show a heightened response, any increased propensity to tap into our humanity and respond.
2.  The other unrecognized assumption is that the Palestinians, both the Palestinians in Palestine that maybe somehow become aware of this death fast campaign, and the Palestinians in the United States Diaspora, would have a readiness greater than any other population I've seen thus far, to be drawn to an understanding of the necessity and unique power of the death fast.

All evidence that I have so far suggest that these were entirely false assumptions. 

Today for example several different small groups of Palestinians stopped by an identified themselves during my 12 hour campaign at the White House.  I found no more sense of urgency, no more sense of immediate family kinship between themselves and the Palestinians being tormented in Palestine, then I've experienced in other populations concerned with global warming, for example.  This is very disturbing and somewhat shocking to me.  It certainly was unanticipated by me, and as I reflect more broadly on observations I can make I do not find these reactions today to be abnormal or an exception.  I've had significant contact with people concerned with Palestine through my face book interchange up until about a week ago, and it became ever more apparent that they were involved, as is the chicken, but not committed as is the pig.

This will factor into my thinking as to how far to take this death fast.  If a tree felled in the wilderness does not make a sound does it make sense to finely chopped it down?

SPDF Day 33: MAJOR BOOK REVISION 3 - STOP PALESTINES DEATH FAST

https://www.scribd.com/doc/260324627/Stop-Palestines-Death-Fast-Rev-3-040415

***** SPDF Day 33 vlog: Why play chicken with death , or worse?


Gandhi was adamant and explicit that he was just scratching the surface of the practice, perfection, expression of nonviolent action.
So I'll not apologize for my own self recognized inadequacy in expressing, let alone fully grasping, my own attempts at radically powerful, utterly transformative, world direction changing....  If only in the attempt, efforts.

And let me be explicit on this last point.  No part of me is interested in being a band aid, a slight dragon on, the extermination of the Palestinians, the elimination of the final shreds of democracy in the United States, or the end of all livable life on earth.  I'm not interested in 'doing something about' these issues.  I'm interested in stopping these atrocities, or failing spectacularly in the attempt as is of course profoundly likely.

I have no respect for the efforts of me or anyone to confront these issues.  I disrespect that.  I profoundly disrespect that.  I see it as profound cowardice.  If your child is dying and only an impossible miracle can save your child, I have nothing but the profoundest disrespect for the efforts of the parent that 'tries to do something' rather than devotes their very being to trying to be the miracle.  And so I feel about my efforts, and those everyone else above the age of 12, in the face of these three unfolding Armageddon's that I frequently mention.

As I've spoken before, and as I will continue to speak, each time trying to better understand, and better articulate, what has me in its grasp...  Why this playing chicken with death that I am now in the midst of being past 30 days of no food, and thereby passing the time threshhold when physical death, permanent mental impairment, blindness and such things become a physical potentiality?

Why playing chicken with death as I am?  Well, I am not 'playing' anything.

I am waging every breath, every be of my heart, to beat all three of these impending Armageddon's. And that's impossible, and that has never been done, and no one has tried, and no one is trying, so I'm on my own to plan, strategize, analyze, attempt, invent, articulate....

Early in this death fast I wrote a centrally important post, must read, on the law of social change, which is the law of suffering, which is the law of paying a high enough price.  If I had $1,000,000,000,000 it would not be enough to stop all three, or even one, of these impending Armageddons.

I do not have $1,000,000,000,000.  I do not have $1000.  I have no care about either because they are irrelevant to what is needed.

What I do have is that which is of ultimate value among the few human beings that are alive, the ultimate value, a human life, my own human life.  This is what Gandhi recognized in himself and others as the ultimate value to be wielded for goal.  This is what Martin Luther King Jr. recognized as the ultimate value that if wielded intelligently, boldly, aggressively, with consummate generosity, with total courage... could buy a substantial if not huge change in world, or at least national, direction.

What I'm doing is nothing more or less than what these greatest among us have attempted before.  I have studied, and I study, with every fiber of my being, their examples, their lessons, their spirits, their essence, to attempt to incorporate in myself and in my efforts every drop of wisdom, of value, that is to be derived from their prior efforts, and dozens of those like them throughout history.

I am profoundly accountable for the constructive use of the life I have been given for the service of humanity.  It would be practically impossible for me to take that responsibility more seriously than I do.  I experience my life as a sacred trust I have been given to be used purely in the service of humanity.  And I feel the profoundest joy and realizing that's the only reason I have that life.

I could not take that responsibility more seriously.  I totally understand that that means that in the face of three of the greatest calamities ever faced by the human species, that means that if I am being conservative, if I'm being cautious, if I'm being careful, if I'm being timid, if I'm being self protective...  I have already desecrated that sacred life that I have been given, and all of humanity that I was placed here to serve, just as you were placed here to serve all of humanity.

If I were interested in cars as I was as a sick individual in this culture through my forties; if I saw an automobile that set me afire with lust; lusting to possess that car, and I had access to the tens and tens of thousands of dollars that it would require to purchase that car, and maybe it was the only car of its type that would be available for many many months, I might figuratively yearn with all of my being that  I could get immediate access those funds of mine, fast enough, and deliver them quickly enough, and favorably enough, then I could secure that car. On smaller or larger scales this would be deemed profoundly normal and appropriate and even admirable behavior in our sickest of all cultures.

Well, that is the desperation that I feel in my attempts to parlay my life, in whatever most intelligent form of delivery I can conceive from instant to instant, based on changing circumstances that I monitor instant by instant every waking breath.  That is the same desperation I feel in delivering my life in the way that will best confront and thwart the three looming Armageddon's.

What I am attempting to do should be so easy to understand.  It is so easy to understand for me that it is hard for me to imagine any other way.  But I wasn't always of this mind.  I was raised to survive and thrive in the Matrix, not outside of it, as I've been these last 10 years or so; well, really, for all of my life, but explicitly these last 10-15 years.

It is obvious based on my total isolation and solitude in my activist work, and never as much as in this final campaign, that no one understands what I'm doing.  Yes, no one understands what I'm doing, because were there wiser than I, who understood what I was doing, and perceived that it was a suboptimal way of pursuing the goals I am pursuing, they would have the kindness and compassion and humanity to speak to me from that obvious depth of understanding that they had and to attempt to show me the error of my ways.

 And it no time in the last 10 years of my devoted activism has anyone, ever, at anytime, even approached doing that.

SPDF vlog Day 33: My dearest loved ones, you were right. We never belonged together.

My very dearest loved ones, those few of you that have been in any proximity at all to me, be it for all of my 63 years, most of my 63 years, my last 40 plus years, all of your 30 some odd years, the last 15 years, or even just recent months,
We are not emotionally together now, we're emotionally separated now, and we were never spiritually joined.  True spiritual joining is so rare in this sick culture of ours, practically never happens, one in a million.

As I think of those of you who have been in proximity to my life no discredit to me, no discredit to you, we were never spiritually together except for maybe a moment here or a moment there in just one maybe three of the cases I can think of (with the exception of my Dad with whom I was intimately, and only, Spiritually United)..

It's not your fault.  It's not my fault.

I worship, I revere, I adore the truth no matter how painful it might be in the same way any drowning person reveres firm land coming under their feet.  That firm land makes Life possible, without it, only drowning is possible.  We are taught to tolerate and even find pleasure in drowning.  I never learned that lesson.  When I'm not standing on, when I don't understand, when I'm not grasped by the truth, I experience myself as drowning and in entire misery.

This Stop Palestines Death Fast campaign I am on has produced a final separation with maybe all of you.  One in particular, the person who I have loved above all, has finally manifest her separation from me totally, frigidly, sharply, finally, absolutely, Truly.  I view this with a sense of relief, gratitude, Joy... all of these separations, simply because the manifest the underlying truth that I think we all must have realized was there.  All of you to whom I am referring, to some degree we wanted to be spiritually together, to some degree we wanted to be in relationship, and to some degree you and certainly I realized that spiritual unity was not the Truth for us.

Several days ago I vlogged, wrote that for the first time I am recalling that I had extremely sharp eyes for spotting people that belonged on extreme performance teams that I needed to establish, and to spot those who did not belong on those teams.  And that as expert I was at that I admitted that I have been that much of a failure at spotting other relationships that should be or not the in my life, that could or, in the vast or total majority, could not work.

That same insight of just several days ago applies to what I am sharing here.  All of you who have been in some proximity to me, I can see now, using the eyes that I now know to select, I concede now that we had a mutual desire and affection, but that it never could have been; I see that totally, so clearly, now.  We are not destined to be on the same teams, on the same missions, devoted to the same goals.  I am a profoundly different species of human, sort of.  You are the profoundly different species from me.  You are the near total majority. I the near entire outsider, foreigner, alien.  You are of society. I am devoted to heal it.

No discredit to me.  No discredit to you.  No credit to me.  No credit to you.

I find this comforting, comforting with respect to my future, comforting with respect to feeling less clueless, less of a failure but that's not a problem with me.  But less of a failure in that I see that what I wanted so much, spiritual unity, was not a failure of my efforts, but a failure of my initial and ongoing perception, vision of what was possible, which is now being radically corrected.  And surely I don't see it as a failure on your part anymore than on mine.  Round pegs don't fit square holes, and versa visa.

My loving of you all is unconditional.  It is neither increased nor diminished by these insights of recent days.  My Loving of you is infinite.

What separates us exactly is the capacity for a life of unconditional loving.

Whatever life I have left will be devoted to being unconditional loving  for the possibility of thereby, and only in the way, spreading unconditional loving by example to you and others.

Yes.  Of course.  The odds are that I will continue to totally, profoundly, absolutely, pitifully fail.  But I'll not fail to try, with my every breath.

***** SPDF vlog Day 33: I SEE NO LIFE, NO 'NEVER AGAIN,' NO HUMANITY, NO SANITY... JUST WALKING DEAD LIBERALS. NO?

In the movie the Matrix we're led to believe there are millions or billions of humanoid creatures.  What we see in the movie, do we consider them people who are alive?  Except for those fighting with their lives for the well being of humanity, that one in a million, no!  Central to the notion of the movie, we do not view them as humans,  live humans!

We don't look down on them!  We're not lead to be derogatory to them!  We're not lead to feel superior to them!  But absolutely we are led to understand them as not-alive, walking dead people.

And the one in a million that are alive don't go away on vacation someplace, they fight with their vary beings to try and give life to the millions or billions that have been deprived of it!

Tomorrow is Easter, a pagan holiday, candy, an orgy of food, surely one of the most segregated, least Christ-ian, least Universal-Family  days on the planet.  Totally un Christ like.  But somewhere tucked in  there is the memory of a man named Jesus who in the best way he knew how, gave his life exactly and precisely to wake up his fellow human beings who he's saw to a person to be walking dead people.

Were Jesus is to be alive today, were Neo and Morpheus to be alive today, would they see things any differently than they did in the time that they existed?  They would not!

And in the case of The Matrix, Jean Baudriallard, the French philosopher, conceived of that story exactly to show us what he thought we were in his lifetime, which I understand was written in the late nineties or thereabouts.

Was Jean slandering, belittling, looking down on... us?

Was Jesus slandering us?  Jesus was horrified for us.  He did do anything and everything with his life for the sole purpose of trying to give life to us.

Morpheus and Neo did the same!

I see it the same way as they did that and do. EXACTLY.

I want more than anything for life to come to my current brothers and sisters for themselves and so that there is life for all of creation in the future.  And like them, no credit to me, so far I am aware of no price I wouldn't pay to give a prayer of that happening.

NOTICE: The exceptions prove the rule.  ISM, Indigenous peoples standing against the machine, some of the Christian Peacemaker Teams....  But that's about it. The chicken is involved the pig is committed.  Jesus was committed.  Morpheus, Neo, Gandhi, Selma marchers, Tahrir Square... were committed. 2015 US 'activists' are involved... walking Dead in the face of ALL THAT IS GOOD IN THE FINAL SECONDS OF BEING DESTROYED.  WALKING DEAD... BY DEFINITION... NO VITAL SIGNS.

SPDF vlog Day 32: Physically, today is starting to be different, tougher...

Over all I've been amazed at the strength that my body has had.  Today it is starting to be different.  My eyes are quite blurry.  I had an errand to do today, it was raining so being out witht the posters was precluded.  When I tried to walk up the steps into the shelter my legs felt dead as I don't recall my legs ever feeling before.  About half an hour ago I was studying a video of Malcom X and the next thing I knew a fellow came by and gently shook my shoulder, I had sort of passed out.  At only 6:00 today I want to be crawled into bed.  It'll be extinct and see how this plays out.

***** SPDF vlog Day 32: This could change things... Is his handling of Iran central to to President Obama's handling of Israel Palestine, or has president Obama been AWOL on Palestine as I have thought?

This could change things.  I had not been considering the impact of the Iran negotiations on the response of president Obama to Israel and Netanyahu.  And this may have been a major oversight on my part.  I don't know how long it will take to see whether or not that is the case. 

Netanyahu is furious about the Iran deal not for his stated reason of Iran being an existential threat to Israel, but because it is an absolute threat to the hegemony that Israel has been allowed in the Middle East, tyranical reign over countries in that area. 

If the deal goes through, and certainly it looks as though it will, what does that do to the prospect of full human rights for the Palestinians?  How conservative has President Obama needed to be to get this far in the negotiations with Iran?  How much of the inaction on his part was due to this? 

Although I had lost confidence that president Obama, I had previously been certain that Pr. Obama detests Israel's barbarity as much as I do.  I concluded that I was mistaken.   Maybe my mistake was in not understanding that these Iran negotiations are his most effective means of boxing Israel in and getting a just resolution for the Palestinians,

SPDF vlog Day 32: I knew how to recognize and pick business associates. I should've seen that picking 'frieneds' is the same, for me.


I was good if not extremely good at identifying associates, partners, team members in business that were up to the Herculean tasks that were always my focus and responsibility in business.  I can see who could do the work, quite clearly, I could see who was not up to the task, quite clearly, I could see when they were attracted to the mission, and I can see when they were not capable of that. 

These skills of mine for which I take no personal credit were instrumental to the business success that I had.  I always had an important, ultimately important, role to fulfill on the team, but never did I achieve any substantial results except as part of a maniachally committed, massively focused, heroically motivated team of individuals.

It has only just occured to me in the last couple of days that in my personal life, and in my activist life these last 10 years , I've been as unsuccessful at my associations as I was successful in business. 

It is occurring to me now that I was using an entirely different mindset in the two different situations and that this was a tremendous mistake. 

I believe that the healthy individual lives to achieve important human missions and that everything else is to be subservient to that in the healthy person, and I mean physiologically, psychologically healthy.  Therefore one should not use different considerations in whom they associate with in a any aspect of their life , certainly not in the most sacred of pursuits, activism.  But I have viewed it entirely differently and thereby wasted a tremendous amount of time of other people and of myself. 

It's not a matter of blaming myself, or of absolving myself blame.  I've done and will always do the best that I can but I think I've just gained a massive new insight.  I need to consider each and any association from the perspective of the entirely mission oriented individual that I am.  This is a very optimistic consideration for me.

SPDF vlog Day 32: For a decade have I misungerstood the problem: Is it a 'follower problem,' not a 'leadership' problem?

Am I guilty of the proverbial seeing every problem as a nail because my only tool is a hammer? 

I don't think so but thinking along this line has occurred to me for the first time in any of my campaigns.  

By training was in leadership in graduate school back in the mid seventies.  My avocation and vocation have been leadership ever since.  I learned fairly quickly in industry that my only interest was in urgent situations that required a dramatic turnaround to avoid disaster, and that by my only skill was in such urgent situations, rather, the skill that aligned with my greatest strengths, and with my interests, passions.  I learned that I have no interest in, and no apparent talents, in normal situations.

More specifically what occured to me is that relative to Palestine,, saving the last remnants of democracy in America, stopping ecocide, it is not a leadership problem but a follower problem that we have.  That is, the denial among the American people is so catatonic, so sick, so deep, so all powerful that leadership may not be the problem,

But I think leadership is the only solution.  Leadership,, being among the first to do what a healthy, loving, sane, not catatonically delustional personl person does in the face of a 68 year torture and torment of another people, the Palestinians, by one's own government. 

It is so much lonelier than what I ever had to do in industry.  The motivators for the groups involved were so much clearer, losing their job, going out of business, losing their income....  So the followers were, if not always, often, ready to do their part.  There is no evidence of that in any of the three problems that I've mentioned.  Quite the opposite.  It appears that the followers will avoid taking personal responsibility no matter what.

So I think I was mistaken to have this doubt.  I'll continue to consider it, but maybe more than ever it is a leadership problem.  Being among the first to act as a human being should act in the face of such horror.

My large intestine has been shut down since the first week.

But never like today.  There was no way I could stop the torrent.  Thank God I've been 'wearing' a large hand towel just in case.  Thank God I had on rain-pants for warmth against the 25mph gusts today, or otherwise with the stench, I'd not have been allowed into Union Station for the 30 minute clean-up. Fell into my cot on return.  Very weak now, taking liquids.  Must see if my doc can prescribe some rubber pants for me.

SPDF Day 31: Netanyahu - "No, I do not think the Palestinians have a right to an independant state."


Ben Nitay aka Bibi Netanyahu feat. Fouad Ajami from arabist on Vimeo.
A 28-year old Benyamin Netanyahu, calling himself Ben Nitay, debates on the 1978 US TV show "The Advocate" against Palestinian self-determination and intriguingly suggests West Bank and Gaza Palestinians could have Israeli citizenship. He is debated (or rather questioned) by Fouad Ajami, now professor at Johns Hopkins University's SAIS. Note that Bibi says that while he opposes a Palestinian state, he thinks Palestinians could vote and have full rights in either Jordan or Israel - essentially endorsing a one-state solution.

SPDF vlog Day 31: Paragons of mental health, who are they? Martin Luther Kin Jr., Malala, Gandhi, Abraham Lincoln, Malcom X, Oscar Romero.....

Paragons of mental health, who are they?  Martin Luther Kin Jr., Malala, Gandhi, Abraham Lincoln, Malcom X, Oscar Romero, the young people in Tahrir Square several years ago, some of the soldiers who have stood against war such as the Vietnam War war or the war on Iraq and Afghanistan and surely the soldiers in Israel that are standing against israel's barbarity on the Palestinians. 

The greatest of all of the formal psychologists Alford Adler said that health, the healthy choice, tends to lie in the direction of courage.  For him the hallmark of health was a social interest.

The greatest psychologist of all in that the truth of his insights have had a greater impact on humanity than the insights of anyone else, I'm referring to Jesus, his core notion was universal family, one Father making us all brothers, and his life and words commanded us to go and live our lives accordingly.  Lay down your life for your brother.  The good shepherd lays down his life for the flock.  As you do unto the least of these you do unto me.  Whoever would hold onto his life shall lose it, whoever would lose his life shall gain it.  Love as I have loved, and of course he ran into the arms of death.  King ran into the arms of death, as did Malala as did Gandhi, as did Malcom X. 

Only the most twisted would perceive that they had a death wish, that they wanted to die, that they wanted to be Martyrs, whatever that means.  And today it means some sort of twisted slender.  They wanted to ransom and redeem their suffering brothers and sisters.

For all intents and purposes there is only one way for the human being to get what they want and that is to pay the price for it.  The ultimate price that anyone can pay, and therefore the ultimate power that any individual has to affect what they want to affect.  Is their life, paying their life is the ultimate price they can pay for the ultimate value that they want. 

As Dr. King said so often and so many different ways, the person who does not know what they would die for is not equipped to live.

Whoever thinks that their own life is their ultimate value is already dead.  All of the individuals I mentioned lived, live, accordingly by whatever belief they might have.  They live accordingly because this is the law of our DNA, it is what is written in our DNA because it was ultimately addaptive for having our species produce generation after generation of human beings. 

This healthy nature is rarely seen in our sick culture, our western culture which is more and more the world's culture which has embraced a lower side of human nature, the capacity for morbid and suicidal self centeredness.  But this is not what we see in aboriginal cultures, human beings in an environment like that which we were designed for. This is not seen in other species, this morbid and suicidal self-centeredness.  It is not seen in any species except for cells that become cancerous which no longer devote themselves to the well being of the group but only to their own selfish interests.

SPDF vlog Day 31: Zionists are the Satanic in the guise of the Godly. ...



Zionists are the Satanic in the guise of the Godly.  That's not slander by me.  It is a statement within the bounds of our limited language to state as clearly and factually what they are as I am able.

One can disagree with the statement or agree.  But it is not slender.  It is an attempt to express a monstrously important truth, a life and death truth, for the physical life of the Palestinians, and the spiritual life of the Zionists who are my brothers and sisters.

If I am slandering, if I am wrong to say what I'm saying, then Martin Luther King Jr. was wrong.  "Nothing in all the world is so dangerous as evil in the garb of virtue."

Wisdom of the ages is captured in the notion that Satan is the great deceiver.  Satan is consummate deception.  And that can be, and maybe usually is, self deceptions first..

The point is not that the Zionists know that they are making of themselves creatures of consummate evil, surely some are certain they are creatures of good. 

But by any measure of Judaism, by any measure of the life of the man Jesus, they have made of themselves consummate evil. The Ku Klux Klan were not Christians.  The Christian Zionists are the spiritual descendants of these crazed evil embracing, people.  The Zionists of Jewish background are the equivalent of the KKK.  They are the antithesis of the historical Jewish values of justice and righteousness preached by the prophets and practiced by the profits and practiced by great and godly individuals of history like Abraham Heschel and contemporary figure's like Henry Siegman, past head of the American Jewish Council and the Jewish Congress of Rabbis, and the Jews who are speaking out in Israel itself against the barbarity of Zionist behavior and who are paying, and are risking, ungodly social and potentially physical costs.

SPDF Day 30 vlog: On Sanity, and Insanity

I consider it insane to value our own survival over a decent quality of life for our fellow human beings.  I consider it sane to be glad to give our life if it might save even one other human being.

I consider the desire to control the lives of others is insane, pathological, and that sanity is the willingness to pay joyfully with one's life if necessary that others can be free of the control of any one beside themselves.

I consider it insane to choose a life of pleasure over a life of service, and that sanity is exactly choosing the life of service over a life of pleasure.

I deem that our American culture is profoundly insane.

It seems to me that the only sane cultures that I see today are the indigenous Palestinians, although I can't yet reconcile how they keep having children in such a hellish environment, seems cruel and selfish; some of the indigenous of America and Canada  that are putting their lives in the way of the destruction of their/ our world. 

Among so called activists I see only the International Solidarity Movement as probably very sane; along with, possibly, Sea Shepherds.  The rest I see as wallowing in a self-gratifying lifestyle choice of doing what is safe and convenient, or even more so, but by not being willing and eager to pay the ultimate price for our fellow humans, as I said at the top, insane.

SPDF Day 30:  It is not inconceivable that in 2-4 weeks time that I'll conclude that I have wielded the Death Fast for as is long as  is constructive, this time....

I am unable to put my finger exactly on what it is that I am sensing this morning.  But I suspect that it is at least possible that by 2-4 weeks from now I will conclude that this death fast has provided as much benefit as it can provide at this time in 2015 and that I will be better able to serve Palestine by terminating this death fast rather than to let it run its full course.

There are a number of factors that I did not expect that have raised this prospect in my mind.  I believe my  expectations at the beginning of this I stated fairly clearly, I expected this death fast to have no impact until after it terminated me.  That's how sick I thought we were.  But I did not anticipate the aggressive , extreme , distancing that I have experience from the few people who had remained at all close to me in my life, with maybe two, possibly three exceptions .  I take this as a sign that we are even more morbidly willing to amputate anything and everything close to us or far away so we can maintain our self centered , cancerous , world killing individual, self-centered existences .

Also I must conclude that it is possible that by now whatever Palestinian Diaspora in Washington, DC has some slight idea of what I have been doing in front of the capital and now up in front of NPR until Congress gets back next week .  I must conclude that there is some slight awareness and that I must attribute some significance to the fact that there has been zero out-reach , zero support , zero encouragement , zero dialog .  Zero visibility.

I wasn't  smart enough , or maybe I realized it just wasn't my job , to take the time to anticipate how this community would react , but I do consider it now .  And I consider that this is evidence of a soul-dead Palestinian Diaspora which I did not anticipate.  It seems that they have been so infected with the western culture that they too feel that there is nothing that they would  sacrifice , gladly, their own personal well being for .

This is a level of spiritual death in relevant communities beyond what I had anticipated .

If these perceptions hold and or develop within me then they place me where I wound up in the late or middle of my prior death fast , perceiving that I was conducting the death fast in a graveyard .  Surely conducting any kind of action to inspire the action of others in a graveyard is not a good use of time .

This analogy does not hold in that there may well be an online of record of this death fast ,, which I am working diligently to provide, that could serve people in the future .  But nevertheless I am seeing indications that it is absolutely a graveyard I am conducting this in beyond even what I had understood .  And if these perceptions old within me then I may conclude that I can better serve Palestine by terminating the death fast before it terminates me , or,  maybe not ,

I could terminate the death fast today based on these perceptions but I think that would be premature .  My confidence that death fast is the only weapon to save Palestine , save any last remnants of democracy in America , stop ecocide ...  are only strengthened by these perceptions .,honor an hour.  But that my termination at this moment or 2 to 4 weeks from now would add any value to this current demonstration of the weapon has this morning arisen as a question in my mind.
