An Email from an Anarchist Friend

The following is a text from an email I received from a Portland-area anarchist, after soliciting one of their ilk to be a guest on my radio show:

******************************************************
"Greetings corporate media radio shill,

My friend salaud has fwded me some correspondence regarding your request to talk to a real, live anarchist in order to (apparently) publically reprimand him or her for the audacity of some who burned an effigy of a soldier recently. Although I am not necessarily an anarchist (any political ideology is too limiting, in my opinion), and although I have no intention whatsoever of helping you with your right-wing talk show, I did want to respond via email to your tone of righteous indignation.

I am wondering where you were, Mr. Corporate Media Guy, when tens of thousands of innocent Iraqi civilians were burned to death with white phosphorus in Fallujah. Did you experience any nasea, any moral pangs, any righteous indignation then? Or do you save that sort of thing for burning dolls rather than real, live, burning people?

Just curious.

Sincerely,

an autonomous being
(One not co-opted by the corporate media, despite your best efforts.)"

I can tell this probably won't be the most amicable relationship.
