The "real" Lee Carlson and the Israeli killing machine

Yesterday some people got upset because I posted the wrong picture of the Lee Carlson who was being paid to teach children with our tax-dollars but instead was using his time to malign me in e-mail after e-mail simply because he--- or maybe she--- was upset that I was pushing the idea that Minnesotans had a right to know where the Minnesota Democratic Farmer-Labor Party stands in relation to its position concerning cutting of all aid to the Israeli killing machine after the pogrom of the Palestinian people the entire world witnessed in horror (I won't say disbelief because many of us have known for a very long time what this Israeli killing machine was capable of doing)--- expecting that if they protested loud enough and long enough the mass killing of human beings by the Israeli butchers being funded with our tax-dollars would stop.

Not only did the Israeli killing machine not stop; but, the atrocities grew by leaps and bounds with every passing day and night... there was no crime against humanity that the Israeli killing machine did not undertake... and when this Israeli killing machine had completed every known dirty crime against humanity; this monstrous beast created by the United States government and U.S. corporations invented crimes against humanity--- crimes which were perpetrated upon the Palestinian, crimes against humanity not seen, or heard of, before.

I blame Lee Carlson for these crimes against humanity as much as I blame George Bush and the "President-elect," Barack Obama, who decided on this one and only issue he would remain silent--- disgustingly and shamefully silent.

Do we have to see the picture of Lee Carlson to know who was hurling insult upon insult upon me while being paid to teach children?

Not really.

Actually, we can take our choice of any picture of Lee Carlson who refuses to disclose his or her identity.

Here is Lee Carlson:



Here is Lee Carlson:



Here is Lee Carlson:



But, the only real Lee Carlson is this Lee Carlson:



Yes, this is the face of every uncaring and insensitive Lee Carlson in the Democratic Party... I actually found that there are at least 38 Lee Carlson's in the Democratic Party, at least four here in Minnesota... there is no evidence that any of these Lee Carlson's are anything other than this Lee Carlson:



While there may be a difference in the way each and every Lee Carlson in the Democratic Party looks... what I found is their thinking is relatively similar to that of Brian Melendez--- who is the face of each of these Lee Carlson's--- when it comes to issues concerning the way people live... and in the case of Gaza, the way Palestinian people die and suffer.

Tomorrow the Minnesota Democratic Farmer-Labor Party State Central Committee will meet... absent from the agenda will be the question:

Should the United States continue funding and providing aid to Israel?

Why will this question be absent from the agenda? Because there are one too many Lee Carlson's in the Minnesota Democratic Farmer-Labor Party?

The answer to this question is obviously, "no."

The problem arises because the Minnesota Democratic Farmer-Labor Party is part of the two-headed monster (Democrat and Republican)which gave birth to the Israeli killing machine; and Brian Melendez--- a corporate attorney who is part of the Summit Hill crowd--- is the choice of the big-business community and St. Paul Chamber of Commerce and the Summit Hill Club here in Minnesota; a corporate community--- a killing machine in its own right--- which derives huge profits from this Israeli killing machine. A corporate community which will not tolerate any discussion on the question:

Should the United States continue funding and providing aid to Israel?

Brian Melendez is Lee Carlson.

Lee Carlson is Brian Melendez.

Brian Melendez says that I "hurt my cause."

Lee Carlson says that I "hurt my cause."

Both malign me; both are using their attacks on me to evade discussing the question:

Should the United States continue funding and providing aid to Israel?

In fact, I could drop dead today and join the more than 1,300 Palestinians murdered by the Israeli killing machine... in attacking me in the same breath as claiming this is "my cause" the Brian Melendez' and Lee Carlson's of the world who engage in such dirty campaigns of hate are in fact defending the gross atrocities of Israel perpetrated against the Palestinian people... because Brian Melendez and the corporate crowd in control of the Minnesota DFL are so pathetic, so despicable, that they will single out one person to attack instead of addressing the real concerns of most of the world's peoples.

I just might be the most rotten S.O.B. to ever walk the face of this earth as the slanderous, vicious and malicious websites set up by the hacks of the Minnesota Democratic Farmer-Labor Party all over the Internet--- under the guise of anonymity--- portray me to be... but, there is no place for Brian Melendez and his bunch of worthless political hacks to hide and run to evade the fact that they, by their outward silence and silent complicity worked out in detail behind closed doors in corporate boardrooms, can evade their part in these crimes against humanity carried out by the Israeli killing machine which the entire world has witnessed in Gaza.

So, Lee Carlson, you won't provide your picture for me to post along with your pathetic, hateful e-mails attacking me personally in the most mean-spirited way thinking that your pathetic, gutless and cowardly attacks will bully me into silence as our tax-dollars are squandered financing pogroms carried out by the Israeli killing machine... let me assure you that you and Brian Melendez and the DFL candidate from 32-B still have to explain to the world why the MNDFL State Central Committee will assemble tomorrow, Saturday, February 7, 2009... and while the entire world looks in horror at the suffering and ruins of Gaza... you are afraid to have a discussion, knowing what has been done in our names, with our tax-dollars, and after demonstrating that you have the ability to make yourself heard, you do not have the moral decency to state where you stand on this question:

Should the United States continue funding and providing aid to Israel?

In my opinion, this is very, very sad... Lee Carlson, I am sure you think you have done a great service to the Minnesota Democratic Farmer-Labor Party for your heroics in joining with Brian Melendez in maligning me... but, I am willing to let the people of the world judge if my mistake in posting the wrong picture of you takes precedence over you intentionally engaging in a campaign of hate in order for the Minnesota Democratic Farmer-Labor Party to evade this question:

Should the United States continue funding and providing aid to Israel?

Once again, I apologize to you and all the Lee Carlsons who feel slighted by me posting their photograph thinking I was posting yours...

Now, will you apologize to the Palestinian people for the death, suffering and destruction done in your name because these crimes against humanity have not been done in my name... as you are fully aware of that.

Now, will you, Lee Carlson, have the moral, ethical and political courage to join me in calling for a full discussion and debate on this question:

Should the United States continue funding and providing aid to Israel?
