thank you mr. jensen. being non-judgemental is not easy to do and it seems that you go one step beyond. you are a teacher. it is a daily struggle simply to be aware of the propaganda and lies and sterotypes i learned as a child. being aware is one thing but the difficult move is to get out ot the habit of knee-jerk and auto responding. it is a daily struggle but reading an article like yours make the struggle (to become sane) worthwhile.

When Jensen writes lately I think I hear cocks crowing.

What does he think critical engagement is?

Has he asked his Pakistani students who they think was responsible for 9/11? (Possibly patriarchs at the top of the world patriarchy chain?)

I doubt it.

Jenson not only shies away from the subject of 9/11– he runs from it. (To devote his gifted intellect to contemplating motes.)

No other writer on the left has disappointed me as much as Jensen– save Robert W. McChesney.

Could either talk about Elias Davidsson’s quest to find evidence that Muslims were even involved hijacking planes on 9/11? (There is a story for Project Censored!)

Davidsson, has found no shred of proof.

But few, especially among the propagandized Left, know of this man whose individual courage is equal to Rosa Park’s.

Robert, if you ever find , anywhere on this earth, a place where these differences and distinctions, realities of gender, consequences of supply and consumption and all the many other aspects of unfairness and inequalities cease to exist, are replaced by a utopian culture of fairness and equality, please give me a ring. I’d like to go there and I promise to ‘behave.’
I’m pretty sure it will feel just like I’ve died and gone to heaven. Make that high heaven.

Where to next? China? India? Madagascar? Tibet? Swaziland?
Sometimes you sound like a little child of six or seven, who closes his eyes real hard and and tries to wish it all away, but must ‘grow up’ and face the unpleasant realities of life on earth as it is not in heaven.
That’s not to say you aren’t an obviously wonderful and compassionate man. You are.
Keep up the good work.

P.S. Good Luck with the Presbyterians. . There are of course, INDIVIDUALS who are of help, who are realized, but the majority are ‘typical.’ And I ought to know. I worked at the Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary for 23 years.
