پست های قبل از سفر

The problem though is not limited to the fact that these folks are exceedingly illiterate people and have in fact cheated their employers into hiring them for what they cannot deliver. The problem is that what they say sells, and that what they sell helps justify the dropping of bombs on innocent people. Look at the horrid propaganda machinery at the service of the Zionist project here in this country, a project that people like Elliot Abrams are hired to serve—there is, this is what I am suggesting here, a direct relationship between the bombs that Israeli fighters are dropping on Lebanese civilians in Qana with total impunity and the propaganda legwork that people like Foad Ajami and Bernard Lewis for decades and Azar Nafisi and Abbas Milani over the last few years have provided to their employers—services that amounts to positing the so-called “West” as the civilizing arbiter of truth, and as such instrumental in denying, silencing, or criminalizing any voice of dissent that cries against the atrocities and war crimes of the American army in Falluja and Haditha, for example, or of the Israeli war crimes most recently in Qana. There is a vast and pervasive evidence of a general public lethargy in this country, an incredible degree of moral apathy, and a political indifference that I link entirely to the way that this pestiferous propaganda machinery operates and manufactures what I have called a collective amnesia, punctuated by a selective memory. This is what I mean by privatization of knowledge production.

قبل از رفتن دیدم نمی شود این را نگذارم که بخوانید. مصاحبه حمید دباشی با فواد خوسمود. جانا سخن از زبان ما می گویی.
اگر قبل از سفر چیزی دیدم که جالب است، و فرصت کردم که اینجا بگذارمش، حتماً این کار را خواهم کرد که لیست موسیقی پایین این پست تنها چیزی نباشد که قبل از رفتن تقدیم تان می کنم.

----------------------------

در دو سه روز آینده باید وسایلم را جمع کنم و راهی خانه در برکلی شوم. سفرم با ماشین از شرق به غرب امریکا یک هفته یا بیشتر طول خواهد کشید و چون در راه برگشت دسترسی به اینترنت نخواهم داشت در این وبلاگ تا مدتی نخواهم نوشت. بدرود.



-------------------------------------

لازمه بگم که عکس از اینجاست و موسیقی پشت عکس هم مال راجر واترز هست و از اینجا اومده؟ قانون کپی رایت تو اینترنت وقتی رایت کلیک هست چیه راستی؟

-------------------------------------
