Kofi Annan

It's a sad day when we start to ridicule Kofi Annan, if there's one man in this fucked up world who gives a toss and actually makes a difference, its Kofi.

You could have just had the UN logo plastered on your face, but no it had to be more personal...

Big business has it's claws wrapped around each and everyone of us, some of us are ignorant to this, some us don't mind (?) and some of us fight it, Kofi has to be one of the latter....

nice one.

Wasn't he an ex-director od Coca-cola?

wasn't he an ex-director od Coca-cola? and he has been the person in charge whilst the UN has been taken over by corporate interests! He may not be a bad person - but he certainly can be held responsible for the sad state of affairs at the UN earth summit!

fuck Kofi Annan and the UN

There's no hope with the UN - it may have ineffectual figureheads but its essential function is the promulgation of the New World Order and thus is evil in terms of suppression of the world's population, as are related organisations like WHO , UNESCO and so on.

The organisation is indeed a tool of the ruling elite - true anarchists shouldn't have too much difficulty in shoving aside learnt prejudices and accepting this is so.

Quantum physicists and mystical philosophers agree that physical forms manifest as a result of mental projection, because conscious is all there is. Therefore, we produce the assemblage of molecules we perceive as physical form in order that we may understand time on Earth with our minds, which ordinarily work in linear terms. This means that anything outside our personal reality appears to be nonsense or ridiculous, so we label that information as crazy or delusional, and then ignore or condemn it. Therefore, some people cannot perceive certain ideas or objects that are in plain sight because they just don't have the breadth of vision to comprehend or mentally grasp the situation.

Ideas that are not consistent with whatever we believe to be real and true create psychological discomfort in us. This discomfort leads to the denial, repression, or avoidance of new information. Some individuals identify the Higher Self, the "self" that sees the big picture, with the personality, the personal self that is wrapped up in experience or a particular belief system. When the personal self is threatened by new information, these people may react as if their very lives were in danger. People are afraid to be wrong, and pride makes them hesitant to admit it. This stanches the ability to absorb new information, even if it is right before their eyes.

look into the eyes.....

I've observed Kofi for years, you just have to look into his eyes to realise he's genuine. I'm not even trying to justify the existence of the UN, just trying to protect an individual whom I believe to be good... In these strange days you can only judge a person by looking into their eyes....Working it on the inside is just as valid as working it on the outside.

New World Order? While some people persist the UN et al will eventually decree a New World Order... some of us are busy fighting the NWO which we were born into. It's here.. now.
