When in Doubt: Hire a Mercenary
What do you do when you lack political clout, the willpower to send your politicized troops to take action, and your bureaucracy is so peacenik they refuse to let the guns fire? Hire the private sector.

So the organization that hates privatization, business, the west and taking action may be forced to hire a privatized security force to stop the blood shed in the Congo. After leaving their own people out to dry the UN may hire the private sector step up and deliver the quality service that the UN is lacking.

First they defied a basic principle of demcracy...
The GVRD is total crap. First they started raising their own taxes without being elected representatives (like they were EU bureaucrats or something) and now this. GVRD directors take 60% pay increase

*the* quote:

"And then it seemed reasonable in this day and age to have a fee of $200 for what amounts to a half a day's work."

Hmmm, I'm going to go out on limb and say that you've never had to work a real job in your life.

Live! Tonight! M'F'N Zeppelin!
Please, please please let them show this in canada.

She is Beautiful! the girl is Beautiful!
Long live Andrew W.K.

The popular uprising continues in Iran
The student's revolt is growing and the mullahs are trying to put the country in lockdown.

Here's what the MC Yeats would say about this:

The Second Coming, WB Yeats

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.

Surely some revelation is at hand;
Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
Troubles my sight: somewhere in sands of the desert
A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds.
The darkness drops again; but now I know
That twenty centuries of stony sleep
Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?

The centre can't hold. Fool. And from the school Nu-revolt:

Township Rebellion, Rage against the machine

Yeah, so you thought you could get with the hardlines
That fill your mind
Thoughts, battles fought
And lessons taught
Yes I'll display the fitness
And flip like a gymnast
Raise my fist and resist
Asleep, though we stand in the midst
Of the war
Gotta get mine
Gotta get more
Keepin' the mic warm against the norm
'Cause what does it offer me?
I think often it's nothin' but a coffin

Gotta get wreck
'Till our necks never swing on a rope
From here to the cape of no hope

Now freedom must be fundamental
In Johannesburg or South Central
On the mic, 'cause someone should tell 'em
To kick in the township rebellion

Yeah, what about that sucker?

Exactly: What about that sucker? "Freedom should be fundamental", not "fundamentalism is freedom"
