The Politics of Shit
There has been a recent and deliberate
breaking loose of sewage systems
across the West Bank.
The strong topography allows Israeli settlements
and Palestinian cities to spill their sewage through
the valleys toward each other.
The Palestinian municipality of Hebron was
awarded a sewage-recycling farm from the
German government.
But its operation was halted.
According to agreements,
the project was still regulated
by the Joint Water Committee.
It needed Israel’s permission,
and Israel might demand a quota of the water.
Since then,
to put pressure on Israel to concede the waters,
the municipality of Hebron has been spilling its
residential and industrial sewage into the
Hebron River that flows, via three settlements,
to the outskirts of Beer Sheva in Israel proper.
Non-existent or disintegrating underground
pipes allow sewage to flow overground the
length of some Palestinian refugee camps.
This visible shit testifies to day-visiting
official guests of the Palestinian Authority
of an inhumane permanent neglect,
the everlasting problem of the refugees,
consequence of the yet-unresolved conflict.
Efforts by different NGOs and UN departments
to repair this system of infrastructure with permanent
underground plumbing have often been rejected by
the Palestinian Authority.
They can allow no real improvement or
investment in infrastructure until the
refugee camps are considered
permanent settlements.
Sewage is a political weapon when
dislocated from the bowels of the earth
to the overground.
When shit is invisible underground,
it is merely sewage, running through a
technically complex system of public plumbing.
But let it only break loose over
the surface, and sewage
becomes shit again.
The latitudinal co-ordinates affirm
the nature of the substance.
When sewage overflows and private shit,
from under the ground, invades the public
realm of the street, it becomes simultaneously
a private hazard and a public asset –
to be used as a tool by the authorities.

This state of affairs is also common
in the Palestinian refugee camps on
the West Bank.

You've claimed to have served in the US Marine Corps
in Vietnam....
Please...
What was your MOSC?
What was your Unit ID
What was your Major Command?
How about your Division? Surely you know that!!
The USMC keeps meticulous records, just tell us your division
and command, and the years you served. The rest will be easy.
You don't want to be known as a liar, now do you.
Besides, falsely claiming to be something as noble as a US
Marine, particularly one who served in Vietnam, would border
on treason, now wouldn't it? I'm sure you don't want that,
we're all waiting...
cheers..

Of course if I were to discuss having served in the Camp Evans or Firebase
Eagle areas in 1966-67...would that make me guilty of treason? I guess that
would mean I'd have to rip off my Airborne insignia, eh?
Leave the Marines alone....you REMF's have no idea....none whatsoever...

NO, if you say that you were a soldier while you hadn't been, you are not

No, it was not directed at you, but rather at the idiot who posted it to
begin with. He and his cohort in idiocy Rev have made this claim hundreds of
times, not in order to refute anything I have said, but simply to try to
annoy me or discredit me. As if I care. The bard said it 500 years ago:
"it is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing "

Which is not the case, and I have the holes to prove it :)

I have absolutely no doubt that you are lying. You have now taken the
second step in certifiable falsehoods by embelishing your first claim by
now claiming to have been wounded in action. Provide the details of
your service and I will cease and desist. The honest fact is you don't have
a freakin clue what MOSC even means. But then again, Mickey, you just don't
have a freakin clue period, do you??
Please...

No, I believe that was a reference to Aubrey, who is one of the most
flamingly anti-Semitic morons ever to wander these newsgroups. One who is
so desperate to inflict anti-Semitism on everyone else that he twists the
truth, changes the subject, and just totally avoids the issue to begin with.
He approaches TorresD with his creativity in this.

The arabs have been spilling sewage into the Hebron River for over a
thousand years. Have you ever been to an arab village? The
shitheads live up to their knees in shit, and don't give a shit about
it.
