[Marxism] The Cranes Are Flying

[lara crete <laracrete@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

The Cranes Are Flying Over North Korea this time, comrades...
  They are flying  over the dead bodies of  the Palestinian children,  
over   millions  of  Iraqi/Afghani/ Pakistani  refugees , over Sudan,  
over Somali, over Nigeria, over every out of 1.000 military bases that  
US planted  inside and around the  global world... That's why we, the  
citizens of  the US, here have such difficulties to "to  watch them   
flying" ...
The question remains: where are they  flying  from and where they are  
headed to?

The flying cranes are usually cry. That's how we hear it.  It is  
emotional, natural  pain of separation. ( Or something else?)  They,  
probably,   know what we don't.
So, dear people, watch "Apocalypse Now": it is the strongest  pain,   
the aggressor's side did ever  manage to come with .  The Russian  
film    "The Cranes Are Flying"   is about  the pain of the innocent .  
And  we are not, as you know.

There was the Leningrad's blockade, during the World War  II. There  
was  the economic "embargo", which last more than one year. There was  
100 grams   of the sticky dark bread for a day  for the family of 3.   
Children and elders were dying and the still capable adults cooked  
"soups" out of the wood.
Those days Dmitry Shostakovich, trapped in Leningrad,  wrote his 7-th  
Symphony and Russian poet Anna Ahmatova, - her "Requiem".
So, dear David, economy of the North Korea STILL is ok, comparing to  
the Russian "economy" during the time of the World War II. Yet, the    
human gifts  of the  7-th Symphony  and "Requiem"  were  handed to us,  
the next generation.

My friends  from New York  once have visited North Korea and they came  
out glowing.            LONG  LIVE THER NORTH KOREAN  NUCLEAR DEFENSE!  

" I'm on North Korea's side. That's ALL I have to say THIS week. Well,  
that
and how everything CNN and the rest are saying is bullshit".
